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.


Eh, I don't buy it. I still think it'll be between $300-$400. Short of some weird voodoo magic, I don't see how they'll possibly get the system that cheap with what we know about it. We know it'll have a gamepad, and we know it will be powerful enough to handle DQXI. It'll definitely be cheaper than usual because it won't have a disk drive, but that's not getting the console down to $250. With the gamepad, it's got to be $300 minimum to make sense, and even that's a severe stretch.

With price point $300-$400 will be dead from start, nobody wants to buy Nintendo console with price point more than $300, in Q4 2016. Xbox One will have $250-300 price. Do you realise that PS4 now have price of $350 and Sony still have profit on it, next year PS4 could easily have price of $300, saying that there is no reason why Nintendo won't release console in Q4 2016. with Xbox One similar power with price point of around $249-299. $299 is max price that NX will have.


Shrugs. I think it would be very difficult if not impossible to get both systems together at that pricing. 

Hell right now the Wii U + 3DS XL are still $500. So in a year you're going to get a much more power console + more powerful handheld together in one box for $200 less?
