Kirby Star Allies is apparently doing quite well, so I'm eager to see if it'll have a noticeable effect. Otherwise nothing much to say this week, well I guess 3DS didn't have such a bad drop so 50k might be the baseline, which wouldn't be bad for a 7 year old system.

I think Nintendo is makeing enough on each sale, that if it was willing to sell it at break even point, they could lower the price abit today. |
I don't see a Switch XL happening, they can't change the size of the Joy Cons, and really the screen is already plenty big enough for a portable. If one wants an even bigger screen there's always docked mode. They'll definitely want to cut the price though to increases the system's appeal in general but more specifically to the handheld market. I expect to see a $50 cut next year, and then one more down the road to reach that $199 sweet spot. Value saving bundles will also be implemented at some point, probably starting this holiday.
