Overall, he likes the console and says that it would be a good complimentary console for those who already own an Xbox One or PS4, but only if the price is right. <\/p>\n
He says that Nintendo needs to make the Switch competitive with the PS4 and Xbox One in terms of price, and estimates that the Switch would cost $250, and at that price, it should be a successful console for Nintendo.<\/p>\n
“It can be slightly under-powered at $249 and people will buy it because it’s a Nintendo console, but it probably can’t justify a price above $299.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Pacther adds that “below 200 it will fly off the shelves”, but he doesn’t expect Nintendo to launch it at that price. He thinks that $249 is the right price, but above $299, “it’s in trouble”. <\/p>\n
While Pather has been disagreeable in the past, he makes a lot of sense here. Priced at $250 when it launches in March, it would be a great “impulse buy” for many customers, especially gamers who already have an Xbox One and PS4 and want to play Nintendo content. <\/p>\n
There is no way the Switch will be a big success if it costs more than $300, because by the time it launches, it’s likely that the Xbox One and PS4 might be at $250. <\/p>\n
