Was Nintendo right to opt out of the graphics arms race?

Bold part: I have never said otherwise.

As for the rest, preaching to the choir.  One of tbe reasons i predicted $400 and not $600, is because price is super important for consoles.  The ps3 floundered out of the gates because of price.  

Switch isn't $400 though, most people have paid $500 for the Mario Kart bundle which is like 95%+ of their hardware sales really, $450 with no game even is still ... I would say that is tip toeing definitely into "expensive" territory for a lot of people. 

It's just not ridiculous like $600-$800 would have been, but it's not that far off from $600 either. 

Not arguing this pont.  $400 is closer to $450 than $600.  That is just basic math.
