Which is why I'm going to be VERY wary of the NX. Nintendo have a good history of screwing over their customers with overpriced hardware, only to abandon it prematurely and chase a new concept. 

That isn't true, actually only Wii U and 3DS were overpriced, also they gaving full suport around 4-5 years and that very close to usual life cycle of generation of consoles.

The Wii was a moderately overclocked $99.99 GameCube (the GameCube had been $99 for *three* years by 2006 to boot), that they sold for $250, the additional cost largely being a plastic controller that probably cost $10/pop to mass produce and an laughably small 512MB internal storage (remember Nintendo's solution to this for many years was to simply delete games and use the "fridge" method). 

I would say that was overpriced. The XBox 360 was a full generation upgrade for $50 more available a full year earlier. 

Yes the system did have some good games (like Mario Galaxy), but that doesn't excuse the hardware. 

The GameCube at $199.99 just five years prior was *full* generation upgrade over the Nintendo 64 and even better than the Playstation 2. 

The Wii U at least was also a full generation upgrade on the Wii with many multiple times more storage.
