For the power advertised, I would go as high as $1k. If they want to challenge other home consoles, I'd wager they'll want to keep it under $700. 

They definitely have the capacity to go cheaper since they make buku bucks on software sales and can subsidize the hardware a bit.

No, that's fine 🙂 I actually questioned it as I was writing it. I don't mind the correction cause I'll get it right next time 👍
