How much would Nintendo hardware cost to produce without gimmicks?

How much is the NVidia Shield? Around that price, probably less due to bigger production.

Exactly what I was gonna say. If you take out everything the Switch has going for it "gimmick"-wise, then it's literally just an Nvidia Shield, so the price should theoretically be close to that.

It would be more expensive, as the Switch in question would have a disc drive, as OP said. And on top of that, Nintendo would take it's margin on the Nvidia tech in Switch.
