I hate that I didnt wait a couple months for 3DS XL to hit $159 or $41 bucks cheaper :-( I just picked my daughter up a pink 3DSXL for Christmas this week. Too bad I couldnt save $ like that on my red one :-( At least I wont have to share it now :-)

This sale also includes the MK7 bundle as well. So that is an incredible deal.

Holy crap! I should go sell my original at gamestop and then go find a best buy.
Oh but does anyone know, when you go to exchange 3DS to get a newer version, do they transfer the memory for you?

Nope you have to buy the 3DSXL first than transfer your stuff than sell the old 3DS.

FINALLY....I Just ordered a Blue 3DS XL from Best Buy, which was on sale for $159(Sale ends Jan 31st), where i then saved another $50 by using a couple of my shnazzy Christmas BestBuy gift cards. :p I can't wait to experience Virtual Console GameBoy Games in 1:1 mode on these larger screens. It was dissapointing having to put up with the upscaled blurrier 'default' image that fit the screen(Although you eventually adjust until you see how much better 1:1 mode looks.lol) and the tiny 1:1 wrist watch-like size(yet super sharp) 1:1 mode for VC gameboy games on the regular 3DS.

It's also going to be pretty nice not having to put up with that annoying retractible stylus, akward stylus placement and sharp top corner ridges of the original 3DS that made gaming a wee' bit uncomfortable with longer gaming sessions. If anything, i'm curious to see how much weaker the brightness is and if the top screen is warmer color temp wise which I've heard are the only 2 real complaints. PilotWings Resort & RE: Revelations are going to be the first 2 I fire up as soon as it arrives. B-) The bigger screens are deinitly going to make for a grander, more immersive, fun and exciting experience!

The best deal they ever offer was $149.99 last Boxing day. The MK7 was also included($149.99) but the stocks were so limited(or they didn't restock I guees). I was luckily able to hold the last stock of mk7 bundle for only $149.99 which was incredible.

Whooa Wavester you are going to be in VC game heaven with that thing. Its must have have been hard for you to part with that aqua blue 3DS and I am talking bout Uncle Jessie parting from special hair care products hard man. Still you are going to totally enjoy the bigger screens I know I did when I made the switch.
