One word: Inflation.

I dont see how inflation plays any part in Nintendo pricing its system.  Its priced its console launch systems at $199 for 20 years (even though inflation changed year on year; each year), could have made the wii priced at $199 (it was profitable at 250) and that doesnt answer the initial question.
