Nintendo is nickel and diming us with the Switch!

I'm confused by the approach.

It's like a return to the Wii with hardware much weaker then the competition and a return to motion controls. Yet the console will release and cost a lot more then it's rivals.

The Wii was weak, had motion controls and a nice cheap price.

I definitely think Nintendo are trying to maximise profits from their most loyal fans before they drop the price to get the mainstream.

I'm hoping that's what's going on because I want a Switch but not at $300.

If they do a $100 price cut in a few months like they did with the 3DS, it will be a really crappy move for their most loyal early buyers fans. Even if those fans will most likely defend this move themselves, happy to pay 100$ more to show their support... 

 

Yeah, it's possibly what will happen.
