Nintendo getting arrogant with 3ds the way Sony did with ps3?

$250 American dollars sounds reasonable considering the

step up in graphics

3D visuals

Stellar launch line-up

Popularity of the last DS console

They will probable have a $50 price drop early on in the consoles life so no need to worry

Where does it say $250? It said $300 in that gamestop article.

I think that's way too much for a handheld. $300 is what a home console should start at.

it said 250,000 YEN (300USD) in the article, to be precise. however, traditionally, nintendo likes to set the yen and USD exchange rates differently than global does, so 250 USD is very much in the ballpark (though 300 isn't out either). and it's very nice of you to give your opinion on how much things are worth, but you don't set prices. the market does, and nintendo is just guesstimating what they think market will pay.
