Bueno, pues seguimos con los rumores, que si poca potencia, mucha potencia, Haptico, no haptico, 3D, sin 3D...
Ahora nos llega un rumor que dice que los materiales que lleva Wii U cuestan 180$. La información viene de un sitio no especializado en videojuegos y dicen que han hablado con personas implicadas muy de cerca en el proceso de fabricación de la consola...
Según dicen, el coste del mando no superaría los 50$.
Aquí los párrafos mas importantes, los dejo en ingles, por que es bastante fácil de entender:
“Cutting production costs to maximize profits is Nintendo’s main concern with the Wii U. They are cutting costs in the Wii U’s hardware to build back confidence in investors. Nintendo wants investors to view Wii U as a less risky proposition. ”
“NFC capabilities are a drop in the bucket for Nintendo. As NFC becomes more mainstream in mobile devices, the price for NFC implementation will rapidly decline. Nintendo is jumping on NFC because of a projected cost decline in the technology.”
“The cameras in the Wii U controller are an estimated manufacturing cost of $6. They are slightly better quality than the 3DS and DSi cameras. The touch screen has a manufacturing cost estimated at $14.”
“Nintendo chose an economical GPU and CPU that could keep up with the performance of today’s current consoles, but keep hardware costs down to maximize profits. Nintendo got a bargain price on the custom GPU and CPU that the Wii U uses. There is a bigger focus on downloadable content, applications, video content, digital distribution, and services to create a stream of revenue. Investors will be ecstatic with the news.”
To be fair to Nintendo, there are many costs that can accumulate such as including software with hardware, R&D, shipping costs, marketing/promotion, transportation, packaging costs, and carrying/holding costs.
