True they have a different model for the pricing of their games. They can't really take huge losses on their hardware and remain in business, unlike Sony and MS there aren't other divisions to help absorb losses while keeping the company afloat. Do you remember the $600 PS3, were they "helping consumers out" or did they flop hard at that price and realize the market wouldn't tolerate it ...
I'd also say the $60 a year for online play is super consumer friendly. Granted MS and Sony seem to have better servers but they are still asking you for $300 to $600 additional dollars from you per gen (based on a 5 to 10 year hardware cycle) on top of the console price.
