It is quite a shift from how Nintendo's been doing things since the Wii. They were always the weaker hardware at a lower price guys, so this is quite a change in their philosophy. I saw you said as much in another comment. They'll be competing more directly with Sony and Microsoft than they have since the Gamecube. I'll be interested to see how selling at top dollar does for them in the particularly unstable global market we have now.

Yep. This is a shockingly... Playstationy proposition. First party games aside I would have not been surprised to see a Vita revival be this exact console. I mean, they're basically shipping Bloodborne 2 and EyeToy.

Nintendo's pricing themselves with the big boys again, let's see how they do!
