Pocket-Lint: Sainsbury’s will sell the Nintendo 3DS for £199.99, becoming the first mainstream retailer to break the £200 barrier.
The move undercuts most of the competition although only by a few pounds.
Check out the newly-announced NES Nintendo 3DS XL, Persona Q Nintendo 3DS XL and Super Smash Bros. Nintendo 3DS XL systems.
Wow The NES Looks Tear Jerking.Also The Article Failed To Mention Its Gamestop Exclusive Other Than That Nice Article
HotHardware: Generally you don't bite the hand the feeds you, but apparently Nintendo doesn't feel GameStop provides all that much financial sustenance, hence the console maker isn't thinking twice about competing against the new and used games retailer with lower priced refurbished consoles. That's right, Nintendo is now selling refurbished 3DS and DSi XL game consoles in the U.S., and at prices that are lower than GameStop.
Joystiq - The 3DS has surpassed five million units sold in the United States, Nintendo announced today. Contributing to that new milestone: over 155,000 3DS systems were sold in the US in the month of June, according to NPD data cited by Nintendo.
Good deal for the people there, i think £199.99 is still more than $250.
But i will not be getting it, due the announcement of NGP, i was never into Handhelds up until 6 years back when Sony announced (PSP), i believe PSP proved that Handheld gaming isn't just for the Kids, Adults can also Game on the Go.
Nintendo is still making Kids friendly product & thats the market they are targeting with 3DS. while NGP & the games coming on it, is more Adult friendly.
£30 drop in price is a good surprise for all that are Nintendo 3DS fans. Probably was not selling fast enough at the old price.
For £30 you can get an extra game, and amazon have a free delivery option on the top of the price reduction. This is a good deal.
the device is not worth the price!
I feel sorry for people who will be paying £200+ for it because they are getting ripped off, though thanks to them NIntendo will introduce a better model.
I actually tried the system and I tell you it feels outdated!
The 3D device itself......it's AMAZING!
"You have to see it to believe it!" no sh* sherlock!
It's way better than ps3 3d on a 40 inch hd tv, no sh*
If you've tried both, you'll believe me
its been £199.99 on shopto.net since it went on sale for pre order whats the big fuss
