$299 for the specs on offer AND paid on-line multiplayer... OUCH.
Seriously, this hits them on both casuals AND "2nd console" types.
I mean, imagine every mom buying a console for kid, who doesn't care about performance herself,
now there is zero price difference up-front and ongoing to PS4/Xbone which have bigger brands
Nintendo is expecting the same dedication (paid online) as consoles offering full spectrum gaming.
They've lost it, they ignored the fact they are not Sony/MS, and yet think they can act the same way.
They can't use modern 14nm fab for at least tablet-competitive performance, yet still can't manage a cheap price for it all.
After this, they are going 3rd party, that's it...
