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.

Yeah it was back then it clearly isn't now. 3ds was an extremely weak piece of hardware compared to the switch which is a powerful device capable of good looking games. The market clearly shows 300 is no problem for this portable piece of hardware.
