I'm shocked.

Not at the 3DS price drop but the fact that so many gamers resisted the hype and forced Nintendo's hand. Pat yourselves on the back!

Me personally, before the 3DS even released I told myself the most I'd pay is $180. Now that it's $170 though I'm still not sure it's worth it, given today's game library (mostly ports and remakes).

How about you? Are you going to buy one now?

I'm gonna wait till the good games are out

ill probaby wait for the price drop of the new version

I dont think resisting gamers caused the price drop, if that was so all Wii games that arent selling alot would cost less 30 dollars.

I won't get it until the first redesign comes out. I don't like the first versions of portables.

By principle? If everything is fine with the first batch of the hardware ( looks, built quality, price) you'd still ignore it and wait for a revision?

Nintendo is to handhelds as Capcom is to fighting games.

You made it sound like that concerns every current/future portable, not just Nintendo. I'm sure they'll release newer models in the future but I'm pretty much fine with the current design. The first DS model was bulky as hell (what were they thinking?!) and I understand why/if people didn't see the appeal of it. Anyway I'm sure there will be trade-in deals when the newer 3DS model hits the stores.

I recommend it, it is a good handheld. It has graphics comperable of 2 wii's. why? the 3d effects create 2 images therefore it needs twice the power

buy it already, they can't make games if the system does not sell well.

Husband and I are trading in the DS lite and DSi for a 3DS when the price drop hits. We wanted a 3DS at launch, but the hubby was out of a job at the time and I felt guilty about wanting a $250 handheld. One question, does the 3DS only come in three colors? My husband saw a picture of an orange 3DS somewhere and he wants that if we can find it. I can't wait to get our 3DS. Also going to get the new Devil Summoner game too since it comes out on my birthday.

I bought it at launch. 250 was a bit pricey, but i skipped the wii and sorely missed that Nintendo charm. One of the selling points for me WAS the portable nes/gb/gba/snes?/n64? VC. Now that I'll be able to get most of the games I wanted off that for free, I don't feel that bad.
