Technology is aways expensive a first though. and look at the PS3 having the hoursepower of super computers of around 10 years ago for US$599 launch price.
and look at games they cost up to US$100 in the early 1990's and NEO-GEO cartrages cost US$200-$250 a pice. then when Games moved to CD that is when the price whent down.
