im 95% sure they will cut the price before during holiday season... but probably they wont announce it until before black friday..... yay for 10 ambassador games... :)

It makes absolutely no sense to do a cut during holidays, retailers will be doing there own deals/bundles so theres no point for an official cut. Also they wont give an ambassador program if they do cut the price when u say they will, that will be one full year after launch opposed to 5 months for the 3DS price drop.

its called surplusing....

since the sales is abyssbal.... try to put the name in the market to rebound...

it does make sense since the main competition is coming out for the holiday to steal their market... so they need a more competitive price....

Sorry if my last response came off rude. I just mean it makes more sense to either cut the price a few months before the holidays to build momentum leading up to the holidays or to cut the price a few months after the holidays to maintain post holiday momentum.

I think either a $50 cut In August to coincide with a new marketing campaign and first party titles starting to release or a $100 cut next April to foincide with Mario Kart 8 and the start of the fiscal year.
