Topic: When will you get your 3DS?

I'll be getting it somewhere between March-May. Although I would like to get ssf4 too, I might just wait on that.

When I'm out of uni, in work, a remodel has been released, and Nintendo has lowered the price significantly.

So based on the last point alone, Doomsday.

I was planning on making this the second system I ever pre-ordered (the first being Dreamcast). But now I'm not sure what I want to do. I'm moving to Japan this summer to get married. The drastic change in lifestyle alone is sure to mean I'll have far less time for playing games, so I have to be extra careful to only buy games I think I'll get my money's worth for. That wouldn't be a problem considering most of my favorite games for DS are pick-up-and-play, but if something like a new Golden Sun comes out, I'll desperately want to play it but won't have the patience to deal with doing it in Japanese. Then again, the $250 I would spend on a 3DS doesn't seem so bad until I remember that I also need to save money for moving and/or for getting married. Crap, I think I just solved my own dilemma. Well... for what it's worth, I WANT to get a 3DS on day 1, but will probably end up letting responsibility win the battle. Damnit.

Day one purchase for me

Day one! I've already pre-ordered it.

If ocarina of time is a launch title DAY ONE

Its always wise to pre-order, sadly I have not gotten mine pre-ordered....Not even Pokemon B or W. My Ride doesn't want to pre-order this year...I might wait until theres a few weeks til' release.....I'm may have to trade before.

i am going to pre-order the 3ds the day before it comes out

then way i can reserve my copy, and not have to wait like 3 months for it to come out

I'll probably wait for the next version of 3DS to come out (with a supposedly increased battery-life), as I think that playing games like Ocarina of Time and Paper Mario for merely 3 hours with one charging is a sin.
Also, I still have many DS games that I haven't gotten my hands on.

Propably never. I haven't got money or enough interest for a handheld.

Launch day...I already pre-ordered them...so...yeah, this thing has been haunting my mind for a while now, lol

Launch, without a doubt in my mind. What sucks though is that they (where I live) will only sell the 3DS in a bundle For the low, low price of $349.99. It comes with two games but I dont even know the launch titles lol.

I might be getting in via Launch if my Tax Return comes back quick enough. But thats the only way i'm getting it. Gamestop told me i could trade my DSi for $50 to put down for preorder. Even if it was a refurbished one. I literally said Hell No.

Ideally I want it on launch, but at the moment money is an issue. Though I do have 60 days., if money is sorted before then then I shall pre order and get it at a midnight opening.

Should be getting mine on launch day (so long as it's delivered!), I've preordered an Aqua Blue one. I've tentaively preordered Kid Icarus and Pilotwings Resort to go with it too, no idea if either of those are definite PAL launch titles yet though

I hope to find it on day one, but I don't do preorders, so I may fail. My local area doesn't tend to sell out of this kind of thing, though, so I'm hopeful (Mario 25th anniversary & Metroid Prime Trilogy were plentiful on shelves here long after reports of shortage).

May I suggest switching ur avatar's DSi to a 3DS?

I'll probably get it when used versions of the handheld come down to the $200 mark. Of course, that could be a while...

thinking about i might get it at launch.i have $80 usually get $170 on my b-day(which is next month)and BOOM $250 bucks right there.
