****The Nintendo 3DS Thread****

I confirmed the original product information with their live chat and got the transcript emailed to me. They then changed their description to console only but I had evidence that I had ordered with the extra goods.
 
Amazon just honoured my order for a silver 3DS XL, charging cable, Monster Hunter 3 and circle pad pro for £124.99.

The order came as just the 3DS XL, but after speaking to support I got the other items ordered with no charge :D

I just asked them for £25 off, they quite happily did it.

Overall I only paid £60 for it as £40 worth of vouchers from my credit card points I renewed :D
 
If i register a 3DS xl today and then sometime next week register Luigis Mansion 2 (just ordered it) will i still get a free Mario 3D Land download code?

Yeah it will work as ling as the promotion is still running at that point.
On another note how hard is Zelda on hero mode! Managed to finish it and 100% it but it tool me over a week and I died 52 times! I only died 3 times on normal mode and 2 of those were against the final boss lol
 
hoping to pick up a 3ds xl in the Jan sales :)

Yeah admittedly I think I will be on the lookout also - I will most likely just get one of those Link Between Worlds consoles - Seeing as Santa took me at my word when I said I did not want anything - Douche have to do everything myself these days. :D
 
Just setting up my 3DS and trying to link my network id that i created on the WiiU. When i set it up on the WiiU i was able to use an underscore but when i am trying to link it to the 3DS i am unable to use an underscore as the symbol bit is greyed out :mad:. Anyone have any ideas how to use a symbol or have i got to make a different ID?


edit: nvm i just found it. You have to push the upper case arrow and it is on the - key.

Can anyone recommend a case for a 3DS XL? I'm after something not too bulky, and minimal, preferably leather. I found this which looks perfect: http://www.sfbags.com/products/nintendo/nintendo-3ds.php

But too expensive to ship from the US :/ Something similar would be great.

I guess no one knows! Seems to be a bit of a grey area. Anyway I found a really cheap slip case on amazon for £2, should do the trick.

I don't even have a 3DS yet, but planning to get one by the end of the month (hoping for a good deal...)

The first game I want to get is Mario 3D Land. I'm aware you can get this free as a download if you register another game, but I think I'd rather buy the physical version of 3D Land than buy say, New Super Mario Bros 2, then download 3D Land free.

I just don't like the idea of having a mixture of physical or digital games, I want one or the other! Anyone else feel the same or am I just retarded? :D or OCD to the max.

On a related note: Does anyone know where I can pick up a cheap copy of 3D Land? I imagine there must be a good deal somewhere since you can pretty much get it for free.

Hi,

Spotted in Asda, they are doing 3DS XL for £149 or you can buy it with (I think it was) a Proffes Layton game for £156, which they had seperately for near enough £40. I would trade that in at Game against Pokemon or Zelda etc.

Are consoles likely to appear any cheaper than £149? "January Sales" have let me down really, nothing much out there on these :(
 
I got an XL from John Lewis for 135 which seemed like a good deal. Been glued to ocarina of time. My only issue is that 3d doesn't work with my stupid eyes :(

I got a 3DS XL at Christmas and I am loving it. Playing mario kart 7, Mario 3d land and just yesterday got Fire Emblem Awakening which so far seems great.

£139.98 for the red/black 3DS XL on Zavvi. Just ordered one for myself :cool: Cheapest I can find it in stock and with no hassles etc.

Next best option is the Asda deal with game at £156 or the Luigi bundle deal currently at GAME with the special edition Luigi console at £189, plus you can claim the free game etc as well as getting the bundled game.
 
My £125 Silver 3DS XL arrived from amazon.

It included:
Silver 3DS XL
Official 3DS XL charging cable
3DS XL Circle Pad Pro
Monster Hunter 3DS
Mario 3D land (via registering the 3DS XL and some codes a very kind chap called Mark from OcUK sent through to me)

Also bought:
Licenced case
Licenced screen protector (this is absolutely fantastic!)

Now to sell on Monster Hunter for a sub £100 3DS XL with lots of extras :D
