I'd hate to see how much a PS3 / XBOX 360 devkit costs...

Post by: Superyoshi on February 23, 2006, 09:15:35 am: To anyone confused, yes, that is remarkably cheap for a dev kit. From what I've read, the developers love it too.

Nintendo itself has not yet commented on a Revolution price point, except to confirm that it would sell for less than $299. However, if the price of Revolution development hardware is any indication, the system could be very cheap indeed. Studios tell IGN that Revolution SDKs sell for about $2,000, which is thousands of dollars cheaper than a PSP SDK, let alone an Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 one.

One word: DAMN.

You KNOW something's wrong when a PORTABLE devkit costs thousands more than a CONSOLE devkit. :o

Jason, you obviously have no idea what a devkit is, so zip it.

Hopefully Nintendo will win back the third party because of this.

Post by: neothe0ne on February 23, 2006, 04:12:22 pm: Yeah, I meant to link to that IGN article where I got this news from. It's remarkably cheap, especially when it's going to be a fraction of the price of a PSP devkit, which is a fraction of the price of a 360 or PS3 devkit...
