DS Lite for $100? At WalMart?

[Rock Raiyu]

I don't know if this is an official price, a price drop, or something that is only going on at Walmart. No matter what, some of you might want to take advantage of this while you can! Thanks to 8bitjay for the heads up!

I need to go to WalMart right now! But I don't have a car.

wow they really did lower the price bad business move on Nintendo's part good news for pirates =P lol

Meh, you can get a used DSL for like $80. This isn't shocking me.

DS Phat is still better though. The DSL breaks like after 2 years, while the DS Phat can go for a long time.

They're probably also trying to push the DSi and trying to rid their stock of DSL before replacing them with DSi's. Wal-Mart, although slightly overpriced with games (I mean, who wants to pay like $40 for a new PS2 game?), does have good console prices.

I've had a ds lite for more then 2 years and never broke maybe they break if you don't take care of them...

The beginning of the end for DSlites? You know, clear the stock of DSlites and only carry the DSi. It is my firm belief that Ninty is lying through their teeth when they say the have no intention of killing off the DSlite. They can't update the firmware of a DSlite to screw you out of being able to pirate games, so they want it gone. They won't admit to killing it off until they are mostly off store shelves, then they will be like, "Oh! Didn't you know?"

That would have been nice if that were two years ago...

 

[shakirmoledina]

its too late now with the dsi having so many probs for piraters so infact get it now before u reach the age of anti-piracy... though its better if u can actually buy the game unlike some of us

I have a DSi already and could careless about wifi or going online with it or w/e so i'm set on 1.3

Of course they will kill the DSL, no way to stop piracy there...!!
