Price was a huge concern for me with regards to how successful it would be prior to launch.  Now though?  Not so much.  The staggered big releases (albeit a month here and there in a launch window) has clearly been working, as has the marketing strategy.  It is great to see.  I personally can't wait to get my Switch when Mario Od drops.

Price doesn't matter as much when aiming for adult men. They have lots of disposable income. You just have to give them a product they want and market it well. Price would be an issue if Nintendo had made something that was primarily aimed at kids. 

Thus the marketing strategy paying off.  They have done well, better than I was giving them credit for prior to the data we have now.
