A 200 dollar jump on the price is very unrealistic. Nintendo would be shooting itself on the foot if this costs more than 400 dollars. I was actually hoping for a 349.99 price point, but I guess that might be unrealistic as well. |
Yes agreed. Any price point that starts with a 4 would be a huge mistake by Nintendo. I can't imagine anything over $399.99. And $499 would just be insane. I see no reason that they need to jump anything more than $100 from Switch launch model.
Maybe a souped model in a few years comes in at $4XX, but definitely not a launch model. $400 is already very much pushing the affordable price point that their customers expect.
I also would have originally expected $350 except for the fact that they never dropped the price of the Switch, and obviously they aren't releasing a new system at the same price as the previous gen OLED. So it's pretty hard to imagine this will cost anything other than $399.
