| RolStoppable said: That has been the most probable price since quite some time, so there isn't really a reason to doubt it. In relative terms, $250 isn't as bad as it was for the 3DS, because back then a new DS was about half the price of a 3DS. This time there is also the Wii U which costs more, although it comes with games. A next gen system for the price of $250 when the current gen isn't much cheaper or even more expensive isn't shabby. |
Some other things to take into account
Switch in 2017 is far more powerful than 3DS in 2011
Hybrid concept of Switch is better than glasses-free 3D
Launch/post-launch lineup is much greater than 3DS had
These things help make the $250 price tag of Switch a greater value than the $250 price tag of 3DS at launch.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
