Topic: NX Price

How much moola do you think this device is going to be?

I think it's price cannot exceed $300, especially if it's going to be a first party box.

I reckon it'll be around $400/£350/€350.

Pointless thread is pointless. Until we know what the NX is, there's no point in guessing its price.

My sources says it will be somewhere between 1$ to 999$.

@Xilef: Careful..Obe1plays will make a YouTube video citing that as news!

Somewhere between free and a million dollars.

Seriously, how are we supposed to know since we don't even know what it is?

Over nine-THOOOOOUUUUUUSAAAAAND!!!!.....cents.

About 225 grams of moola should suffice...

Nic nie wiem!

Probably about half a donkey.

$-400, Nintendo will owe us money.

The console isn't out yet, so I can't tell you how much it's worth, but I can tell you what Nintendo needs to price it at to be successful.

1. If Nintendo wants to continue as the go to home console for kids, it needs to be 300 dollars or less. Their last 4 systems have done this, and when compared to the other options on the market, it makes their system a strong value proposition to parents.

2. If Nintendo wants to change their game up, then it can be more, but it can't surpass $450 dollars. There has never been a home console that has been successful while being above that price.

3. If it's a handheld, $200 max. Even that is pushing it a little. This device is competing with smartphones and tablets that can do MUCH more, so it's a tough sell for something that could be very situational.

There's no way it'll be over $300. I'm expecting a $250 sweet spot like the Wii if we're talking about consoles

$350 for a console that's more powerful than the PS4 is possible and what's Nintendo must do to get back 3rd party support.

"There's no way"? What information do you have to know this?

@Klimbatize: "There's no way" = "I really doubt"

It's just an expectation. Based on the Xbone and PS4 which had successful holidays selling their consoles for $300-$350, on top of the likely chance of the two getting a price cut this year.

I can't see the NX doing well releasing a new console more expensive than the PS4 or Xbox One especially if it's not as powerful as the PS4 like it's rumored to be, that would be suicide. It could get away with it if it was that console/handheld hybrid, but that's a debate for another time. But if we're talking about just consoles, I'd like to think/hope Nintendo is smart enough to release a console reasonably priced to the compete with the other two while sharing the similar power.

I'd personally pay any price. But if there are two parts (handheld and home console), I'd say each should be sold seperately with the handheld for 200€/$ and the home console for 300€/$. However, if you buy both as a bundle, you only pay 400€/$. If it's just a console, it'd be 300€/$.

my bid is 199.95, drew.

The original Atari 2600 debut in 1977 for $199. That's $778 in today's dollars after adjusting for inflation.

The Nintendo Wii debut in 2006 for $250. That's $294 in today's dollars after adjusting for inflation.

Just a little food for thought.
