FUCK YOU SCALPERS REEEEEEEEEEE ITS SOLD OUT EVERYWHERE
FUCK YOU SCALPERS REEEEEEEEEEE ITS SOLD OUT EVERYWHERE
so? its boring looking and you can find regular 3DS anywhere.
go make some stickers and stick them to your 3ds. same thing.
Yeah but the big point was its $99
I don't even understand why scalp this of all things. People would much rather have an XL most of the time.
>buying a 3DS when it's replacement will come out after the Switch release
You now realize the 3DS line is 6 years old in February.
It's not the face plates that people want. This is by far the cheapest n3DS yet and actually the first time the regular sized black has been sold in North America.
Nintendo autists, I have a buddy who flips amiibos and those SNES for major profit.
But these seem to be going for 150-160 each. That's only 20-30 profit once you include shipping and fees.
The amiibo bubble burst.
The NES mini scalping made sense as dumbfuck normies want that thing as well as Nintendo Autists. This makes absolutely no sense. You can make what, $40 at most in profit considering people could buy the Mario 3D Land set as opposed to this.
People still buy amiibos?
They do, but the fad is over and now you can actually find them in stores for MSRP.
Rage harder faggot!
Not at all, you bought and used it like you're supposed to
Last night at Walmart I saw a Jew buying a full two cart loads of ps4s and xbones
what, why?
Were they like 200 a piece?
non-handheld non-nintendo consoles are usually difficult to flip
Really? When I was at Best Buy they almost didn't let me buy 2 3ds's.
>consider buying 3DS
>remember that it has no games I want to play
close one
I refuse to believe this is true. The 3DS has one of the most solid libraries ever, second only to the PS2 maybe.
Yeah, because literally everywhere has them, stacks of them. There's no sense going to some ebay seller when you can go to literally any walmart.
>3DS is dead next year when the Switch comes out
>Nintendo still making limited edition 3DS
Former walmart employee here
You're either lying or he knew someone who worked there and was willing to risk their job, walmart company policy is to limit electronics sales to one per customer on black friday
Completely serious. Considered buying a 3DS multiple times and always decide against it because of my limited interest in the library
Do you even like videogames?
>handheld gaming in 2016
stop being 12
If you're being honest then you just don't like video games, or you're one of those grand strategy autists
Fuck off Quentin
More so than most on here, I'd say.
nah I was never very good at grand strategy games
Absolutely not lying, I'll screenshot my friends snapchat to prove it fucker
I've been waiting for the n3ds in black since they so graciously didn't send them to US at release. I'm sure there are more of me.
Is there hope for Monday?
>If you look closely, you can almost see his hands eagerly rubbing together
i used to work at toy r us in times square...there was an international seller who used to come in buy out entire stocks of games when buy 2 get one free or bogo was active during the holidays. The manager would ever assign a store member to help them grab what he could. I'm not surprised this happened.
also gaming is alot more expensive in other countries then here...especially in Brazil so if you take the effort you can make some people can make a lot of money exporting games and systems.
Weren't people like "SMALL n3DS FOR BABBY HANDS"?
What happened to that?
that proves literally nothing, its just a fucking employee using an unloading trolley
the shitposters are either busy playing their new 3DS or crying over not getting one
That cart he has all the ps4s on is an L cart, they are only used by employees, a lot of things look off about that pic, actually
If that's actually real then the store manager is going to be fired immediately if that gets sent to the district manager, also he's going to get mugged in the parking lot
>Nintendo makes a product people actually want
>Don't make enough or even close
>Surprised when they lose millions each fiscal quarter
You have to make products to meet up with demand or you will lose money, Nintendo.
Work at a local wallyworld, one nigga literally filled an entire buggy with all of them and all the 3d virtual reality things for the smart phones.
