I'm surprised the Switch is that expensive. That's around twice the price I've paid for other Nintendo consoles/handhelds. Think my Gamecube (2005) and GBA (2003) were only about £60, while my DSLite (2006) and 2DS (2016) were both under £100.

Inflation and cheaper tech

The inflation thing doesn't always work though. For instance, in 2003, the Gamecube was $99.99. That is only 148.66 in today's money. It's also only two years after it launched.
