About Wii costs and so, this might be a little (or perhaps a lot) off topic, but I'll ask.

Another thread here said that Sony made 6 dollars pr Ps2 sold now, and Ps2s are selling at 80-100 dollars, right? That means the Ps2 costs roughly 90 dollars to make today. The Wii is much more powerful than that, yet Nintendo's average profit pr Wii sold worldwide, is over 90 dollars. For USA the average is then about 60 dollars. 250-60 = 190.

That means the Wii costs 190 to produce, while the Ps2 costs 90.
Let's say the Wii hardware (only GPU, CPU and that stuff I don't know anything about) costs 50 dollars more. That means all the motion-sensing stuff, the online abilities, and so on, only costs roughly 50 dollars. Why are there then no other consoles that have an additional SKU with motion sensing?
