Good job people-friendly Nintendo.

Yeah, I hope i can see the 3D effect, my eyes aren't the best.

I can hardly see the 3D effect in the cinema...

----

Yeah! They changed the price! (For the Netherlands)
So, if you buy it online you get it cheaper.
And if you buy it in a store, it will cost €30 more...

Yea! Totally!

 

[Gwaith]

Yeah, and screw those bicycle manafacturers for fooling people with leg injuries.

BTT: Guess the price is going to be as most guessed (3DS Price = Wii Release Price in that region)

 

[DeadLocked]

Fuck it, I'm sorry retailers but if you're gonna be little swines and charge more than a PS3 and XBOX slim you can shove your console where the sun doesn't shine.
I feel sorry for everyone buying. I wish no one would buy then they would be forced to lower the prices.
Translate US price to UK pounds then it's around £150. And it's even easier to ship to UK than US. No fucking excuse.
Should be literally £150 not a penny more.

Would you rather of the 3DS never be announced or released? If you don't want it or you don't think it's worth it then don't complain. It's an expensive thing to make currently and i'm sure that the price will go down in like 2 years. For me I think it's worth it and i'm getting it release date. But remember making things is not cheap. Remember what playstation did with the PS3, it was expensive as hell and they never even made a profit off the original system.

 

[digipokemaster]

yes i cant wait

 

[DiscostewSM]

So, I'm starting to see a lack of incentive to pre-ordering. $250 is manageable (though I wish it was a little less), but they made no mention of what games will be available from day 1 of the 3DS being sold (outside of Japan). All they gave us was a number that will be ready within the "launch window", which could possibly mean that there won't be any games available the moment the hardware can be sold.

PS3 original price was just as bad as this.
The fact is, 3DS can be manufactured, shipped to and sold in U.S.A for roughly £150, when in the UK it costs £70 more?
I was going to buy it, and I wouldn't complain if it was same for U.S.A and UK and other EU countries but are they taking the mick?
It's not even Nintendo's fault it's retailers for being greedy knowing early adopters will buy anything no matter what the cost.
Remember, they find it reasonable to sell in US for around a hundred dollars cheaper than here.

I agree.
So may as well wait and see what bundle offers are up from the stores and whatnot.
Or wait til the 1st party releases are out and see if they will get some bundle too.
Cos i don't see the point of rushing to buy one, and even more so should they decide to make another revision of the 3DS.
So yeh

 

[keasy]

PMSL Wossy sitting there...he's so into Japanesey!

Well, there is still incentive, but very little for me. Gamestop in-store has been doing pre-orders for $25/$50 for it, but checking the website shows pre-ordering for the entire cost. Think if I go into a store, I could still pre-order for $25/$50? My next check won't be until Friday, but I have some money on me atm, but not enough to cover the entire cost.

 

[Satangel]

I was at the mall while the live thingy was happening

Anywhere to watch it NOT live?

Nope, but really, there's no reason to watch it, all the real news-facts are on GBAtemp or on a general gaming site like IGN anyway.

Good job people-friendly Nintendo.

Yeah! Damn Nintendo for not letting you turn the 3D off!!! Oh, wait....

Not making fun of you, but seriously, if it's in 3D, and you can turn it off, what are you mad about? That they included 3D in the first place?

 

[Midna]

Nintendo continues to say fuck-you to disabled gamers by pushing features not everyone can accomplish.

Good job people-friendly Nintendo.

Yeah. From day 1, Nintendo has been doing this to the disabled community. From the moment they introduced the NES and Gameboy Color, they've been screwing over color blind or deficient people. Why couldn't Nintendo just leave their consoles black and white? Maybe they could even have made games that only produce sound, so blind people can play them. It's only fair.

Good job people-friendly Nintendo.

If that person has a sibling that can walk, they can use them to get play coins from walking instead, it's cruel but it works.
