Thanks a lot. Yeah...pricing is one of the most important things when it comes to the debut of a console. It definitely has to feel like you're worth getting what you're paying for. If NX Home is really a cutting edge piece of tecnology that's far beyond the power of PS4 and Xbox One and comes out for $350-$375 and acts truly as a 9th gen machine, I'd be very happy. Likewise, I'd be cool if NX Portable was a $200 or $175 platform, if the power level was comparable to Wii U. The pairing of the two for $500 would be a nice deal, though not exactly cheap. It would make it the same price as Xbox One with Kinect back in 2013, but still less than the $600 PS3 model back in 2006. Heck...if Big N packed in a main entry Mario game that ran on both systems, and the whole package of all that was $500...that'd be really great in my opinion.

Well, the issue isn't just "feel like worth getting what you're paying for", but also fighting the disintrest. Wii had substance and see how it sold, then compare it to Wii U that lacks the substance. You shouldn't compare the potential price of NX to what XB1 or PS3 cost back in the day if you aren't going to sell the same audience. I don't think NX and mobile are two different strategies, but actually two different takes of the same strategy.

Hopefully Nintendo makes the NX as attractive as possible. It's not necessarily the easiest thing to achieve a solid price, worthy launch lineup, 3rd party support, and proper hook...but if Nintendo's next system is as powerful as some are suggesting and does offer a two unit experience, all the while having a Zelda or Mario at its debut...then hopefully the final price and third party entries are attractive as well. Lots of if's right there, however, so we'll see!
