They should have just included a 16 GB card and priced it at 199.99 considering they are including a download copy of Playstation All Stars which will probably take up most of that 4 GB card.


They would lose even more money as 16GB cards cost $40-50.


It isn't even remotely in that vicinity in terms of cost. They wouldn't be losing that much more at all.

Maybe BenV could answer this, but I am not even sure retail stores pay that much for things like Mem cards and accessories. It's usually the consoles themselves that generate the least amount of profit over cost.

Reminds me of the days when I would buy USB cables from Bestbuy with my fiance's employee discount for $2 when the retail price was $30+. I would then go to a different Bestbuy and return them for store credit, which is what you get without a reciept. I couldn't use one since the cost showed $2. That's how I got a $600 PS3 for like $30.

Can't do that anymore since she now is the nursing supervisor in a private practice for Pediactrics. Not that i'm complaining.

Well you're right, they're actually $60 and not $40. My bad.
