If i may intervein in the pricing discussion, i think that price policies should change if Fusion becomes a reality.
In my mind, seeing as it is the same game on both consoles - even if both versions aren't the same - i think it's reasonable to expect a price difference between the handheld and home console.
Now, that doesn't mean prices should stay as they are today or even go up.
Actually, it would be best if they actually went down. And there really is a margin for that seeing as the audience for each game will be bigger than ever.
It would be great for Nintendo on the handheld front to keep parents happy with low priced games and also on the home console front to better convince gamers.

So what type of pricing are u thinking?

The try and hold consumers or even recuperate some, they need to get the prices down at least to DS levels on handhelds (29.99€) and Wii levels on home consoles (49.99) as highest price for their games.
The rise in handheld gaming is specially dangerous as it is Nintendo's best segment and the one where they have more to lose.
I'm not seeing parents buying their kids a handheld with games going for 45 to 55$/€. It's too much.
I think that with Fusion that's doable. They will save enough money on game production and marketing to cover that loss if it even occurs.

Ya I believe $29.99-49.99 is the sweet spot depending on things like budget, size of the game, selling power of the series.
