I highly doubt it will be expensive, Nintendo will want to make most affordable console and certainly can't be more expensive than PS4/XboxOne, at end of 2016. XboxOne will have max $299 price.

$299 premium or basic?  IIRC the 299 wii U was not that popular and $349 was deemed to expensive.  NX launching at 249/299 makes more sense, I think its key to stay under $300 regardless of the bundle offer.

Yup, $299 price point needs to be max.


I'm not sure if its possible. 

The Wii U + 3DS cost $520 (I'll even give the 3DS the $169.99 price drop pricing) at launch, this is supposed to match up with the PS4/XB1 yet be $299.99?

PS4/XB1's price isn't as releveant directly because those are home consoles only, not both a home console and portable. 

The more relevant price would be a PS4 ($349.99) + Vita ($199.99) cost.
