Needs to hit the market at under £200 to stand any change at all imo. (So $199-250?)

 

It's a glorified handheld with TV out capability and a control set up actually considering the requirements of such a combo. But I don't think it can sustain a home console price.



RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.

399 is nice if it means a hard drive and a free game or that bad ass pro controler.

I feel like you have a split personality, you've spent the last few weeks being upset that the NX wouldn't be powerful in comparsion to the ps4, and it isn't. :P

But yeah $299 or below and it's probably a day one purchase for me.

Oh, I just do not take gaming as seriously as you guys. I bought my Xbox One while roamming through a mall.

Bought my WiiU because they did not had a good movie in theaters in my saturday trip out of my city.

Bought my PS4 because a girl of my last college did not want to go out with me.

Gaming is just a escape valve to me, something I do for fun. So my thoughts about it change all the time.

Right now I am planing to buy the Switch and the PSVR at june 2017.

Till then, all can change.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

$250 tops for the handheld, $300 for bundle with dock, $100 for dock standalone. That is my final answer.

I swear, if there's no dockless bundle....

Nintendo doesn't sell consoles on brazilian stores anymore...

You can find it in some big stores, imported, of course.

I can see it being like:

199$ tablet only.
+
99$ for docking station + controller.

or a bundle with both for 299$.

But I hope they do the both together bundle for 249$.

Let's hope you have a flight cancelled or something so you can buy two Nintendo Switch at launch.

Well, if we are patient enough we can probably buy imported for 2 thousand (reais) in early 2018,
