well price estimate in Australia is $349AUD. The general rule of thumb is we get charges slightly less than double.

So I say $199USD minimum.

Nintendo wouldn't make a handheld as expensive as the Wii when it came out! I mean, what are some of you saying when you think $300!?

It'll be $170-$200 definitely.

They could charge 600 dollars and still sell 5 million even if it has no games.
