Quick question NT, would it matter to an 8 year old girl whether it's a 3DS XL or New 3DS XL or are the new features kind of useless to a kid like the Expansion Pack was for the N64?

Not really.

Yup, pre-order getting put in asap. Me and the young boy need that.

Nintendo looks like there finally going in the right direction. Haven't copped a Nintendo console since n64 and I'm hype af to play some new Nintendo games finally.

i'm in the same boat. N64 then switched to XBOX etc. The switch is looking darn good

Why does that sound cheap for a system with a huge handheld screen/system

It's going to be $350. The wiiu launched at $350 with cheaper parts iirc.

$300 would be the sweet spot for me. I want to see how they handle the virtual console. Rumor is you'll have to pay a fee to transfer your games again

$350 is way too high for the Switch.

 

[spottieottie305]

Like a lot of people have said $299 seems to be the sweet spot, BUT I would definitely pay $350-$400 if it it came with the Pro controller and a game. Not to mention possible 4G internet connection.

I could very well see a base Wi-Fi model coming out at like $250-$300 and the 4G joint with all the bells and whistles coming out at $300-$350.

I think this thing will have some time of 4G connectivity becasue the new Mario run game is going to be internet only and it only makes sense for Nintendo to make app purchases possible on this device. Why have an app like Mario Run that can only internet connection if your own device can't play it outside of a Wi-Fi environment? Just saying...

Wiiu was $300-350 and it had touch functionality that 2006 phones had.

Yeah, and how well did the Wii U sell?

This. Nintendo has to prove themselves again to console owners. I don't people are just gonna shell out $350-$400 for the Switch. Time will tell tho.

 

[dathbgboy]

$350 is solid considering the mobile factor of it.

 

[iYen]

Nintendo has to prove themselves again to console owners.

People were saying the same thing when the wiiu launched.

 

[Bert.]

I don't even know what the hell a Wii U is

 

[Based Jesus]

It sounds disappointing

and they failed to prove themselves, Wii U sold terribly.
