Why is everyone suddenly coming up with this uninformed mess of an opinion?
The baseline 360 has been $199 for three+ years, and it gets deals for $149, Kinect is cheap to manufacture for them, and overall they have the best attach rate plus Live revenue/profit in the U.S, it's likely they made the most profit this BF, by a margin, as NPD always shows. Wii however was $50 cheaper this BF yet again, has the awful strong yen bringing down profits, and had those retailer deals, fresh on a price cut, (I might add, the 2nd price cut since MS cut the 360)
You couldn't actually be more wrong.
And I'm not even going into how the 3DS makes a loss for Nintendo on every unit sold, seriously ..
