Already got some for less than 99 from someone I know at gamestop
Got mine today.

fucking scalpers
OK in what way are these better than a standard 3ds?
Fuck you and the scalper employees.
is this for the XL?
ZL ZR buttons, C stick, more processing power for games and homebrew, can stream your screen with homebrew, can play SNES games, can play exclusive games like Xenoblade Chronicles, screen is smaller than the XL so the pixels don't get huge as fuck, cool little colored buttons, swappable faceplates, first small sized NTSC 3DS to come in black, lower price, etc
why do you even want the tiny ones?
I walked into FUCKING GAMESTOP right before they closed on black friday and they still had plenty of Galaxy N3DS XLs in stock. Sure they're double the price, but they are infinitely more comfortable, better build quality, look better too, and have a better battery life, in addition to the bigger screen size.
better processor (only really relevant when it comes to system operations, but still), better 3D technologies like eye-tracking, better cameras, and homebrew-wise, some goodies like streaming without need of a capture card
the C stick isn't as good as the circle pad pro, but that's really the only con. The price point is similar between o3ds and n3ds and their xl versions, so the only real other considerations are do you want metallic gloss or matte finish?
>tfw I won xl 3ds from a frys and didn't trade it in for a new 3ds to play hacked snes games
I regret buying one on black friday. New leaf is shit and donkey kong is shit with the shitty analog stick.
Black one is arriving from Amazon tomorrow. Ordered a White from Walmart on the 25th that's still pending and due to be here on the 22nd if it isn't cancelled.
At any rate, I'll probably get an XL as my second anyway and sell the White (if it isn't cancelled) for face value to someone on Facebook on Christmas Eve. I figure this way, I can anti-scalp the scalpers for at least one console
is it XL? if not it's garbage
My white one I got on Saturday looks pretty snazzy
>so the pixels don't get huge as fuck
Look at this retard over here.
Got an Galaxy XL free with my PS4 but its probably due to I know the manager at my local GameStop personally
Y'all niggas step up.
Did you suck dick for it?
Step
The fuck? it doesn't come with a charger?
If you think yours looks better you're autistic
rekt
You should already have one...
What games are worth playing on this thing?
I bought it years ago, but it just collects dust.
The resolution is the same on small and XL models. XL = lower dpi
Animal Crossing New Leaf just got updated
>mfw
Just got my standard model today. Already transfered everything from my old standard 3DS to the standard New 3DS. This thing is fucking awesome so far. Going to get new faceplates for it soon.
>URL found
NOPE
>anime
I remember middle school
That is some advanced level shitposting
>tfw gamestop order still says "open"
>I've been charged a few hours ago, but the status didn't change
Well?
Good job, now press A again?
>why do you even want the tiny ones?
some people are bothered by the pixel density of the XL
>better processor (only really relevant when it comes to system operations, but still)
It's relevant to everything with NTR.
Why don't you like New Leaf?
well... someone here COULD have been in middle school when that hit?
Got mine at walmart.
I fucking love it, The New 3DS's are probably the only models that don't feel like cheap plastic. Love the button colors and it loads up everything a bit faster.
I've owned the original Light blue 3ds, XL, 2ds and i'd have to say this thing feels like a piece of videogame hardware now.
Best time to buy it honestly, December has some pretty good Digital deals as well.
I bought them for gifts
Doesn't mean you deserve them anymore than anyone else. But then again i'm sure that guy would buy them the same way if he could. I know i would.
>deserve
You get what you make come to you
n3DS worth getting anymore? the switch comes out so soon.
So just earlier today?
I bought this.
I do think mine looks better, though I've never played Monster hunter.
>mfw got online too late and faggots that bought out the stock were already selling them for $150
...
im seeing ones in my area $200 or so
i'm surprised they are selling at all
when i want to scalp shit, it never sells even if im only maybe 20-30% over retail
Does it charge with regular USB?
No, you need an adapter cable, like:
>Back in Stock
So post the link then?
FUCK YOU
It finished charging!
I don't have any games and I'm waiting for slowhax
>buying a N3DS when you can get an out of the box hackable 3DS XL for the same price
Oh golly gee I'm missing out on literally two exclusive games that are just downgraded ports of games I already played on the Wii.
>3DS XL for the same price
>new 3DS
pick one
Mfw got a N3DS XL at N3DS 99 usd price. Step it up boys
Because of the ad mistake I assume. Totally YMMV.
What are the chances of some after Christmas sale? And it will actually be $150 for now?
>can stream your screen with homebrew
That's badass. Seems like the only other way to do that was partnering with Nintendo or pay $200+ on that one site.
That's green.
Now imagine Nintendo sorting out the dozen or so different chargers world wide.
You should have bought the XL from Target when it was 15% off for cybermonday.
SNES games too. Hyrule Warriors and few others run like shit.
If it's hackable, I guess it's worth it.
Haven't heard of any ports for it, its no different from using a 3ds aside from the extra thumbpad and slightly better processor
It really is the DSi of the 3DS
>Target
Buying from fag enablers? No thanks.
