| Dolla Dolla said: 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? |
Both of my numbers were based purely on production cost and sale price. I have no idea how much they actually make after shipping, retail markup etc...If I had thought about it I would of specified before. In any case like I said neither of those numbers are meant to be taken as absolutes. As I mentioned one is what I had heard and the other was a pure guess.
