Iwata stated more than once he doesn't like price cuts as they give the message to the customers that the product is overpriced and they should wait before buy it. Understanding his philosophy it is easy to figure out why Nintendo decided for this price point. To set for a higher price with a discount in six months would make many early adopters to feel betrayed. Anyway, typical Pachter analysis, I still wonder if someone really pays for his insights, unless what he writes is much superior to his free commentaries.
