1. Exactly how much do you expect the switch to sale? 110 million is looking like the endgoal right now, and for the lite to make up the majority of that, the normal switch will have to slow down a lot.

2. The normal switch isn't going to be $300 forever. I am not sure why some people seem to think it wont ever get a price cut. 

3. While the barrier of entry is lower at the moment, that still doesn't mean that the majority of people will undercut the benefits of the OG switch, especially in the long term. 

(1) I dont know where it will end up, but I predict it will outsell the PS4 by a whole LOT.

(2) When the regular Switch goes down in price the Lite will follow suit. Why do you think the Lite will be $199 forever?

(3) Average Joe is EXTREMELY price sensitive. This is why companies have always removed features to get the price down to increase sales, PS3 removing BC, Gamecube removing digital port, Wii removing BC, etc.

1. No 

2. There comes a time where the price will be so low that it won't matter. The Lite will always be cheaper than the OG, but they'll both be in the super cheap market.

3. Not sure what that last part has to do with anything.

If something is clearly better than a cheaper alternative, I think the better object will win in the end. This happened with the 3ds and 2ds, it will happen with the Switch. Also, you really think it will outsell ps4 by a lot? Like really? PS4 on track for 130 million and you think Switch will outsell by A LOT? I respect everyones opinion, but cmon man.
