I'm just saying it would be nice to have hardware based on the needs of adults, rather than every Nintendo hardware having to be anchored by the "well we have to make sure this will work well for little 10 year old Johnny". 

And even after price cuts it's not like what Nintendo charges today is cheap either. The Wii U + New 3DS XL run $500, so I could've saved myself a trivial amount of money for waiting 2-3 years. I don't have a problem paying the money I just want to make sure I get something worth the dollar price they're asking for.

You're doing it again. I am an adult and the 3DS and Wii U meet my "needs." I don't even see what "needs" have to do with it, you obviously don't "need" more power because you bought both of those systems at launch. I don't see how being an adult relates to requiring more power, either. Seems to me most people grow out of the desire for bigger numbers as they get older.

You're still missing the point because Wii U and New 3DS are still too expensive -- worse, there is a cheaper model of New 3DS available in every major territory except North America. Again, I cut the cost of the hardware down by one-third, far from a trivial amount when discussing a sum north of $500.
