With regards to the 3DS price cut Iwata said what they learned from the Gamecube was they should've dropped the price earlier while the system was still new. So I think we'll see a price cut later this year - but not by more than $50. Alternatively they could boost the value of the basic pack by bundling Nintendoland with it, too. The premium would still be worth the higher price (more storage, gamepad charging cradle, sensor bar, 10% eshop discount, black console). Currently the basic pack is severely overpriced compared to the premium - it doesn't sell.
As for $200 that won't happen before holidays 2014 and it'll depend on the Wii U's sales pace next year.
