... I wouldn’t be shocked to know the ps4 at 199 is selling at a profit

It isnt't. In the fy forecast reporting the Sony financial guy (?) stated that the profit forecast had been lowered due to "increased marketing expenses in the coming holidays" (paraphrased). You may be able to manufacture PS4s for less than that price, but the product price is higher.

Of course the profit will be impacted if you lower the price and keep the volume projected... that doesn't mean it is sold at loss.
