Nintendo generally never looses money and prices their systems at a profit out of the box. I think MS and Sony are taking a page from Nintendo and trying to get close to doing the same this next gen. The $100 price difference is reasonable considering the cost of R&D for the Kinect and the cost on the technology itself but I would venture a guess both systems are close to break even on each console sold unlike previous gens for Sony and Microsoft.
