There are so many things wrong with this article (the Wii is $250, not $260; the razor-razor blade model involves selling the razor at a loss, which the article makes clear that Nintendo doesn’t do) that I’m not sure if I believe anything from it, but the fact that Nintendo only makes $6 from every Wii sold is rather fantastic. I had assumed it was more, but I guess when you think about it, $6 pure profit is fairly good. Doesn’t give them much room to lower prices though.
