Going to have to correct you.
$800-1000 is an estimation based upon what an end consumer would pay in retail dollars for similar specs. That's a generous estimation to begin with.
Microsoft, Nintendo or Sony don't pay end consumer prices; they make contracts with OEM part suppliers for bulk buys based upon projections of estimated sales in addition to contracting the manufacturing of custom logic boards that are designed to minimize components in addition to optimizing performance.
