How hard is it to go back to regular size 3DS from XL, screen-wise? I still have an "old" 3DSXL.

 

[Bread]

If it's available online i might bite

for sure, $99 is the price point i've been waiting for.

 

[Cert.in.Death]

What a great dea-

*remembers Switch reveal, launch in March

I'm good.

 

[x3sphere]

Nice, going to buy this to replace my old XL.

 

[HotHamBoy]

Damn. I just bought a PS Vita too...

You made the right choice.

How hard is it to go back to regular size 3DS from XL, screen-wise? I still have an "old" 3DSXL.

It was easy for me. The N3DS screen is still bigger than the OG 3DS's. The pixel density is much better. The form factor and comfort is vastly superior.

Man I really want this but switch is so soon

It's a $100 and has a gigantic library. The Switch library isn't going to be very big for at least a year.

 

[Big Green Anus]

Wow, I might trade in my 2DS for this!!

 

[Sterok]

So now you can get a New 3DS + Pokemon for $150. That is going to clean up this holiday.

 

[J-Tier]

I guess I'll buy one or two of these...

 

[Mellahan]

Question is... IP screen?

 

[jbug617]

I'll buy that to upgrade my XL

 

[Moltenix]

Sweet deal but I really don't NEED to upgrade right now. Gotta wait for March to make the Switch.

 

[Namikaze]

Wow, and the big news is the black model is finally releasing in the US. I'll definitely think about getting another one if they don't sell out.

 

[J@hranimo]

....and I JUST got the Super Mario 3D Land bundle from Target over a week ago.

Fucking shit. Why did they wait until NOW to release a black n3DS???

 

[The Faceless Master]

time to jump in?

 

[SpaceBridge]

Where is this deal?

 

[Mitch]

In for a black one. I've been wanting to get one of these for so long.

Please let it be online.

 

[ThatsMytrunks]

Fuck. I picked up a white one after giving up on them releasing a black one.

I have too many 3DS's.

...I wonder what firmware this one will come with.

 

[mrmickfran]

What's the size comparison to the regular XL?

 

[JSevere]

got the Mario 3D Land bundle a month ago, kinda wished I wanted for this lol. pretty amazing deal, comes with the felt faceplates too it looks like

 

[cw_sasuke]

Okay thats an awesome price - dont forget to pickup DQ7R while you are at it.

 

[MUnited83]

 

[ionitron]

Shit. I want, but shouldn't, I cant justify it when my current 3DS is fine. Maybe I'll trade it in.

I love the new 3DS design

 

[Mac the KNife]

I was hoping they'd do something like this.

 

[galvatron]

Nice, going to buy this to replace my old XL.

Ditto.

Got stuck away from home for a few weeks and used the XL daily. Despite big hands it's still heavier than I'd like and the 3D sweet spot is too finicky. Thought I'd have to wait until post switch for the cheap upgrade...

 

[maxcriden]

Wait, why does the title say black Friday? Article makes it sound like this is the new ongoing price.

 

[Menitta]

Now that I have a car, I'm actually gonna try to get some good Black Friday deals. Cyber Monday isn't exciting enough.

 

[Razmos]

I imagine the likelihood of this deal coming to the UK is very low

 

[RevolutionizeTheGame]

I've always wanted the smaller 3DS but ended up getting the Majora's Mask one from Best Buy(surprisingly with no issues ordering one online). It's $99.99 but I'd probably spend twice as much on faceplates, so I'll stick with what I've got.

 

[Gator86]

Might grab one of these for Pokémon. This is actually a legitimate price for this hardware.

 

[Penguin]

I hope they keep it around beyond the holiday season.

I think a 100 dollar new 3DS can give the device some extended life with indie titles and smaller games

 

[Caelus]

Fucking finally, fuck yes, regular black n3DS for $99!

 

[Erheller]

Holy crap, this is exactly what I've been waiting for as a poor college student

 

[Verder]

Am I gonna have to stomp people through Walmart or target for this or is it going to be easily accessible for everyone ?

Nintendo just take this L for the one time

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

Holy fuck that's an unbelievable price!! I've been on the edge about dumping money on yet another 3DS, but that's an insane price. So Canada?

It sounds like this is a new ongoing price rather than a black Friday deal.

 

[cireza]

If I can get a new New 3DS for only 99 euros in France in the coming months, I will surely buy one again.

 

[evilromero]

Very tempted. Getting back into my 3DS w Animal Crossing and lamenting the lack of being able to scan amiibo.

 

[Undead Fantasy]

Time to replace my launch 3DS.

 

[Muzicfreq]

And just when I bought the Galaxy New3DS.... /sigh well at least I know I have dual ips panels.

 

[DR2K]

This is what the price of the hardware should be by now.

 

[Malyse]

Shit.
I was going to buy my mom a 2DS since her 3DS just broke, but this is a really good deal.

 

[wiibomb]

Well I hope amazon gets the deal... it could be interesting for people looking to change their old broken 3DS' or even just getting one

 

[maxcriden]

I hope they keep it around beyond the holiday season.

Yeah, it's unclear how many they're making or when it's for. Surely they aren't intending it to sell for one day only.

 

[Calm Mind]

I know this place usually frowns upon this. But can we just revel in the all-out assault that Nintendo is having on the wallet this Holiday season. I can't even keep up at this point. I am thankful that the Switch was delayed to March 2017.

 

[phanphare]

and I already bit on the white pokemon bundle thinking the black one would never come...

I am sad

 

[bman94]

Goddammit why couldn't this be for the XL????

 

[deletethis123]

Black one is coming to NA? I bought a white one a month ago becasue I gave up. Ugh.

 

[pablito]

Will the Switch play 3DS games? I remember doing a search and physical was a no go. Digital maybe?

If not, I'll be getting this.

 

[mightynine]

And just when I bought the Galaxy New3DS.... /sigh well at least I know I have dual ips panels.

I have to ask, what made you want the Galaxy one? It seems like such a random design.

 

[Gutek]

Where do I buy this?
