You can't compare one-day xmas sale prices to the norm. Hell, 3DS was $99 on black friday but it sales for $140 regular. Normal prices for base PS4/XBO is $299 with a pack-in. NS with nothing will likely be $249. NS bundles with games will likely be around $279~$299. Considering NS also throws in - portability Then you will get the yearly / common 3rd party titles such as madden, fifa, cod, etc. Facts are NS is the most powerful portable console to ever hit the market that has any viability to succeed. Its more powerful than a Wii U. Yes, WiiU has more GFs, but not all flops are equal and in this case NS in portable mode is definitely more powerful than WiiU. NS has a better CPU, better/faster RAM and a more capable GPU. Then the NS becomes a home console and gives you a great experience on your big TV. At $250 this is #DayOne! |
Doesn't matter. Performance wise it is weak. I mean historically weak for a new machine at launch. If rumors are to be believed its using a massively underclocked version of outdated hardware. Even Wii U was a bigger jump from Wii. This is like a slap in the face of all Nintendo fans. The fact that it could end up costing as much as hardware that is many times more powerful than it is a even bigger slap in the face handheld or not.
