You guys realize that losing a small amount of money on console sales, and making it up with accessories and software is kinda the whole point, right?
Consoles are awesome computing devices, for the price. That's the idea. Get the people to buy your hardware for dirt cheap, then sell them software (and accessories, which is the Wii's true calling) to make a profit.
You guys could argue this until the end of every console generation ever to be, because it'll always be the case (except for Nintendo, of course, who smartly manages to sell substandard hardware for profit).
If MS was making money on 360 hardware, there would be a price cut, or bundle/value deals.
If Sony was making money on PS3 hardware, there would be a price cut, or bundle/value deals.
If Nintendo was making money on Wii hardware... there would be money printing... oh wait.
