Smart comparing the 6 year old handheld from Nintendo costing 500 Euro on release to the 1 year old smartphone for 1.500 Euro

Was it really 500 at launch? Seems a bit too expensive for Nintendo.

released with an MSRP of ¥29,980 in Japan, US$299.99 in the United States, £279.99 in the United Kingdom, and A$469.95 in Australia; with standardized pricing for the European market varying.
