didn't & couldn't are two different things.

3DS didn't sell well at $250 when it had shitty software output, a lame special feature & terrible marketing.

It's unknown whether or not 3DS could have sold well at $250 if it had solid marketing/features/software.

I feel pretty confident that people will think the hybrid concept is far more attractive than glassless 3D, so far the marketing has been great and the software lineup is far better than the lineup 3DS had pre-price cut so 3DS doing poorly at $250 does not mean Switch will do poorly at $300.

3DS sales surged by 260% when it cut its price, clearly a lot of people wanted it but did not want to part with $250 for a portable.

Wow man, you are really getting bad at your rebuttals.

PS2 & XB each had a 150-200% increase in May 2002 when the prices went from $300 to $200.

PS3 & Wii each had roughly a 100% increase in September 2009 when they went from $400 to $300 & $250 to $200.

Hardware going up when a price cut occurs is nothing new and nobody would every say PS2 or Wii were percieved as too expensive by the mass market prior to their price cuts yet they still saw really large boosts.

Like I said, its possible that with better features/marketing/software that 3DS could have sold well at $250 and 3DS doing poorly at $250 means absolutely nothing when it comes to how well Switch sells at $300.
