If you cant afford the asking price for the system, then dont buy and wait for price drop, no need to get upset about it. If Ninty feels it should sell for 350-400 then thats what they will sell for, and thats not even that bad. THey did say it wouldnt be cheap

They shouldn't be making a system that costs that much even at launch. Even if it's not as much as the PS3, that at least was launched before the recession.

Doing this now is bordering on business suicide.

They want to make a more powerful product, they could do what they want, its a free market.  If people dont like it, then they dont have to buy it, its that simple.  Its not like most people here have any financial stock in Ninty anyway.  As a GAMER i am looking forward to what this thing can do.  I dont want a  Wii situation, where the damn thing was flooded with Just Dance and Wii Sports ripoffs, and 3rd parties couldnt put there good games on it because Ninty decided to cheap out on hardware. And I mean good games, not ones that had to be butchered to get it to work on the system. (looking at you Dead Rising and CODs)
