Lol. If you go out of this that my purpose was to shitpost and derail the thread, then you really, really need to work on your reading comprehension skills. That is not what I was doing. At all.

Now you're just being a giant hypocrite, and trying to hold others to a higher standard than you're willing to hold yourself to. What technical knowledge do you have on these matters? Let's find out.

Show me your "technical knowledge". Give me a bill of matierals for such a device. Since I know you don't know what that is, I'll inform you. Give me a list of every single part Sony would need to make this PS1 classic you want in 2017. Tell me how much it would cost them to acquire the necessary parts from the suppliers, tell me which parts they wouldn't be able to buy and would have to manufacture themselves, and how much those would cost to make. Tell me how much they would have to spend in developing PCBs, and how much they would cost to mass produce. Tell me how much it would cost them to get the tooling done in the factories to assemble and package these devices. Tell me how much Sony would have to spend in R&D developing things like the operating system, PCBs, PSN interface, controller interfaces, better upscalers, game testing etc. that would be needed for this device. Please, go ahead and break it all down, and tell the world what kind of margin Sony can expect to make on such a device if they sold it at $99 which you claim they should easily be able to do.

Bonus questions: Tell me how much Sony would save per unit if they would to create 10 million of these vs 1 million, since you're so familiar with "Economies of Scale". 

Put up, or shut up.

"Give me a bill of matierals"

YOU need to give me a BoM, you made the claim an industrial giant like Sony can't make the console I want for a decent price. The onus is on you to prove your ridiculous claim.

"Since I know you don't know what that is"

Is it so hard to debate like a civilized human being? From the beginning you've been shitting on this thread with your assumptions, lies, deceit and your deplorable conduct. "Carry on folks nothing to see here" to the "your ideas are bad" just because you don't like it is nothing but classic shitposting. I don't need this arrogance in my thread, you need to be able to deal with people who have different opinions than you, and if you can't, express yourself accordingly or better yet: don't post.

Ohh okay, so I need to prove your claims aren't true? You can just claim whatever you want, and it's true until someone proves otherwise?

Nope.

I'm sure it comes as a surprise to nobody that you're arguing from ignorance.

So you think it's going to cost $99-$149? Go ahead. You made a hard claim. Back it up. Sony being an "industry giant" isn't going to save you from your nonsense.

I'll say it again. Put up, or shut up.