What kind of retard would buy an unhackable 3ds, though? Being able to play literally every game for free more than makes up for the price difference.
Is it not hacked yet? I'm sure soon enough.
SNES games run fine on a hacked O3DS.
A few games run like shit but they barely run any better on N3DS.
>SNES games run fine on a hacked O3DS.
Really? Nice. I have my 3DS hacked, but the SD slot is broken. Either that or I fucked up trying to setup autoboot, goes straight to black screen with the SD card in.
Most of them are going to be on an eventually hackable firmware, provided you get LoE before they pull it from the eshop (get it on, all you waitfags)
the window is closing. Nintendo is pulling games with exploits and patching holes in their firmware updates. Slowhax is your last hope really if you don't want to start fucking with hardmods
A FUCKING LEAF here, I got it last thursday
Bro bought one for me, but he only managed to get a white one. still, it's small and cute, I like it. Not sure which SNES games to get off the VC
>LoE
?
Legends of Exidia. only dsiware game left on the eshop with an exploit for current dsiware downgrade or future slowhax potential
Nintendo is currently in the process of pulling it from NA/EU eshops (they already got it off japan store)
toysrus cancelled my order and pretty much all 3ds's you can't find anywhere.
so fucking pissed
if they cancelled your order be sure to call them and complain about the time that has been wasted/time will take for you to get refunded/ and time/money you could have spent purchasing it elsewhere.
fuck you, asshole.
Burgers get fucked, leafs master race
Not really unless you never had a 3DS or just feel like upgrading.
There's like 3 games coming out for it in 2017.
>Not upgrading from a hacked O3DS to a hacked N3DS via DSiWare method
It feels good having Sun/Moon, Smash, MH, etc start up instantly instead of taking like half a minute.
does it work well, does the cable feel like itll shit up anytime soon?
The switch isn't bc and s replacing the WiiU, not the 3ds.
>"upgrading" to an n3ds
I mean, it's your money, but the difference is so minimal and circumstantial that it's a factual waste of money.
>there are peole on this thread like this retard that thinks smaller n3ds screen is better than n3ds xl
My Toys R Us order got cancelled but my order from best buy arrived today. The one I ordered from Amazon and Walmart should come tomorrow
That's not the only bonus. Hacked N3DS does have OCing.
I've already played Xenoblade but it's nice having it on the 3DS too. Portable JRPGs > Console JRPGs. I might actually play Hyrule Warriors now, that shit is literally unplayable on O3DS, 10fps garbage with some of the worst pop in I've ever witnessed.
MH runs better too and having an extra "stick" for camera control is nice rather than using that shitty virtual D-pad.
For $99 that's really nothing. $99 is one console game and a handheld game.
Why are people buying many of these?
WHERE IS THE N3DS XL SALE????
I DON'T WANT TINY SHIT
I've been hearing about people that ordered on the 24/25 having their orders canceled and stuck in processing.
My fat ass ordered on the 28th and already have the UPS tracking number + a confirmed scan out of the station.
So are these the only "normal" sized 3ds's that you can buy currently? Everything other than the special black friday 3ds on amazon, walmart, etc. are the 3DS XL's.
Nintendo removed non-XL's from their site product line.
Because I didn't have a 3DS and $100 was a good price for one.
Also the black one is a scratch magnet!
I mean like many people in this thread are buying like 4 or 5. You probably only need one.
That's a shame. Guess I shouldn't have hesitated when they were on sale.
Scalpers buy out the stock so they can flip them for a profit.
they are VERY cheap. at $100, you have HUGE profit margins when aside of this deal, MSRP is $150, and it's uncommon to find normal n3DSs, plus with Nintendo's lack of deals for n3ds XLs, it will be very easy to move as long as your price is under that of the XL.
So you're looking at between $50-80 profit per n3ds, and if you hold on to them, waiting for slowhax and had the foresight to keep them all on eventually hackable firmwares with all that is required for CFW, you stand to make even more
I heard that there were some Best Buys that were selling XLs for 100 after they sold out of the regular size.
Did anyone else scratch their new black 3DS? It is very easy to scratch the mario plates. I got three from a semi rough surface.
I just used some toothpaste and qtips go get rid of a few scratches, but they left some light white marks. Be careful!
>brother and I go to Target Thanksgiving night with the intent of getting one
>both already have 3DS's, but felt like upgrading
>arrive five minutes after they open
>walk to end of store where Black Friday video game deals normally are
>find out the N3DS was actually in electronics on the opposite end of the store
>hustle over there and everything is gone
>kind of bummed, but not a big deal
>hanging around the display for a couple of minutes deciding if there was anything else we wanted while there
>look down and saw somebody had put back their black N3DS
>quickly snatch it before brother can notice or anyone else sees it
>brother is annoyed and I laugh all the way to the checkout counter
Well It would've gone either way.
>wrap it up
>Christmas day
>give to my brother
>I love you bro
>your brothers face when he didn't realize you gloated was all a show
Fuck that. He would have done the same to me.
The amazon reviews are very good and I agree with them.
