Nintendo 3DS XL

Post » Sun Aug 05, 2012 5:29 pm

Okay, I have not owned a handheld game device since my Gameboy Advanced a decade ago -- and, I only had it for a year. In short, I'm ready for another and after looking at everything (the DSi, 3DS, PSPVita) have decided on the 3DS XL coming out in a few weeks (here in the US). Does anyone know the best place to buy one? I've looked for bundles and promotions at GameStop, BestBuy, Amazon, etc. and couldn't find anything. Also, I was hoping there might be some limited editions such as http://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-3DS-Limited-Edition-Legend-Ocarina/dp/B006C47TCK%3FSubscriptionId%3D19BAZMZQFZJ6G2QYGCG2%26tag%3Dsquid890013-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3DB006C47TCK, which is for the regular 3DS, but couldn't find news of any. Is anyone else considering buying it and/or have any suggestions?

I don't want to have buyers remorse so I may just wait some months afterwards to see what comes out.

You will have buyers remorse until Shin megami sensei iv or soul hackers comes out... might be best to wait for a store to offer a free game with purchase.

Wal-Marts (or any supercenter) and Game Stop will usually be great places to buy a 3DSXL. I own the standard 3DS and I get many many usuage out of it---I can even record movies on it shown here----> http://youtu.be/waUkkd_fCVs.
