The problem is with the general publics perception of what a console should cost. Twenty-five years ago the NES released for $199 dollars. It's now 2009 and people still think $199 is what a console should cost.

When the NES was released people would spend $5,000 on a PC just so that they could do basic word-processing ... At a time when you can buy a $300 PC which is more than adequate to do practically anything except for playing games, why should a dedicated gaming system be dramatically more expensive than historical norms?
