They freaking ruined it with the pricing. Come on. The thing costs as much as a PS4 + UC4. It's starting to look like Wii U 2. As expensive as PS4/X1, weaker and with way less 3rd party support.
Is this supposed to be also a 3DS successor? They are alienating 60M+ consumers by launching a successor by 300 bucks. The 3DS only started selling well for 175. This also alienates the potential casual consumers that play Mario Run or PoGo. It's basically priced like a hardcore device but lacking most stuff hardcore gamers want.
PS4 will probably get a cut to 250 this year. X1 also. I could see both selling by 200 in the Holidays if both companies wanted to compete aggressively. PS4 also packs a huge lineup this year. I can see the Switch getting an early aggressive price cut like the 3DS did.
