Motion Controller	$0	$50 (much better estimate than Pachter's IMO)	$60 ($100 starter probably means $40 game and $20 PS Eye with $40 PS Move controller w/sub controller)
Total	$310	$560	$475

 

Fixed, of course I did have to estimate the motion controllers.

lol, you removed all the useless stuff but left the WiFi. Also, the premise was casual gaming

Also, on a serious note, I just recently checked the PSEye costs and it runs $40 new. In all seriousness I breakdown the "starter" as so. $40 eye + $50 wand + Playstation Sports Resort (I really have no clue what it is called). This way it is actually a deal vs. buying everything seperate.
