If i`m not mistaken the DS line isn`t even at 99$, yet it still has appeal even after 8 years. Nintendo has been doing a good business with it!


DS's are exactly $99.99. But still, it's been a great sucess. Hell, it's been competing with the Vita!



My friend is a Vtuber, check him out.

I was more talking about the whole DS line (DS Lite, DSi and DSi XL). If i`m not mistaken DSi XL costs the same as a 3DS.
You are right, DS is still putting up a fight and that`s because DS still matters.

Guess i was almost completlt wrong, then! :D
I just checked amazon and the Xl version was more than $130, so i assumed it was like that everywhere.

At $99 for pretty much the entire DS family, no wonder DS keeps on selling - and could sell for a good time!

This may not be the best thread to post it but I'm sure you guys are the right ones to ask.

So Black Friday, where should I buy a 3DS XL? Also if bundles are cheaper options the main games I care about are Mario 3D land and Revelations. Oh and is the analog add on for XL worth it and common in the US? LOL spare me that talk about stylus aiming being better than dual analog.

I'm European, so can't answer the first part, but for Revelations the analog add-on is definitely worth it. Revelations doesn't support stylus aiming (because the touchscreen is the HUD and inventory screen), so without it, you'll have to aim with the a/b/x/y buttons.

Can't help you on the where, but there is supposed to be some 3DS / Mario Land bundle for black friday, don't know the details or the where.

One thing I do know is the circle pad, and its not really worth it IMO.

The circle pad is good if you are left handed (I am) but it does not add a true extra circle pad to the 3DS, it simply duplicates the one on the left and puts it on the right as well, so they are not seperate controls.

This depends on the game.

In Revelations, the circle pad is a proper second circle pad. Moving is done with the left, aiming with the add-on. In Kid Icarus however, the circle pad is indeed just a duplicate for the left circle pad.

Too all of you spanish Nintendo fans out there... here: Did you pre-order your Wii U at gameSHOP? If you did you might get lucky.

According to GoNintendo ( http://www.gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=191371 ) the store seems to be selling their consoles a week early.
And don`t worry, they got pic to prove it!
