I just knew they said the price point was painful and I saw what other systems were selling for. I was making a guess about being a loss leader because consoles have done that in the past.
Yes. I’ve looked at a lot of production break downs of publicly traded companies before on what electronic and phone manufacturers pay in parts and it is so much cheaper than you would think some items could even be made for. They might have been losing a bit on the cheapest $360 one, but I’d bet they made a bit on the mid and top tier.
They didn’t lose money on it. It’s just that they made so little no other company would mess with making something like it for such small margins.
