Anyone else getting a 3DS after the price cut? I tried one properly for the first time a few days ago (late, I know) and the 3D effect and motion sensing (played Zelda) blew me away. Very impressed! My old DS Lite's hinge is gubbed so I'll definitely be getting one of these soon.

I got one at U.S. launch (March 27th) and I do enjoy the 3D. I'm also still happy with it in spite of the price cut (the fact that the 20 free games are old does not bother me one bit).

If you already own a 3ds before the price cut, you get 10 NES games and 10 GBA games.

In the UK, the street price is expected to be, at some stores, around £150 or a bit less, while online it will be between £130 and £140.

I've just brought one from Gamestop at £155.

They're $350 in Australia at the moment and going down to $250, lol. Its a lot cheaper to just import.

Also bought mine at launch. Game selection isn't very large yet, but I've still had a lot of fun with it quite regularly and those free games are coming, so I don't regret buying one early at all.

I always feel like it's missing something if the 3D is turned off.

I was told that they're dropping the price to about £120 (equiv.) here. That would be crazy. My source is "some guy in a shop", so I would be prepared to bet anything on the back of that.

I hear the 3DS has region protection. Is that true for some games or all?

The 3DS plays all original DS games but 3DS games and DSiWare are all region-locked.

Have they hacked it yet to play pirated games?

OK, just kidding.


I might get one, just for Zelda, as soon as I get some extra money.
