Nintendo 3DS: Why ¥25,000 Is Not $300

That's the translated yen price, but when games come over they often change prices because of differences in economies and what companies know people will and won't pay for things. Did you read it at all? xd

I mean the Wii when it originally came out XD

$250?! Little much...But knowing Nintendo it's probably worth it. I mean, when the Wii came out you could NEVER find one. All the stores were sold out and you would gladly pay $250 if you found one. I really hope it doesn't come down to that when the 3DS comes out.

Well, your going to have to beat down rabid nintendo fan boys, and girls, and break down every obstacle in your path just to get it, so Yeah, it could be like the wii yeah.

See: "No."

This all means nothing to me. I guess the 3DS will be about the same price the Wii was at launch.

Well, the 3DS IS a portable 3d ds which much better graphics and better auto, or some other thing, and your asking for a lower price. It doesn't seem reasonable, but still.

This bewilders me.

The PSP launched for $250 when it came out and that was about six years ago, which, inflation-wise would rise up to about $290, and the 3DS is much more worth it now than the PSP was worth it then (or ever).

Yes, it will probably be a hard item to get no matter what the price. I'll be waiting on launch day.

$300? It was $250.

It's likely. I'm not sure about European prices for things, though.

BAN.

What is this, Q&A time with Fish?

...

That's actually not a bad idea...  

[Mukuchina Kurasu]

Very interesting. Though even 250 is a little much for me to buy at launch I think. I am very sort on money at the moment... sad  

[MaverickDrifter]

Really? Huh, thought it was more than that :/

But anyways, with all that sutff in the 3DS, that's actually not that bad.

Also for Q&A time with Fish, where do da babies com fwum?  

[alsoknownasak]

I would still pay 300$ anyway.  

[problematic briefcase]

Wii was like, $279.99 near launch, wasn't it? o.O I remember it being almost three hundred dollars. No, pretty sure it was like, $179.99. O:

You have an awful memory. You could always look it up if you don't know, too. In the US it was $250.

You'd be surprised at how bad it is. :c