Then he had the gall to act shocked when everyone stood back and let the masses pillage his horde as he tried to escape the store
When I said electronics I keant literal electronic products, not optical media used by electronics, walmart doesn't limit the sale of games at all, I used to see many a nigger get into fights because someone would grab literally every copy of a game on black friday then scalp them outside the door
>Then he had the gall to act shocked when everyone stood back and let the masses pillage his horde as he tried to escape the store
What do you mean, people mass robbed him in broad daylight of all his stuff as soon as he paid and left the store?
It's not that demand doesn't exist. It's that the demand shouldn't be enough to be able to profit well from scalping this product.
He did the same thing last year with iPods and iPads
Yes. Have you never been to a walmart on black friday? I went to one in the ghetto once with friends to watch fights and they literally had riot police there on standby. Even the walmart out here in my sleepy countryside town has a few cops posted up at the doors and pallets of tvs and consoles.
No, I live in the UK. Retailers are trying to push it over here but stories like these are reasons I don't want it
Folks was grabbing the shit out of his buggy before he could make it to the front and getting uppity when the associates wouldn't defend his shit.
Still not as bad as the hatchimals shit though, 2 scalpers were trying to get all of them and stealing them from anyone they seen with em. Law eventually got their asses
I thought the appeal of this thing was the pricetag. Why the hell did it sell out like this?
He's buddies with the store manager then, that's the only possible way he could be doing that. This is even more apparent if he's using inventory carts that are literally only used by overnight employees while stocking.
Due to the amiibos, and the NES Classic Edition, people think Nintendo anything is scalp material.
Stupid. But whatever, I just bought a galaxy version instead
>Everywhere around me is sold out of the $99 copy
>Sending in my old XL for repair costs $101 dollars
I guess im not that mad anymore.
It's actually not bad at any store besides walmart. Black friday is all about electronics, walmart is the only store that sells electronics that violent niggers can afford with their welfare checks.
Target is too upscale and there aren't many in the ghetto, gamestop is under contract with vidya companies to be strict about customer purchase limits, and best buy is way too expensive for most of the US even during their black friday "sales".
Every year more and more people participate in cyber monday instead of black friday. No crowds and oftentimes better prices, only downside is you have to wait a little.
They will sell it for less than other new 3ds after.
They will probably make like a 20 dollar profit each.
>Waking up at 3 am just to make 30 dollars off a 3ds
What a life
I'd still take shopping at Walmart over bestbuy and GameStop on black Friday.
GameStop and bestbuy are smaller stores and usually packed to the gills
Black Friday is NOWHERE near as bad as it used to be. These past few years have been extremely tame.
Considering they buy a bunch, once they sell them all they will probably net a couple hundred bucks.
If they sell them all, and over time.
Still not worth it imo
How is that the scalpers fault and not nintendo's for failing to satisfy demand?
For scalpers its all about buying as much as possible to max profits and unfortunately they try to scalp anything and everything electronic/toy/collectable
Just spend the extra $50 and good get Mario pack in game to go with it.
Like you're already spending $100, $50 more aint gonna kill ya
Honestly as someone who has the n3ds I would strongly suggest the XL. My brother has one and I think it is tons better. People are worried about dpi but I think it still looks better
i sort of wanted one then i remember I hate handheld gaming and never played my DS even though I had a flashcart
it's black friday, store policy goes out the window in favour of not aggrevating the beasts that are called customers
No, fuck you and all the denial niggers
Most of the awful shit is just the people getting trampled and it seems that is dying down due to cyber monday.
Though I still love the fight I saw between two white girls in a Target over some beats a few years ago. It was a nice surprise over what I consider the most useless thing to fight over.
lmao, literally a jew
As someone who owns a N3DSXL I would advise against it.
The battery life is garbage, and do to the increased size it's much more fragile. The hinges break easily and the components are loose inside.
The regular N3DS is a compact little machine which means you can be a little bit rough with it.
My cat knocked my XL off a mantle and it took a 4 foot drop onto hardwood and bricked.
I've dropped my regular one tons of times and had no problem
From the way my manager explained it even with the shit thats supposed to have limits their was really nothing we could do to keep jackasses from hoarding the shit.
Officially they could break their balls at the register and that was about it.
