Forums - Nintendo Discussion - What price does 3DS needs to be successful?

EB Games in Australia posted 3DS with preorder price of $348 (Aus).

That translates to rougly $301 USD -- based on direct exchange rate. (1 Aus Dollar = 0.88 US Dollar)

However, there is a slight mark-up to hardware in Australia. So the actual exchange rate is closer to US price = 65% of Aus price.

That would make the console -- $225 USD.

 

And a price in that range (219.99 to 229.99) would do quite well, given what it does.

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.
