Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Source pins Kinect manufacturing costs to $150

@Dodece answering HappySqurriel:

I agree, and I also suspect MS will try to make people perceive XB Slim plus Kinect almost as a new system.

 

Edit: damn plus character that disappears!!!

So basically MS is selling at $150 to break even rather then lose a lot of money right away. I think thats a smart move if thats the case.

However if its only $100 and the source is wrong then MS should drop to $100 and break even at the start, and make a few $ off the games sold seperately.

I'm assuming MS just really wants to capitalize on the insane holiday buyers/rich folks at the $150 tag.



It's just that simple.
