I don't see $500-$600 consoles outselling a $350 console (game included) that will probably have a much better library at the time. They might outsell Wii U later down the line, but at least at launch, I doubt MS and Sony's consoles are going to hit the ground running, considering how expensive they'll probably be, and the fact that many will probably still be more that satisfied with the PS3s and 360s. Remember how stagnant 360 and PS3 sales were in its first couple years? Yeah, picture that, but pile on a shittier economy and probably higher console prices.

But what if PS4 was $350 as well? Who would buy a Wii U then?

Well people who prefer Nintendo games for one. But that will never happen so it's a moot point.

But if it were to happen I see Nintendo in deep shit...

Even if WiiU and PS4 will both be 350$ and sell the same I don't see Nintendo in a deep shit.
Imagine 3 mln of consoles sold both in holiday season. By the end of 2013 WiiU surely will be sold for profit at 350$. And PS4 at a 350$ wii be at least 100-150$ loss for each console sold... So if 3 mln consoles sold Nintendo will get some profit even only on consoles. But Sony will get at least 300-450 mln $ LOSSES ONLY from sales of consoles. Do you think its bearable for them in the current situation?
