The placeholder price at the Gamestop I work at is 999.99 becuase they don't know (or aren't allowesd to reveal) the price yet.
if nintendo handheld owners have proved anything it is that they are made out of money.
how else could N issue a hardware revision every 8 months and sell another metric ****load of them?
my suggestion is to wait 8 months for the 3ds lite or the 3ds XL or the 3ds micro or the 3ds in lilac (naow for girlzzz) or the 3ds red mario edition or the 3ds pocket or the 3ds pokemon or the ect, ect...

Well you know 299 does sound believable, but Im guess is more like $249. Pure game gadgets for that price is hard to sell so I think Nintendo will try to keep the cost down as much as possible, but thats just my speculation.
Anyways I dont think psphone or 3ds is going to make me want to run to the store and break my piggybank.

Yes because this random lowly EB worker has a direct link to Nintendo HQ, and receives gaming news personally from Satoru Iwata himself, before even the general media.

These threads proves that 90% of SWers only read the title or just believe anything that they're told.RogueShodown

I just wish they would get around to announcing the price...I mean its been how long since we knew about 3ds? we need a price point.
Its $300 bucks in US, here is a linkhttp://www.gamespot.com/news/6280301.html?tag=latestheadlines;title;1

And how many models of the PSP are there? Its unfair to single out Nintendo on this and ignore the face that this is a common occurrence in the electronics indsturdy.
Why is the DS always singled out for having several models when other systems like the Atari 2600(2 models), Intellevision(2 models), NES(2 Model), Genesis(3 models), SNES(2 models), 3D0(3 models), PS1(2 models), PS2(2 models), Xbox 360(2 models) and PS3(2 models) have done the same thing over the years?
And those are just home consoles, lets not forget the handheld systems like the Lynx, Game Boy Family, PSP, Wonderswan, and other portables that have also seen various hardware revisions over the years.
Hardware revisions are done to cut costs, fix problems and issues with previous models of the hardware, and renew consumer interest in a product.
This argument is flawed by the inherent fact that Nintendo is not the only one who has brought out revised hardware over the lifespan of a system. If you're going to call out Nintendo on this, then you better do the same for Sony, Microsoft, Sega, Atari, and other companies that have also done the same thing over the years.
Otherwise, drop this pathetic argument.
I hope it's more than $300, because at $300 it's going to be sold out for months.

The median household income in the US is $50,000. Now my household is significantly above the median, but even at $50k I don't think it's hard to set aside $1000 a year to cover your entertainment. With a 3DS, assuming the system is $300 and the games are $40, you could buy a 3DS, 17 games and a carrying case on your budget.

People regularly buy cellphones in the price range of $300 to $500. Let's not play this game System Wars. It's the game where you pretend you (and the entire world) are extremely poor whenever you want to bash a product, and yet when your company of choice releases a $1000 add-on, you say "oh well yes of course, you get what you pay for".

Right.

in reality I purchased all the systems but even I can see the pattern to your opinion on such topics...in the fact that because you are well off you don't grasp simple concepts that yes the majority of people really are poor in the world. I had to scrounge for my gaming budget I've given up on food and cigarettes for my games.I hope it's more than $300, because at $300 it's going to be sold out for months.subrosiansarcasm? when you have the competiton, and I mean other systems, do the same things in a way better way why would I want to pay more? Meh I know it will sell, but hoping for a company to charge us more? :|
