Not anywhere near enough. This thing sells £50 under RRP in the UK and still no one buys it.

As with the Vita, I think a lot is down to advertising. 

And it's also coming with Wind Waker, so it's a good deal if you're a Zelda fan.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

It's about damn time!!! Hopefully this propels them into some substantial sales for the holiday season.

Umm I might end up getting one this year after all. That Zelda bundle does look tempting.

While this is very good news it's very very stupid to announce a price cut 1 month in advance, the next few weeks will be a pain to watch.

i must be the only person angry at this. no not because i could have saved some cash but because DAT GAMEPAD!!! =( my collection will sorely miss having you

What's so special about the Zelda gamepad? It only has a couple of small Zelda logos, no special colors or pictures or anything.

That said I really want the bundle. I'm crossing my fingers I will get hold of one. At 300 Euros it's a bargain.

that alone will have me pay $150 online for a 2nd hand Gamepad. the problems of a collector =(

Well i might bite this xmas if we get the price cut in the UK too and the retailers drop below the current £199 (Asda price), more than likely go for a 3DSXL tho. If im allowed anything after the PS4 in november

They're already a pain to watch...

Let's hope this price drop will change all that.

Alright, your move Sony and Microsoft. It's time for a price drop on PS3 and X360 now too. These prices are too greedy this late in the gen.


the PS3 already got a price cut

Tempting offer, really. Not quite enough, I'm afraid.

What do you mean? Will people sell the Windwaker gamepad only for $150 on Ebay?

How much hardware do you have in your collection?
