>>38343403Your starting discount is wrong, since you're discounting both the joycons in that starting figure and then again with the "making it detachable".
The starting discount is the minus $40 from the dock, then minus $5 from the removed railing and console-joycon communication. Although this might be more than that as you can also remove gyros from the controllers (right now the "screen" also has one), the SL/SR buttons and the IR port, since right now it's useless without detachable controller.
They might be able to cut up to $50 from all this (assuming better battery life since that's pretty much required for this model), but it will remain closer to the $300 mark than the $200 one.
Some games like ARMS and Labo would be unplayable on this thing right off the bat though.
Actually, there's a bit of a conflict with an overlapping demographic here: a cheaper model is more likely to ge gifted to children, and so is Labo. Factor in clueless parents unable to tell the technical differences and you have a PR disaster waiting to happen.
That could be solved by giving the console detachable joycons... but then you're pretty much saving no money.
