In stores I still see the Wii U for $299 (with a game, I don't see console only available).

If Switch launches at $299 with a game would that be the first time a company's old console and new console had price parity when the new one launched?

Read my thread..

Answer is no... ( Unless Nintendo changes its mind or has an ace up on its sleeve )

That's why the dramatical production reduction in 2016 and the premature discontinuation... Nintendo doesn't want any wii u on the shelves after switch launch, exactly to avoid what you asked... The would like to continue wii u after releasing  switch, if they were able/eager to slash wii u price!
