Disclaimer -I don't know if this has been done yet, I looked back three pages and didn't see a poll or question similiar to mine. Sorry in advance if I missed it I've been gone for a month so I'm not really sure that this question hasn't been asked.

The question is simple I remember when 3DS launched talking to tons of users here on VGChartz about whether they would be purchasing a 3DS. I of course being a massive Nintendo fan was sold and their were other loyal consumers across VGChartz. However I ran into a tons of VGChartz users who were not going to buy 3DS.

Some consumers said with Vita launching at a similiar price they were going to go with Sony, they said Sony offered more bang for their buck. Sony was innovating in a few ways adding new features never seen before on a mainstream handheld games console. 3DS only really added 3D to the picture and some VGChartz users weren't satisfied. However with 3DS only going to be 169.99$ is that enough bang for your buck? If you were going to go with Vita which is almost 300$ does Nintendo pricing 3DS at nearly half that price weigh in to your decision? Has your outlook on 3DS versus Vita changed? Or do you still think Vita's price is reasonable and worth the investment where as 3DS at such a cheap price is still not?

How about the other Nintendo fans here on VGChartz, I remember many fans here saying they were waiting for the price to go down, or saying they were going to skip out on 3DS due to the high price. Now that Nintendo has cut the price so drastically is that going to weigh into your decision? With such a low price are you now going to purchase a 3DS? Is the price good enough now for you? Or do you still think the price is too high?

One last factor in on this price cut and question. Games, many VGChartz users said they wouldn't pay 250$ for a console with no games, at 169.99$ does that change your decision? Also with so many great first party titles still coming is that enough content for you to justify paying 169.99$? Those of you wanting online content, is the ambassador program worth the 250$ or reduced price you can buy a 3DS for prior to August 11th? Are the games enough to motivate you to purchase a 3DS?


I really want to know opinions from VGChartz users who don't already own 3DS, does the price cut announcement and ambassador program sway you to purchase a 3DS? Will you now be purchasing one?
