And that's what I did, after some fussing about with the clerks.

Best of both worlds.

For an even bigger Trollan gamestop will be doing a special the 12th-14th.

If you trade in a DS toward the purchase of a brand new 3DS you can get it for a lesser price.

DSi XL = 3Ds for $99.99
DSi = 3DS for $110.99
DS Lite = 3DS for $119.99


This will only be for Powerup Reward members and only if you were a member before 08/04/2011.

If any of you are members you should be getting the coupon in your e-mail soonish.

I read that the 20 free games include 10 AGB games. So much better than NES games! At the moment they're saying they have no plans to release those AGB games outside of this deal, but they'd be stupid not to.

Re: Nintendo 3DS Price Drop; Free Games for Early Adopters
 

Man I don't know if I should do this or run to Wal-Mart today and grab 20 free games. :O

I mean, if those GBA games do come out on the estore, which they probably will, they'll probably not be any less than $10 a piece, and the NES games will be at least $5....and they could both be $5 more than that. But at a minimum that's a $150 value. :\ Which makes sense from a rewards perspective, you're giving back the loyal Nintendo people all their money they missed from the price drop, plus a little more.

Re: Nintendo 3DS Price Drop; Free Games for Early Adopters
 

If GBA comes out in the eShop, I don't think they'll be the same ones offered to the ambassadors, and even if they do go up eventually I don't see it happening for a while and probably around the price range you're talking too.

Either way, you get a pretty neat handheld for a much better price than what I paid for it, regardless of whether you wait for GameStop or go out to Wal-Mart or Target today.

Also reminder: today is the last day to get the price dropped 3DS and log in to the eShop for the Ambassador program. Log in to the eShop before 11:59 PM tonight!

Re: Nintendo 3DS Price Drop; Free Games for Early Adopters
 

Well, I think I've decided to run out to Wal-Mart.

Drop your friend code when you get back and get it on!

Re: Nintendo 3DS Price Drop; Free Games for Early Adopters
 

I now have a 3DS!

Can't believe I just did that...I said I was going to hold out for a long time. but $170 and 20 free games (which look quite good) was too nice to pass up.

I bought a black one and got the OoT remake.

I'm back at work now, so I won't be able to play with it till this evening. Will post a friend code when I can.

My friend code is in my sig

Re: Nintendo 3DS Price Drop; Free Games for Early Adopters
 

I've been showing the AR stuff off at work, everyone is super impressed.

I haven't even played OoT yet (my battery got too low last night so I just let it charge up).

Overall very happy with this purchase, and all I've done is play with the built in software.

Re: Nintendo 3DS Price Drop; Free Games for Early Adopters
 

OoT is a treat. You'll seriously do a double take at the way things look, especially Hyrule Castle Town. It's not pre-rendered anymore!

Re: Nintendo 3DS Price Drop; Free Games for Early Adopters
 

After registering my 3DS at club nintendo, I wondered how much other stuff I could register. Went back and got out all my old Wii and DS games and systems, and registered everything.

I now have over 1300 points. XD

Re: Nintendo 3DS Price Drop; Free Games for Early Adopters
 

Gah shouldn't have done that.

I split it up once I hit platinum because really not worth it beyond that point/save points for next year.