>Dat feel when a guy bought half of the $5 32gb flash drives
I doubt the true demand of it matches how many scalpers there are buying this thing. Nintendo would have had to produce too many of these things and have stores stuck with them to out produce scalpers and the people legit wanting it.
Got two from Amazon earlier. Your tears are a delightful bonus!
I got 5 from the local GameStop
>The 3DS has one of the most solid libraries ever
there's this meme again!
I have never been in a crowded best buy on black friday, it's just way too fucking expensive for most people to even bother and their sales are barely sales because everything they carry is top end name brands that are barely sold for profit to begin with
It also helps that the people who actually do go there are 99% white and calmly wait in line like civilized people
Are there really so few good 3ds games?
I have Pokemon X, FE: Awakening, Monster Hunter 4 and Gen.
Will probably get Majoras Mask and Bravely Default at some point..but is there anything else?
Not interested in Mario
Posted last night anonymously, but yeah, bought 4 black ones. Fuck Scalpers, such bullshit.
And Target was a fucking Circus.
no waverace
NINTENDO MAKE ANOTHER FUCKING WAVERACE ALREADY
nice proof
>post random pic of an employee trolly in the middle of the store, mot likely because an employee just got them out of storage to put in the store
>LOOK GUISE SOMEONE BOUGHT THEM ALL EVEN THOUGH I HAVE NO PROOF, THE REGISTER ISNT EVEN ANYWHERE NEAR THEM AND THERE ISNT EVEN ANYONE MANNING THE CART
>FUCK SCALPERS
>but I'm allowed to buy 4 for scalping though
>bought 4 black ones
>FUCK SCALPERS
You're human garbage
And they physically have to go to each stores, too, so they take a hit on gassoline. Hustlers are the saddest hood nuggets out there.
You know that they often let customers use them for large purchases right?
Not quite. First one was second to last at a TRU I made a mad dash to, after Target A fucked up and got none, even after waiting 4 hours in line for it. Second one was one I went to Gamestop for so I can return and re-buy with credit from old one after transfer. 3 and 4 are from Target B which was awesome and unloaded their last truck at 6 AM. I saw that they had 12 on Brickseek so I knew it was only a matter of time. Since I have redcard the target units are the cheapest. Ended up getting 96 bucks for my old N3DS in trade credit so I basically went from white to black with new warranty for only 10 bucks.
Will return a Target one and the TRU one; just needed the 2 cheapest ones for me and my sister.
And I haven't slept for 22 hours.
>just got the fucking thing an hour and 45 minutes ago
You didn't look hard enough or you couldn't be bothered to leave your man-cave for one hour.
Why
>scalpers
Jokes on them I was literally only interested because it's $99.
If I was willing to pay more I'd have just bought the $150 Mario bundle or an XL already.
because these pathetic subhumans will waste entire days for an equally pathetic discount, despite if they worked for as long as they wasted on trying to grab a 3DS, they coudve easily bought 2 new ones
This. I don't think there's nearly as much demand as scalpers are thinking. Sure, there are a few autists that will pay extra, especially for the black one, but many people were only interested because of the price. Lots will go with the bundle or the XL instead of paying scalpers.
What firmware are these Black Friday N3DS systems on anyway?
>jumping through all these hoops to save $5 or make $15
Imagine being so Jewish
Because after I return the 2 I don't need I will have spent a grand total of 122 and some change for 2 brand-new North American black N3DS systems.
And damn if the Isabelle plate don't look great on black.
Just bought two black ones.
Selling on ebay soon.
The one you can't pirate on
yet
I'm willing to sell my hacked Fire Emblem 3DS if anyone is interested, hmu with your best offer.
>3DS is dead next year when the Switch comes out
But you're wrong.
I'll give you a buffalo nickel
Aside from that Oasis game and the new Mario sports compo, it kinda is.
I'll give you tree fiddy
Unless the switch is a mega sucess, I can't imagine them killing their handheld line off. Too much money and plenty of fans will buy both.
I'll tell you a funny joke
