So they really don't intend on selling anymore standard new 3DS systems aside from the animal crossing bundle. I was waiting till around Black Friday in hopes that some stand alone non bundled units would become available but Nintendo insists every systems has to have a game packed in. Not only that I would of liked to have a black standard new 3DS.

Does anyone know if WalMart will be offering the Splatoon Black Friday price online as well?

might have to pick up AC:NL... would love the happy home designer bundle for n3ds but i don't really need it

 

[RikuKawai]

I might get splatoon for $25. But I really want to wait for a Smash U deal.

Your signature made me laugh perhaps a bit too hard...

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Splatoon looks like the best deal here.

I'm thinking of getting the Nathan Drake Collection PS4 bundle for $300 which comes with a $50 giftcard. Will probably use half of those funds for Splatoon and the other half for... I'm not sure yet! Maybe The Witcher 3.

$300 is pretty good for a PoS4 since you get a bunch of exclusives.

I hope you mean Witcher 3 for PC since it's probably gonna be really cheap during the Steam Holiday sale.

Oooooh! Id love to get a hold of that Wii U Bundle from my job... but knowing them, I'm gonna have to work all through it. SMH

 

[Ethan2]

What about uk eshop deals ?

 

[Ericzander]

I hope you mean Witcher 3 for PC since it's probably gonna be really cheap during the Steam Holiday sale.

If I tried to play Witcher 3 on my PC I think it would catch on fire immediately.

I've been wanting to build a gaming PC for a while now, but when Kingdom Hearts 3 was announced as console exclusive I decided I should get a Xbone or PS4. Then when Kingdom Hearts 2.8 was announced as a PS4 exclusive I decided to go that route.

Edit: It's just deciding if I should get it now or later. But if I get it now I'll be able to review more PS4 games which would be nice.

Worth pointing out that the original model xl's would come with an exploitable fw.

 

[munetakakun]

They were serious about dozens of games discounted for Black Friday. 25 games...

 

[loco365]

Am I the only person who sees a basically empty page on the Cyber Deals page that's linked in the OP?

Or is Nintendo just not doing any deals on their digital games? :U

You have to view them from the e-shop of the wii u or 3ds. The technology is not there yet...

 

[Bowl0l]

any chance that 10.1 FW 3DS will get Eshop access before Dec 2?
I don't want to upgrade yet.
