Nintendo 3DS Cheaper!
mariocaseman:
Don't buy a 3DS yet! It is about to get much more affordable. I just got mine last month, I am so pissed! I love it and it is really cool, but I overpaid. Here is the article:

Those who already bought it will receive 10 NES games and 10 GBA games as compensation, so I don't really feel cheated :>
They've only announced half of the games, though.
NES: Super Mario Bros.™, Donkey Kong Jr.™, Balloon Fight™, Ice Climber™ and The Legend of Zelda™
GBA: Yoshi's Island™: Super Mario™ Advance 3, Mario Kart™: Super Circuit, Metroid™ Fusion, WarioWare™, Inc.: Mega Microgame$ and Mario vs. Donkey Kong™

I'm really happy I held off. Going to pick one up the day the price drop hits, I already have Zelda and DoA and I have been dying to play them.
What Nintendo is doing for early adopters is very nice of them, you never see a company do that.
This price drop and the line up that has been slowly growing is going to make the 3DS a big hit this christmas.
The price drop is also going to hit Sony a bit hard, I'm sure they were hoping to win new people over by having the PSV the same price. Now I have a feeling we're going to see the DS/PSP situation all over again.

Amazing deal and a very aggressive move by Nintendo. Ladies and gentleman, the consoles' (handhelds anyone?) war has reborn from ashes (remember the good ol' battles between Nintendo and Sega?).

Hmmmm... So do I buy one now and get all those lovely freebies, or wait for the drop. Decisions, decisions.
