Base price at $300? Get real. That would make Wii U and Vita look like blockbusters. The price Nintendo has to go for is the current price of the N3DS. They can't charge more, the pressure from mobile is too big and the lesson from Wii U tells us that people won't pay much for products from Nintendo. $219 would be the perfect launch price and they should go for at least a 720p screen. Why? So that in a couple years manufacturers won't be charging them extra for the production of such outdated tech like a 480p screen - another lesson from Wii U.
Both the Wii U struggles with lowering of the production price and 8GB GDDR5 in PS4 vs 8GB DDR3 + EDRAM in Xbone show us that nowadays the more powerful solution can often end up being cheaper. Nintendo has to take that into consideration and shouldn't go with ancient tech as they used to, cause they might get burned yet again.
Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!
