They did from the beginning, the only reason why it has sold anywhere close to as much as it did is because of the shortages of the base model forcing players to buy a Lite instead, especially during the height of the AC:NH hype. |
Yeah that's my theory as well, the shortages forced people to get the lite out of necessity which may have given Nintendo false confidence in the Lite but history has shown us that the consumer rejects handhelds that cost $200 or more. Nintendo got the message with the 3DS and now they should with the Lite, i think a $150 price point would be far more appealing and win over those reluctant to spend $200..
