I thought the Wii was estimated to be making $6 profit per console.

If this is accurate then no wonder Nintendo are passing costs on.

 

 

Full of fail. The Wii cost around $150 to make at launch, and the price has without a shadow of doubt gone down.

If something starts with "analyst", you'll do best to just ignore it. Seriously.

 

Does the $150 include shipping, marketing and any other costs?

What was the value in Yen of the $150 figure at the time compared to now?
