The 360 is cheaper to produce and MS may always want the advantage of having the cheapest console. But it they were the same price, MS still has the advantage of producing the cheaper machine. So MS will always lose less money if any at all. |
I can think of no technical reason (there may be liscencing issues) why, after both companies have finished migrating most of their respective systems on chip, there should be a significant cost difference in the long run. Storage is an issue, but once the price of 16GB flash modules become cheap enough, I don't see why they couldn't put that on chip also as the 360 arcade does right now, albeit with way smaller amounts.
