What is the most funny  in the Cafe is that it will be probably  the same price or even cheaper to produce than a PS3

CPU: /- same price.

GPU: A little more expensive for Nintendo.

Disk drive and HDD: If Nintendo uses DVD and no HDD, the the costs will drop significantly against PS3.

Memory: Must be the double of the PS3 Memory price.

Controller: If Cafe is more expensive than the PS3, than it's because of the controller....

Conclusion->  If Cafe don't have HDD, I can see the production cost only a little higher than the PS3. But the question is what price Nintendo will request from their consumers...$399? $349?

actually the PS3 uses very expensive XDR memory and GDDR3 VRAM, GDDR5 today is cheaper than both so even with more memory it could end up being cheaper...


According to the OP, the Wii is using XDR2, better than the PS3's XDR.

Won't use it.  Rambus can't find anyone to license it out for manufacturing.
