Hi Liam, So true. I would bet not many blind gamers have a $500 Xbox laying around, and the initial up front costs alone would be harmful to any accessible games dev market that could be carved out for it. For that price one could go out and buy a cheap Compaq or HP computer from Wal-mart for playing games which defeats the cost of a Xbox which is only for games.
