I have a hard time believing they were making 50 bucks when the Wii first came out. I think the entire cost of the Wii, controller, Wii Sports and such came to about $212, and then they sold it to retailers for maybe $234. The profit margin wasn't big initially, but it was profit nonetheless.
iSupply usually has component breakdowns. Anyone have the Wii one?
