Bit gutted that this has been priced up at £230 will still look at getting one providing Zelda is still a launch title.

Price as expected TBH, and with all the health issues surounding this kind of 3d think im going to wait. One thing i find strange is that the 3D only works if the 3DS is still and you are viewing directly, so how will a 3D game uses its gyros? Will have to move your head around with the 3DS? or will they just not use 3d?
Think ill wait to see what the PSP2 offers and at what price, still its nice to see a new gen of handhelds arrive.

It will work when it's not still, the viewing angle for 3D to work isn't the best but that was 2-3 months ago pre production.

I'm guessing it'll be a lot better at release.

Nice to see we get shafted on price again, I won't be buying one at launch as £220 is just too much to justify on a handheld console.

 

[incubation]

Price point has really put me off, think i'll hold off let the early adopters get it and see if it buggers their eyesight up before I take the plunge and maybe grab a decent bundle offer after its been out a while.

[The Running Man]

Lies, there's no one under 50 who had Ridge Racer! Its Nee possible!

Amazon have it at £219. They usually get fairly good console deals going on, so they might be worth a punt.

Another company has it for £217 with a free "executive" 3DS case ;D

Is it a pre-order only offer?

 

[K1LLSW1TCH]

Don't mind paying £220, I had £250 set aside especially so even though it's pricey, especially for a handheld it's something I've looked forward to for a long time and will be a belated Christmas present as that's where most of the money has come from. I didn't get to watch all the conference as pesky real life got in the way, did I miss much?
