PS and Xbox are the go to Console For Multiplats and exclusives. Even if The switch has 3rd party support X1 and ps4 at $300 will destroy it. So I absolutely agree For mass market Success The Switch has to be $200.
$200 may simply not be feasible without performance sacrifices that many would no doubt criticize.
The very fact that PS/Xbox are considered the go-to platform for western AAA titles is exactly why the Switch can't just chase those titles, IMO. It would be preferable to have them, but the 3DS didn't break 60 million units by having all the latest western AAA titles. It had a strong lineup of its own exclusive titles.
As much as everyone seems to want to focus on those multiplats, nobody is going to trade their PS4 in for a Switch to play games they can already get. Nintendo needs to focus on building a strong library of first and third party exclusives in order to entice those customers into also purchasing a Switch, the western AAA titles really only matter to people who will only own a Switch (which is important too, but if the general point of contention is selling to a larger audience than the Wii U it has to be about more than just Nintendo fanboys like me).
