I assume that's where Microsoft's '1 billion consoles this gen'-comment comes from, they'll need to keep selling it until 2050 to break even. O_o And people thought WiiU's Gamepad was expensive. |
Doesn't seem to be that far fetched.. Creating all those models.. New technology to get the latency down 20%.. Patents for that.. Setting up production lines.. super high quality molds for the production lines etc etc but at 60 bucks.. MS get what? 20 bucks from a controller? Thats only like 5 milion controllers to be sold..
MS had 10 billion dollar R&D budget.. Sony 5.5 billion.. 100million is nothing cause it includes setting up the production line
Face the future.. Gamecenter ID: nikkom_nl (oh no he didn't!!)
