U.S. PSP launch details, pricing

[A Black Falcon]

No, what matters is how much those particular headphones would sell for on the market. Haven't you ever taken a basic business class before? Production costs don't mean everything.

One semester of Economics, and I hated the class...

Do you mean that the price it would cost in the marketplace is what matters to the consumers when they think about how much more/less/same the bundle costs when compared to the seperate parts (though the PSP doesn't look like it'll be sold unbundled, at least at first)? That would be true. I meant that for Sony, the amount of profit they could make of the PSP bundle when they add headphones would be more affected by the price it costs to make than the potential sales price...

As for how much each format costs to produce, since UMDs are basically little dvds with plastic cases around them, they should be much cheaper to manufacture than GBA carts and even cheaper to manufacture than DS cards, which are basically SD flash cards.

You think so? It looks like a more complex thing than a DS card...

As for the games, I really wish I could get Wipeout, of course. Great series. The rest? I don't know... not so much. Maybe Metal Gear Acid, but Nintendo consoles have good strategy titles too...
