Vectorferret said: This worries me. However, the CPU/GPU engineering prof at my university estimated that with a large enough volume, a DS could cost as little as $20 to make (not counting shipping, retailer cut etc..) so that doesn't mean the 3DS will be expensive. (I find the $20 figure way too low, but he's an expert and I'm not.) |
He isn't involved in the manufacturing of the screens and such not though. He is not exactly a reliable source for over all cost. The DS launched at $150 price tag 6 years ago though. I wouldn't be surprised to find them making a mint off of DSi.
