Hey, they were both advertised alongside the rest of the gen 5 consoles, they absolutely count.
But hey, if you're gonna be that guy AND ignore the post-PS3 consoles that all launched at higher prices, how about the Neo Geo? Because that launched at $650 in 1991 money.
The point is that no, the PS3 does not hold "have the dubious honor of most expensive console at launch" by any definition of that concept.
Fair enough.
