Stupid import tariffs are stupid.

You are saying this is just down to import taxes?

 

Please don't tell me you also believe that the reason for this is Sony being greedy.

I havent said anyhting.  I'm just asking.  I havent calculated what the WiiU mark up is there yet or the ONE mark up to compare.

Are you saying this is just down to import taxes?

Ok, sorry it's just that I read the NeoGAF discussion and several people have said it's all cause of Sonys greed...

I honestly don't know what all the reasons are, but I highly doubt Sony would willingly release a console at almost twice the price of the competition, if they could help it. That doesn't seem inline with their message up to this point. So maybe it is taxes I don't know... maybe MS can offer their console cheaper cause they produce it in Brazil or maybe they are willingly taking the losses, which is something Sony can't really afford to do.
