lol thats the manufacturing cost not the real price. The reason it's so high tho is because the ps3 contains a shitload of stuff. I mean, just playing video games would only make up 25% use of the console.

"When Nintendo was selling its 16-bit machine at around 12,500 yen ($114), we sold the first PlayStation at 39,800 yen ($364)," continued Kutaragi. "The press was saying that it was expensive, but it was a huge hit. It's the same thing with the PlayStation Portable from last year. The Game Boy Advance is a same handheld gaming machine, and it costs less than 10 thousand yen ($91). On the other hand, our PSP had cost 25,000 yen ($229). But people lined up overnight to buy it, and it sold out on the day of its launch. It all depends on whether people want it. Of course, I'm confident that the PS3 is a product that people will definitely want."

Sony Releases Specs for the New PlayStation

Information on the PlayStation 2 is slowly released throughout the year. In March, it's revealed that a new Toshiba/Sony 250MHz microprocessor, dubbed the Emotion Engine, will be the brains behind the unit. Early reports say that the new unit will retail at approximately $800.

Does anybody really believe Sony would release a console for that much? No
