The PS4 and XB1 are both 299 (in fact, the XB1 is actually on sale for 279 right now). You can't possibly tell me the HW inside the Switch is worth as much as either of the former two consoles.

Couldn't we then criticize XB1 for being the same price as PS4 (even though it's weaker)?

I get if the Switch was $400 or something, but the constant questioning of pricing seems a bit off. The Vita is significantly weaker and still goes for $200, so by handheld standards I don't think $300 is necessarily bad.

 

Again though, it's up to everyone. Each console has a good justification for their price. PS4 is a great gaming device, XB1 is like an all-in-one device for your living room, and the Switch will provide actual games on the go in HD (screw mobile). 

 

Personally, I own the XB1S and can't wait to get the PS4 and Switch. I'm still catching up on gen 7 though.
