At the end of the day though
Inflation adjusted today:
The NES Deluxe Set (aka: the standard one most kids had with Mario + Duck Hunt) = $300
Super NES w/Super Mario World = $343
The Game Boy = $170
Is really not miles removed from Wii U being $300 today with Mario 3D World + Nintendo Land and 3DS ranging from $129-$199.
I mean if the point is things are more expensive today than they were in 1989 minus inflation ... well yeah ... and ... ? I can't buy a bottle of Coke or a Big Mac or a pair of Nikes or a comic book or spaghetti sauce for the same price as 1989 either.
If anything a $130 only "3DS model" (which would basically be the 2DS) would probably be selling worse.
