"When I bash the Wii in price. I think 250$ is a ripoff. 200$ is for nintendo to make some profit. 150$ for them to break even, and 100$ to sell at a loss like microsoft/sony do on launch.
"You could buy a GameCube for 130$Add my 40$ of parts, and then spend 70$ to put a wiimote/nunchuck on it. (hey, this is all retail prices)I'm still lower than 250$ How does that make 250$ a good value."
I won't add the cost of an extra nunchuk and wii remote, simply because by doing so I should also add the cost of a Sixaxis to the PS3's total anyhow.
Therefore, by your assumptions, the Wii is a GameCube plus the motion stuff: 130+40$ in parts = 170; 250 at retail means Nintendo is making $80 per console.
"The PS3 really only costs about 500$ to produce."
Therefore, you are saying Sony makes 99$ per console.
So Nintendo is overcharging consumers by making 80 bucks a pop, while Sony is being nice and fair by making 99 bucks a pop?
"I would say in 1 year it will drop down to about 300, and in 2 years about 200. Giveing in 2 years most likely a near 300$ PS3. And then they might re-release the 20gb PS3 for like 250$ The PS3 is too expensive at 600$"
Let's see what I can say about the Wii:
"I would say in 1 year it will drop down to about 200, and in 2 years about 150. Giveing [sic] in 2 years most likely a near 150$ Wii."
