hard to believe they will be able to create a console with at least the power of the Wii U plus an additional gimmick for $149. I'll be impressed.


The Shield Console is more powerful than the Wii U (500 GFLOPS with 3GB of RAM) and retails for $199.99, sold at a fat, fat profit margin becaue Nvidia doesn't make money off games. 

Depends on how expensive the gimmick is, but I suspect Nintendo learned their lesson on expensive gimmicks this gen. 

500 gigaflops isn't more powerfull than wii u, you cheap troll. and I bet this  shield doesn't have edram and some other stuff wii u has. wii u could probably be sold by $199 right now without bundled software, no wonder this shield that has lower specs can also retail for that price.

Also, nintendo didn't have any gimmick this gen (or ever for that matter) but let me guess, you are going to call the 3ds' 3d and wii u's gamepad gimmicks. bad news for you, cause your nonsense aside, those things weren't expensive. neither incresed the console's cost by much.
