You can only compare devices that are contemporaries with each other to determine value. 

There really isn't a contemporary device in which to compare. 

True, which just means that in that sense it's valuable and not overpriced.

Production costs is the other thing we can look at. "Thanks to a new report from Japanese firm Fomalhaut, we now know that the manufacturing cost for the Nintendo Switch is roughly $257"

So the Switch at launch cost $257 to make and was sold at $299, clearly not overpriced.
