THey should just announce the price if its so reasonable. Steal Nintys 3DS thunder. If the price is somewhere 3DS people may hold out on buying so they can have NGP.

Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

$299 is affordable? Um, ok.

Still a whole lot cheaper than an iPhone (they cost twice as much as that unlocked) and people seem to think that that is most affordable. Same goes for an iPad. Yes, I know, neither the iPhone nor the iPad are handheld consoles per say but they compete in the same gaming market so 300$ is certainly not overpriced imo.

The funniest statement in that article has to be "We always had the price and consumer in mind." Although, that is technically true when they told everyone to get a second job to buy one.
