Re: Revolution to cost under $300

It's a little more involved than that. When you consider what they want
to do in terms of backwards compatability they needed a broadband
adaptor that was actually supported. That never really happened on the
Gamecube. Yes they released one and a modem, for all of about 3 games
that supported it.

The only way to make the backwards compatability a selling point was to
release a system with broadband built in. Nintendo, as usual, is a
generation late in figuring this out.
