3DS price drop [Now 170!]

[Aleena]

Nintendo slashes 3DS price, gives away free games to prevent backlash - Video Games Blog Plugged In - Yahoo! Games

Told people that the 3DS was a failure hardly selling any units,And they didnt listen. Now there is a huge price cut to compensate.

Ugh, the 3DS is really crap anyways.

I've notice din our advertisements, they've made a change to what they usually do, making the ads "cooler"

I dunnoo... But I knew it wasn't going trk out.

[~Shieru No Tamashi~]

The 3DS needs nothing but a Pokemon version (and a well made one) to get the attention (and the sales rates) Nintendo wants.

Not to mention there is already a 3DS emulator and 3DS romdumps.

NDS ROMs - Nintendo 3DS Rom List - 3DS Roms, DS Roms, Nintendo Roms, PSP ISOs <-*Points* 3DS roms.

AND R4 cards are still out and about, even though they're now illegal here (and probably everywhere else) XD

they may be illegal but it is NOT enforced at ALL
The only enforcement against sales / purchases of R4 carts, is they are not allowed to be sold in the USA under legal business practices
however ANYONE can purchase one online, And have No legal consequences for doing so. A cop isnt about to stop you at TGS / Blizzcon and go "Please show your games for your DS / PSP before entering this area"

On the topic of R4 cards and the 3DS, they can't actually emulate 3DS games yet.
Only DS games on the 3DS.
Still that's some bullshit.
/insert buyer's remorse.

I bought mine at ~1:20 am when they came out and I finally got to the front of the line xD. Could have saved $80 if I waited a few months :/

[Louphoria]

That's the Games Industry for you!

Soon they'll probably released 3DS Lite XD

[CL0V3R]

@Stapled: My boyfriend dragged me to wallmart at 11pm and waited two hours to get one. Even though there was like no one there.
@Lou: If they make a lite they're crazy. That screen is already too small and about the size of the light. D;

[Stapled]

Well from what I've read people who paid the full price and going to get some free games including Yoshi’s Island(gba), and The Legend of Zelda(nes).

[DAEMON]

You have to be shitting me richt now! 170?! wtf.

[-0- D i o r -0-]
