I think it will be sucessful in Japan no matter what. But I think this thing had the potential to be a beast, not sure about it now because of Nintendo's skill to missmanage winning concepts. The only way to know is wait for it. I know for a fact that in my group of friends, we were thing nking on buying 3, and after the price announcement in Europe the count is zero. Obviously we're not the mass market, but I read lots of posts in FB and Twitter saying something similar. Yay to 250€' Nope to 330

My 3.5 mil was more out of frustration. I'm sure it will sell more but am truly diasappointed. Due to the current drop of the Canadian currency, a $299 U.S price point puts the console at $452.00 CDN (after taxes) and I might add was the cost of the PS4 at launch, which is way to much for a Nintendo console. To put it in perspective, Wii U was $326 after tax and Wii was $290. Both consoles were bundled with games.

That sucks, man . No wonder you're frustrated. I have to put some extra effort to buy it too, since I've been expected a Zelda bundle around 300€, and I'll pay 100€ for that.
