Hardware I saw the price of the Switch on a romanian online store, could it be real?

I changed the thread title to make it closer to what really happened.

retailers don't yet know the price of the console, that's all there is to it.

FYI the placeholder* price in Greece is currently 400€.

*I personally confirmed it with one of the employees of the corresponding retail chain. Price is not finalized yet here and most likely anywhere else until January 12th.

if nintendo were smart they would finalize the price before x-mas and not wait until january

I'm like 80% sure it'll be low $300s for the US, so even if this retailer was just guessing, it was a good guess. Same price bracket as original PS4s/XB1s. It'll be less powerful, but it also offers a number of features those consoles do not, so the price I think is justified.

It's going to be around $200 - $390 (or similar in value atleast once it releases world wide.), anything below that value would seem absurd

But you are right for the most part, only it may be a few dollars off (or any other currency.) off, or above for the official price point...
