Your attitude makes it sound like you'll never buy anything Nintendo, cheap or not.

 

Anyway, I don't care about the €50. I agree it's not cheap, but it's also not outlandish. at least nothing compared to the €599 PS3 launch price, which gave you a whopping 1 controller and... No games. 

That doesn't quite help the case for the Switch. We don't usually expect Nintendo to do such stupid price choices for their products.

We don't? What about 3DS launch or the absence of Wii U price drop?

 

And no it doesn't help the switch case perse but I just think some people overreact a bit. If gaming is your hobby it will cost you money. And if people were not afraid to shell out the 599(corrected for inflation that is about €680 today) plus extra, why should half of that bother people that much? 

 

If I can take games with such fidelity on the road I'll pay €50 extra for it. Now if this was a Wii type powered console which was stuck at home yeah, I'd pissed, but like this? Again, not cheap, but doable.
