This thread is total fail, and most of the comments are total fail.
Talk about rampant ignorance, go LISTEN to the podcast. You will learn two things
1) He said "well, not really" or something to that effect after he said Nintendo could sell Wii for 80$ - his entire tone and manner were totally facetious, he was joking around -it was not intended to be a serious statement. He followed up by saying the point was Nintendo still has room to reduce price, Sony and MS not so much.
2) Hes an extremely bright guy with tons of insight and it is an amazing podcast filled with all sorts of interesting information. Like how much NPD is off ( as much as 30% under ), how much it costs to fully localize and market a game like Yakuza 3 ( 6-700k ) , and a couple odd decades of computer science and game industry experience.. and he is extremely forthcoming and open about things where most ppl say "no comment" Probably the best, most enlightening industry interviews in years.
