Realistically how much would that really affect sales? I mean if $79 for 2DS with a game bundled doesnt get you to buy one than is $59 really that tempting? It might see a slight temporary upkick in sales but essentially all that would do is reduce its profit margin. I get the feeling that the N2DS XL is meant to outright replace the N3DS XL (already confirmed is select regions) so thats essentially a price cut to the premium model.
At $79/$149 the system is already quite cheap and we probably wont see any true price cuts until its about to be discontinued and retailers want to get rid of stock. |
1.Historically we've seen Nintendo products catapult in sales when they receive a discount
2.$59 is impulse buy territory, especially considering $59 is the average price for just one Switch game.
3.The 2DSXL model is overpriced IMO and that's why it isn't moving units, cabinets at Target, Wal Mart, etc are full of these things collecting dust. 6 year old handheld hardware should not be $149, it's only $20 cheaer than the 3DS was in 2011.
