I'm so happy right now. Though I don't know if its worth sacrificing a big screen for customisable face plates. Can't decide which size to get. First world problems.


I'm going XL because I have a thing with large screens (typing this from my Xperia Z Ultra) but the smaller one is more comfortable imo. Also the faceplates are pretty cool... Grr why is this so damned hard. *sigh* Metallic Blue XL it is. Will go preorder tomorrow.

Nope, dead serious.

Those prices are in AUD, but it works out to $88 USD for a game, $381 USD for a Wii U, $532 USD for a PS4/Xbone.

Being a gamer down under ain't cheap.

this is unfair for the Australians!you are such a rich country,why so much high tax?



They haven't confirmed any exclusive games being released at the time of launch so far as I can tell...xenoblade from what i've read is not being released until 2015...Im australian and I intend to buy a n3ds xl but I might as well wait til next year if that's the case unless I'm wrong.
