Nintendo 3DS XL preorder £157.95 at Zavvi using code SUMMERSAVER
The new Nintendo 3DS XL is the new entry to the Ninteno handheld family. Available in 3 colours Red, Blue and Silver. The 3DS XL offers a better battery life and 90% larger screens than the current 3DS! (4.88 inch top and a 4.18 inch bottom) with the same resolution.
Don't forget you can still play DS games on this beast. Also bundled with a 4GB SD card so plenty of space for Nintendo eshop games - and future (starting with the new mario game) Nintendo 3DS titles will offer digital downloads.
** Please be aware that there is no AC adapter or cradle with this as they are sold separately.
2% quidco also!

yes this is abit weird also that U.S. price is $200, which is just over £128.50 compared to this deal price being £157.95 and we don't even get a charger... :|

US prices don't include sales tax/VAT.
People always think the US is getting an amazing deal but always seem to forget that fact.
£128.50 + our VAT rate of 20% = £154.20
..so £3.75 difference.
..but I do think Nintendo are foolish to not include the charger. It'll only confuse your average member of the public. It would save Nintendo less hassle to include it in the long run.
How cheap.
It must cost them a few pence to include one.
Ridiculous.
Lack of one
I foolishly upgraded my DSi Xl for a 3DS and i've regretted it ever since, i look forward to getting a bigger screen back.
It sucks about the adaptor though.

Bigger screen for the same definition
No second stick
More expensive
Well, no thanks.
Didn't see that coming.
And no AC adapter? WTF?

if you think they are as..."cheap as chips" then i dunno where your buying chips from but id stop their obviously overcharging you big time and taking the p*ss out of you lol
Which is what this is priced up at before the voucher.
UPDATE: A second retail source has contacted MCV to point out that a trade price of £146 would incur an additional VAT bill of around £21.50 per unit, meaning the actual trade price would be around £167.50.
Making this deal "below" trade price, so it will not get cheaper.
That was my point :) I probably should have made it clearer. The reason I said it is because there's a good chance this will be cancelled for that very reason.
