PS4 will be $299.99 with thousands of games, millions of players (and people want to play where their friends already are), and have superior multiplats to what this NX is going to get. XBOne might be even lower than that by next March ($250 perhaps).

Ok so let me get this straight, people wont buy a $299 XBO/PS4 level console from Nintendo because those devices will have thousands of games and millions of players who want to play with friends?

If PS4/XBO having thousands of games and millions of players are going to stop people from buying a $299 NX than why would they buy a $399 NX that is moderately more powerful?

Hence why 2017 is a terrible time to launch an console. Especially since Sony is going to have a more powerful console that's $399 AND has millions of players and thousands of games by then.

The faliure of the Wii U has totally fucked Nintendo. They need to launch something to replace it soon, but it's an awful time to launch new hardware. The other two are just hitting their stride...
