| NotStan said: Ah, but I see why. The price has been dramatically lowered, you can now get 3DS for only about 20% more than DS in most stores. Why would you go for DS which is pretty much nearly it's discontinuation when you can 3DS for slightly more that will still be supported for years to come AND has backwards compatibility, it's a great achievement, don't get me wrong. But the price at which it comes is a bit concerning(No pun intended). There is very little room left for maneuvering in the price. |
Considering that it is selling at a record breaking pace, I don't think a 3DS price drop is going to occur in the near future. If they were interested in raising the price, they would release a new model which costs 20% more and clear out the old models - similar to what was done with the DS Lite, DSi, and then the DSi XL.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
