It's not Nintendo's fault that the prices are too high. When will people learn that it's an industry thing? We don't even know whether or not they're making profit from hardware. Selling at a minimal profit or a loss isn't "greedy".

Switch 2's price and specs are perfect for what it is and I'm glad Nintendo didn't cheap out. One way to improve short term sales is to ship a fewer Mario Kart World bundles. Not everyone interested in a Switch 2 will want Mario Kart, and it seems to me that there are more MKW bundles than standard SKU's out there.

The price and specs aren't perfect if consumers think the price is too high. That means the specs should have been worse to get the price down.

The price is fine outside maybe Europe. It just needs more compelling software and a fewer paid bundles. Matching Switch 1's long term success is a difficult goal regardless of specs and price.
