I think best buy does now.
Best Buy would probably price match
Shit, the one place that won't even list the system on their website. Ugh...

Will stores such as Walmart, Best Buy, or Toys"R"Us price match Target? All the Target stores around me are sold out according to their website.
Charizard XL would be nice I wonder if they'll actually bring it over, how long did it take for the Pikachu XL to come stateside?
All three of them have been known to price match, especially Best Buy and Walmart.
Went to my local Target at around 11 and they didn't have any on display. I asked the guy and he checked back and got the only 3 that they had received. Immediately, 2 other guys came out if nowhere wanting them. One of them said he was there since 8! Do people not think to ask? If I didn't show up, who knows how long they'd be sitting there.
Totally didn't think this would be such a hot item. It's sold out everywhere near me now.

i think next 3DS XL will come 6 months after AC is out.
Not sure I'd qualify selling out 3 per store as a "hot item". Locally near me is the same situation. All locations showed up this morning as "limited" stock on the website, which means they got 1-3 at each store. Half are now sold out according to the website.
Yeah, oddly Best Buy is the one big retailer not carrying it.
I hope not... I've got my fingers crossed for this coming out with the AC launch
WAIT, they don't have it at all?! Maybe I'll get lucky with Walmart again, I got my Ambassador 3DS there for $169 before the price drop.
I'm not seeing anything in our system indicating we might be carrying this special edition 3DS XL but I suppose it could show up last minute. If so, I'm sure we would see it on our 3DS page on BestBuy.com. However, this close to a release date, we normally would have some sort of information prepping us for the launch so my gut says we might not be a participating retailer.
No one else at mine either. I was kind of worried there would be a line after reading about people getting there early on the east coast at CAG. So I made sure I got there early.
I sat in the car and waited though :lol. Too damn cold.
I honestly have no clue how hard these will be to get in the future, but I promised this as a gift and wanted to make sure I got one.
How long is this Target sale going to last anyway?
I want to pick up a pink/white 3DS XL.
I wish Gamestop price matched. I have store credit to use....I would have picked up a 3DS XL if they did
I'll probably stop by a few times during the week if I need to but I'm not going to kill myself over $40.week long or until supply lasts

She let it slip that she wanted 3 for "her kids". Told everyone that the store only had 4 and when the doors open everyone ran in around her. Lots of bitching and screaming from her as people got theirs and she didn't.
In case you're feeling bad, she starts to walk away saying that her husband and sister are at other stores and she's sure they got them all and will resell them for more, etc.

Sometimes I worry about how some people's minds work. "Let's all as a family waste our time and go through a stampede in different stores just to make less than $1000"

lol awesome story. Yeah it's funny how people will say something and then show their true colors when they realize they've failed and then try to get some satisfaction by trying to brush it off like that. Inside, she was def crying.

It was weird. It was 7:55 when i got there and there were maybe 5 people behind her. As soon as more people arrived is when she started getting loud. Some workers got their for their shifts and kept pestering them about what they were doing to make sure she was in there first because she was there since 6am. Kept looking back and giving people angry looks and saying stuff under her breath. When she blurted out the "I need 3" comment is when i let everyone know that store only had 4 in stock( I had asked yesterday). Somes girls behind her said "fuck that" and everyone ran in when doors opened.
All in all, so glad I preordered last night at toysrus.com.
It seems entirely sold out in my area I got to target 30 mins after they opened and just missed the last of 3 I've called and looked everywhere but it seems by 9:00 every store (TrU, Target, Walmart, etc...) was sold out... unbelievable! I ended up getting a blue one. I'll remember to camp out for the next Limited edition.
Good alternative. =D
Thanks! I'm really happy with it The blue genuinely does look really nice, and for $40 off you can't go wrong! For anyone who missed out on the Pikachu 3DSXL, the red/blue/pink w/ a cool decal looks really nice too.
As am I.I hope not... I've got my fingers crossed for this coming out with the AC launch
Tell me where to get the Blastoise one. NOW!
Target said this morning that they MIGHT get more Pikachu 3DS XLs in on Tuesday, but they don't know for sure. Anyone in the know about the likelihood that we'll see more stock this week?
Cos if there's no more Pikachu models, Mrs kitsuneyo wants to get a pink 3DS instead, and we're worried they'll all be out of stock by Tues...
Do you think that's true? Why would they only send 3-4 to each store and then more Tuesday?
You could just buy the pink one now and then return it if there's a Pikachu one.
I don't think it's true, that's why I'm asking! Good idea about swapping it
No problem!

The Blastoise decal is tempting... Oh, and congrats on picking up a blue XL as well
