I even had a Virtual Boy! Although I bought it for like $25 after it had already failed.

I guess we'll see just how much of Nintendo's market is made up of fans with lots of expendable income vs. parents buying stuff for their kids.

Yeah, I think that's another huge factor that made the Switch so successful! It was priced at a point that households had multiple units and multiple copies of games like Kart and Smash. Only people doing really well are going to be able to swing that at these prices.
