Am I the only person that thinks this price point is way too high for a portable regardless of features and graphical muscle?
I'm willing to bet the biggest factor hurting the 3DS is its price, I imagine the same handheld at DS1 price ($150 at launch right?) would sell like gangbusters.
Even the PSP's sales were very limited when it first launched at $250.
It's just TOO DAMN MUCH for a portable. Hell just this week the Xbox 360 250gb system was $199 at Futureshop. Handhelds need to be $150 or less at launch. Period.
