To add to the "value diminishment" point, I wonder if the Nintendo Selects brand was brand diminishment in it of itself, and if the current executives in charge would admit that was a mistake, or if they would slip up and say, "Well, our company wasn't doing well, and our customers demanded better value from us at the time. However, due to recent sales being rather high, I think we are doing the right thing, and do not need to lower the price anymore, since we are clearly delivering on value."
I'd at least give the executives points for being honest, even if I hate that answer. If only Nintendo fanboys and fangirls weren't such pushovers.
