Well, I am not really sure that the PS4 will be as expensive to produce as PS3 was in 2006. In fact, probably significantly less so.
For starters, the CPU, when PS3 was released, it had specs that were fairly high end and on an expensive to produce cell processor, whereas PS4 has more high-medium end specs compared to PCs today. 8 core 1.6GHz AMD processor is not going to be nearly as expensive as an i7 quad core 3.4GHz processor.
Drives: The PS3 also used blu-ray drives which were new at the time, and expensive to produce. Now the technology is 6 years old and quite a bit less expensive.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
