Price I can agree with if the systems do not offer anything more than the ability to share software. If there is an updated version of the gamepad (720 display, ect) I can see the MSRP being around $300.
As for upgrades every three years, it may be possible, but still something I don't really see. It may be like their New 3DS system, where the updated hardware may get some exclusives, but the majority of games would still be for both gens.... I don't know, as I said, this is hard to see for me. I think this will have a lot to do with the success of the New 3DS. I would be all for an add on (think 32X for the Sega Genesis) that allows for games to detect the device and add more effects to the game if the device is detected, but a whole new console would be a pretty big gamble.

Well their is a history of people upgrading their consoles every few years.
Playstation-1995, PSOne-2000
PS2-2000, PS2 Slim-2004
PS3-2006, Slim-2009, Super Slim-2012
Xbox 360-2005, Xbox 360S-2010
The difference is that in this situation the new selling point wouldn't be the device being smaller/sleeker but that it has better performance.

Those different models didn't offer improved resolution, they just offered more memory. (And were around the same price, maybe $50 more.)
