Zero999 on 09 May 2013
let's see, wii u is 299 at a loss wich means about 250 in cost being sold for about 230 to retailers. they add 30% for profit and sell for 299.
we can consider wii u gamepad to be about $30 more expensive than dualshock 4, but that difference is easily covered on ps4 hard drive alone. then we have the expensive RAM, CPU, GPU, bigger cooler, more plastic pieces and that camera that looks like ps eye. the cost could end up around 400 dollars or at least close.
That means even a $100 loss would mean a $400 system on stores. if they won't take a big loss ($50 or less) we'll see a 450+ price tag. i guess that was the estimate anyway .
