What's the cheapest public transport from Nürnberg to Prague?
What's the cheapest way to get from Nuremberg (Nürnberg) to Prague (and back) with public transport (buses, trains etc.)?
I've found that ICE costs about 100 Euro, so it's definitely not what I understand as cheap at this relatively short distance...
If the solution requires advance booking, please also mention how long before the connection should be booked. I'd prefer to exclude planes because of locomotion sickness.

Where did you find the price for the ICE? I think there is no ICE between Nuremberg and Prague. There is even no direct train. If you do want to go by train, you have to travel on regional trains and change once. Just check the schedules here.
The Deutsche Bahn has a bus service from Nuremberg to Prague. Prices start at 19 EUR for a single ticket. It takes 3h45 and it is a direct connection. How long you have to book in advance depends on when you want to travel travel and how flexible you are. Note that if you want to have the 19 EUR ticket, you have to book at least 3 days in advance.

Have you tried to rideshare with a website such as blablacar? usually people will let you car pool with them into Germany for about 20 euros each way.
Answer 3
€19 is the lowest fare that's generally available for buses. Fares vary depending on the how full each bus is, so booking either four weeks or more in advance or online very close to departure (some companies have a last minute special) is the best way to secure the cheapest price.
You can compare prices on Busbud (full disclosure: I work on this project).
There are 12+ buses a day, most are run by Student Agency in cooperation with DB IC Bus, or by Eurolines, MeinFernbus FlixBus or SemiTimeS.
The trip takes about 4 hours.
