Yeah, pretty much this. Nintendo makes products affordable enough people can get them year 1. No need to make cross gen or small project titles for their last gen console.

I didn't even want to buy a launch 3DS or Wii U. Both of those systems were too expensive and lacking critical features at launch. I bought a 3DS in 2012 for $160 and still haven't bought a Wii U. $250 is too much for a handheld in my opinion, I'd rather pay $200 or under. Likewise, $300 is pushing it for a console, that's probably the most I'd pay but I'd prefer $250 or under. As it stands, the Wii U has a couple of games bundled for that $300, so it's not bad.
