Nowadays, I don't think a majority of people are willing to fork in $250 for such a device, especially if it can't do some of the daily things phones and tablets do, especially in the West. While the Vita has shown how powerful handheld gaming can be, it also showed that it's not what a lot of people wanted (nor was the price). Though as we know, handheld gaming is something only Nintendo appears to understand as they can integrate their software with the handheld hardware effectively and create experiences that you can't find on any console (home or handheld) like Pokemon. So I guess, ultimately, the price is something we all have to consider. |
Well, Pokemon is their only experience you can't get on console, and only because they're stubborn. Most all their other franchises, certainly their biggest ones, have existed on both handheld and console and play pretty much the same.
But I agree on pricing, whatever they do it needs to stay at $200 max.
