Considering that the Wii U version of BOTW doesn't run as smooth, and you can't take it anywhere, I think 300 for the Switch is fair. People don't understand that this is new tech in many ways, allowing anywhere near Xbox One graphics portably is a feat in itself. There's physics and logic that go into why the Switch costs what it does. 300 isn't just some number they came up with on the spot.

People will be negative about the Switch at launch, the same happened to 3DS. But once the games start coming, I'm a lot of the complaints will be quelled. I do have my concerns about the ergonomics of the controller (then again 3DS wasn't the best for my hands either and I still played the hell out of it), and yes the kickstand isn't placed in the most optimal position, battery life could be better, and storage isn't the best. Then again, find me a portable device with even a 500GB hard drive in it, that's as small as the Switch...it's just not going to happen. Just get an SD card and swallow the pill, or just buy physical, it's not like there aren't options.

There are definitely ups and downs, but I'm more concerned with the games that come to it.
