Analyst: Project Natal to cost $50

With the seemingly advanced technology featured in Project Natal, many have assumed it to be a high priced device. However, industry analyst Michael Pachter has recently let us know that he thinks Natal will cost just $50 when it ships later this year.

News comes his Pach-Attack show over at GameTrailers where he states the fact that Microsoft isn’t trying to make any money off of Natal but will instead try to get everyone to use it. Because, once everyone has it Microsoft will be able to shower us with all sorts of software that they will then make money on.

Unfortunately, Michael Pachter has no affiliation with Microsoft so we’ll have to wait until official word is given before we pass final judgement.

Check out the episode of Pach-Attack that we mentioned above after the break.
