what the bad thing he said??

that many got the wii with wii sports and a mario game and only that?

or that is cheap to make?

Well he knows that WSR comes with a free Wiimote, so he's clearly paying close attention to the market.

He's quoting non-factual attach ratios and overstating Nintendo's profit margins

The Gamecube actually cost around $80 in 2005, one year before the Wii released. So this actually makes sense.

The cube price was only for clearance, it's not the same situation.

would surprise me. PS2 it's selling 99$ making tons of profits.

The Wii is smaller and more beefy than GC...and includes the sensor bar, and more complex controllers can't be that cheap.

Wii attach rate is 8 games/shipped per system shipped ~four of which are third party games.

The price wasn't for clearance. I could find people buying Gamecubes for $100 right before the Wii came out. Also how is it a clearance one year before a console ships?

Here's proof that the price was $100 and surprisingly that was in 2003.

i think he means with the software they sell amongst it. Like the whole business will still be profitable

It was on a 1up podcast, right? This sort of thing is understandable. He's saying what the podcast's audience wants to hear.
