We still talking about $300 hardware not $150 hardware like 3DS in same time period, I dont think we can say in any case that 38k is terrible in any case. Just for record, Wii that had price point of $250 in same time period sold 3k more than Switch did sold this week, I guess that's also terrible. Even if it dont sell this quarter like it did sell last quarter, in Q4 quarter Switch will destroy last years sales numbers.

I know what he means.

Smartphone sales kinda make it seem like a 300 price point for a portable piece of hardware isn't exactly a big issue with the consumer. 

Smartphones are not consoles. Dont forget, $250 price point for 3DS was huge problem for 3DS sales, that why 3DS had huge price point to $170 only 6 months after launch.
