I mean come on! $300 base price, you still have to shell out $70 for a decent controller, online is paid and lacks basic features. Nintendo's last cash grab before exiting the hardware business.

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. 

For the record, I bought the Wii at launch and the Wii U about a year after launch.

I'm just a Nintendo fan who wanted decent hardware without gimmicks that drive up the cost. The Switch is not that product. If the reports are true, and I think they are, its far inferior to the PS4 and Xbox One, yet it's going cost more.
