Agreed. :)
I want it to do well, and for it to be an affordable device that can get out there more. It's a shame the WiiU sold so poorly. There were a lot of great exclusives on there, but it really needed to hit $199 or so to really stand a chance.
Luckily for Nintendo, without the sizable BoM cost that they dealt with on the U, I bet they can pretty much dial in whatever price they want to on the Switch as they go (and like I said, hopefully eventually new models to account for different users, a la 3DS/XL. I want a cheaper console variant, I don't need a screen/battery/dock/etc. Just a box with the basic hardware that has HDMI out and a pro controller and I'm golden.
