Wii Costs Nintendo $158 to Make
A while ago, Nintendo announced it was turning a profit for every Wii sold. Since Microsoft loses $200 per Xbox 360 and Sony loses between $240 to $300 per PS3, it was a particularly surprising announcement. But just how much profit? Japanese site Toyokeizai Online breaks it down:
Part - Price in dollars
Graphics chip - 29.60
CPU - 13.00
DRAM - 7.80
Optical disk drive - 31.00
Power supply - 11.30
Assembly cost - 19.50
Cost total - 158.30
So there you have it. Analysts estimate that a $250 Wii costs $158.30 to manufacture. Of course, you have to remember the Wii Remote, the Nunchuk and Wii Sports which are all included in the $250 bundle. Including costs for everything, analysts say Nintendo is making $40 profit per Wii. The Wii has already sold over a million units worldwide. That's 40 million profit for Nintendo, and some bigger negative numbers for Microsoft and Sony.

bof. Cette infos circule depuis quelques temps et je ne vois toujours pas ce qu'elle peut avoir d'interessant, à part si on est actionnaire de nintendo, et encore. Quelles déductions en tirer?
La xbox est vendue à perte: elle a des bons jeux
La PS3 est vendu à perte, elle a également des bons jeux.
La Wii rapporte des sous à Nintendo... et elle a aussi de bons jeux.
Pour la culture générale du gamer, et pour alimenter les gueguerres steriles entre marques ce genre d'infos est peu être interessante... à part ça, je vois pas trop.
