Why's the 3DSXL so expensive in America and Japan? You can get one here for like 200€.
(The prices from playasia seem quite expensive to me..)
200€ = $246 USD. 3DS only costs $200 USD in America, so it's cheaper here.

It just said "Order received"Cool, free shipping.
But estimated time of arrival is 7-10 days per update from the manufacturer? What the hell does that exactly mean?
So they upgraded you to faster shipping for free, but you still have the $5 shipping charge, right?
Just curious, what is your order status if you check on their website?
Play-Asia is known to be more expensive, especially Japanese games.Why's the 3DSXL so expensive in America and Japan? You can get one here for like 200€.

I agree. Red and blue are good colors... just not the shades they chose (I guess shades is the right word).Looking at the pictures of the white version makes me wish the US had gone with a different color scheme. The blue/black and red/black look so Fisher Price when compared to the all white. An all black system would have been a good look as well.
Not really. Pushmo is ¥700, Dillion's is ¥1,000. It's not too far apart. There are freaking lot of demos in the JP eShop, I think there are more than 10.@chris888222
Nope sadly I don't know any japanese, and probably the eShop games will cost a lot. Now I'm more angry with Nintendo, they are selling the 3DS for 270$ over here! And its a standard American 3DS XL with a box that says "MIDDLE EAST VERSION".
I guess I'll have to order my 3DS online, anyone knows any good site that sells 3DS XL and ships world wide? Would really be greatful if someone can provide me with such site!

Play-Asia is probably your best choice if you want an English version (US/EU) set, but it's definitely more than $270 with shipping.
I think that is either verifying payment or preparing to ship.Anyone who ordered from this hear anything?
I'm thinking about e-mailing them or cancelling if it is going to take a long time.

Thanks for all the feedback on your LL. It was really helpful since most of the reviews just say it is much better than the orignal with no specific details.I think that is either verifying payment or preparing to ship.Anyone who ordered from this hear anything?

Some other impressions:
1. DS games look a lot better on the new console compared to original in stretched mode. I think the lower pixel density and wider screen area plays a huge part. Of course, when compared to a DSi XL it isn't as good, but it isn't as blocky too.
2. Native resolution DS mode makes it slightly bigger than DSi size. However I prefer stretched mode as the screens are at their "natural" size. They don't look too bad either.
3. The set is all curvy and the control layout is fantastic. I haven't got any cramps/shit so far. The original made my hands hurt after 45 minutes of 3D Land.
