Nintendo didnt use any R&D on the chip....
and they got them dirt cheap from nvidia (that had a huge stockpile laying around they couldnt sell).

It bugs me Nintendo decided to go for 299$ price point.
However if their still selling them faster than they can make them, its all good for them.

Guys dont be suckers though, if you wait like 6months time Im pretty sure you ll see them do a 50-100$ price cut.

Did they have a huge stockpile, not read that anywhere. Also do Nvidia do anything cheap, they are one of the most profiteering companies out there who often price themselves out of contracts and treat their business partner's badly. 

Maybe your right though, Nintendo get their first batch on the cheap and then Nvidia ramp up the price when they can deliver a 16nm chip.
