Well, considering the discussion that's been going on here now it's quite clear Xbox720 will be the most powerful next gen. They could easily make a console for $500 and sell it for $400 - something Sony won't be able to do because of the strong Yen. The PS4 would probably cost 35-40k to produce. If it costs 35k Yen to make it would probably get sold at $350 for a $56 loss, or at $400 for $6 loss. If it costs 40k Yen it'll get sold for $400 for a $64 loss, or sold at $450 for a $14 loss. Doesn't this sound plausible?
This clearly tells us only Xbox could have a major leap next gen. And if WiiStation is on par with each other I figure most games will get developed for these and get up scaled for Xbox3. Thoughts? Am I understanding the situation, or am I completely off? |
Not necessarily. I mentioned a few posts up that some newer reports say MS has changed course and switched to AMDs APUs as well. Meaning it might be nearly identical with Sony, if true. Its only one source I know of (neogaf source) and I was waiting for more on it before really considering it. But, it is a possible outcome.
However, taking it from a purely financial point of view, yeah you could be right. Unless mr monkey is right and Kinect2 is part of the base asking price.

I wish I knew what you were talking about with all those AMDs and APUs, but alas, I don't =( But I get "Meaning it might be nearly identical with Sony", and if that's the case it all comes down to who's got the most diferentiating (damn that's hard word to spell!) console. If they're all in the same ballpark Nintendo wins. Hands down. Game over.
