Nintendo 3DS XL with 4 GB card - £169.97 @ Gamestop (3 Colours)

goonertillidiegoonertillidie[helper]

Cheapest by £10 beating Amazon / shopto etc

The Nintendo 3DS XL is a new version of Nintendo 3DS with 90 % larger screens. The new system will create even more immersive entertainment experiences for users, delivering a wealth of games and video content that can be enjoyed on the go.

The new system's battery life outperforms that of the original Nintendo 3DS, and it comes bundled with a 4 GB SD card.

Even with the addition of the bigger screen, Nintendo's aim was to still make the system available at a reasonable purchase price. Because of this, and because so many fans already own a previous handheld, an AC adapter will not be included

    I'm happy with my current 3DS, although I'd love to see what the XL is like in person.

    Also, love the photo!

    Rather get a Vita at that price, at least it comes with a charger!

    Rarely does mainstream success equate to quality, sadly.

    3DS is really fun & the larger screens are a must have specially the 3D one but i will wait for prices to come down or for the likes of Gamestation to announce a Trade in offer for 3DS for 3DS XL + cash. :)

    Yeah, it only outsold the PS3 and 360 several times over.

    Cold from me for two reasons:
    1) It looks far too big from the pic on the right side - will not fit into my rugsack
    2) Don't like white - prefer black or blue

    What's a 'rugsack'? Is it simply a sack for rugs?

    But the memory cards require you to re-mortgage your static caravan. So it's swings and roundabouts.

    Guess you thought the Wii would be crap too?

    No one was talking about sales. Transformers: Dark of the Moon is the 5th highest earning movie of all time, I don't think anyone has to worry about it clearing up at the oscars.

    4GB mem card is around £10-12 these days. Vita is also floating around the £180 mark. Game prices are pretty much the same for both consoles. Considering the resolution for the 3DS is already quite low, I just don't see how this will make any of the games look better. If anything it will just highlight the jaggies more. It's also priced poorly. If I didn't already own a Vita and I was weighing up my options right now, I'd still a choose a Vita. Pretty much the same price and IMO better games.

    Good deal 8). I understand Nintendo's logic behind not including an AC adaptor; I can't see there being many people with pre DS lite consoles or new customers looking to buy the 3DS XL, still a little bit cheeky though.
    I won't be upgrading myself though, I can only just about fit my 3DS in a pocket and I'd rather save up for the wii u.

    This article at Kotaku claims the 3DS XL will launch with an AC adapter in North America. Since no EU details have been annouced yet, I assume that we'll be seeing the same thing as the US.


    Nintendo EU have confirmed no Power Adapter for Europe

    Interestingly, the European presentation noted that no AC adapter will be included with the updated hardware and will have to be purchased seperately, although you can use your existing adapters

    Nope. The EU will not be getting an adapter, along with Japan.

    The US only get an adapter due to a special request afaik.


    only US gets shipped with charger and they got their shipped with a 4gb card for U.S. price is $200, which is just over £128.50.
