I've got most of Nintendo's pong machines up there, there on "page 2" of the collection.

Hey guys .. thats my collection. Cool!

I've got a dslite and paid over $200 for it. Well worth it (for me at least).

But why in the world would anybody think that Nintendo would price it at $200 here. The street price for the DS lite is around $150 in Japan -- its the importers who have marked it up.

I fully expect the price here to be in line with Japans -- just like every other piece of Nintendo hardware has always done.

If the cubes a bomber, then whats the xbox? Microsoft lost 4 billion dollars over the life of the xbox only to sell roughly 20 million consoles.

Whats 20 million consoles divided by 4 billion dollars? That would be $200 each.

They essentially gave away the console for free ... and still only managed to end up in last place.
