Nintendo Wii costs $158
Filed in archive Wii by John B on December 14, 2006
costs around 158 US dollars to manufacture. This is only for the console itself, not the controllers, and obviously doesn't include marketing, research, shipping and the loads of other costs that go into a console's creation. Nintendo is the only next-gen hardware manufacturer that's actually turning a profit off the sales of its systems. Both Microsoft and Sony actually swallow some cash each time a PS3 or Xbox360 is sold. It goes to show what that the $250 you plunked down for your system paid for.- Graphic chip - 29.60
- CPU - 13.00
- DRAM - 7.80
- Optical disk drive - 31.00
- Power supply - 11.30
- Manufacturing cost - 19.50
- Total cost - 158.30
