The parts are perhaps $10.  Other "little things" might be $5
more.  A big chunk goes into licensing fees.  Nintendo and Sega get a
cut from every cartridge sold.

On the other hand, I believe that PC game sales are even greater than
"console game system" game sales.  Most of these are designed and
manufactured in the U.S.  Floppy disks and CD ROMs are considerably cheaper
to make than cartridges.
