With the hypothetical specs shown in the rumors and leaks, how much do you guys think this upcoming Switch Pro or successor should be while maintaining a decent profit margin at the start? Or do you think Nintendo will take this chance to take a temporary loss at launch for eventual profit later on? They made sure to not sell the Switch at a loss come launch as a reference point.

Nintendo will never take a loss. They dint even take a loss with the wiiu while it was destroying Nintendo. 

I don't doubt that if the cost to make is high Nintendo will just price it higher and always make a small profit. They probably won't make anything that will make then go higher than $300.

Fair. But they initially lost money when the Wii U was floundering and when the 3DS was struggling off the bat. So they technically took a loss, but only temporarily due to both consoles struggling. Once the 3DS took off and the Wii U started having more first party games, they were able to recover some profit. But it wasn’t even close to the profits they gained from the Wii/DS days.
