Re: New Nintendo 3DS Release Date Confirmed for 13th February

Really the only thing that draws me to the New 3DS XL is the placement of the volume button. I already have 2 3DS XL's and been thinking about buying a third so I don't have to fight with the kids when I want to play. I think I am just gonna wait to see what deals come out for the old 3DS Xl's.

$200 plus no charger? that seems CRAZY. I have 5 chargers that will work with it, but it is still crazy that it does not come with one.

In comparison I just bought 2nd new PS3 500 GB for the basement on Amazon for $220.

It's the games, STUPID!

I do not play with the 3D on at all - neither do my kids.

I have 2 3DS XL's, and thinking about buying a 3rd. Because I have to fight with the kids when I want to play. I can get a refurbished 3DS XL from Nintendo for $135 - a lot cheaper than what the new 3DS is going to cost, so for me, no reason to wait for the new one.

I am 43, and I just started playing Pokemon Y, and it is the 1st Pokemon I have ever played. I have been a gamer since the beginning, but I have never gotten into games like Pokemon or Zelda. I have always been into side scrollers, racing and sports.

My 12 and and 10 yr old love Pokemon, so I thought I would give it a try. After Y I am going to start my first Zelda game, A Link Between Worlds.

Re: E3 2014: Amiibo Figures Will Have A Price Tag Comparable To Skylanders And Disney Infinity Toys

With Skylander's and Disney's Infinity - you really need to buy them all for just one game. I have hundreds and hundreds of dollars invested into them,

With these NFC figures you really just need one and will work on multiple games. I would have no problem paying $10 to $15 for them. At the moment, I will only be buying 3, one for me and one each for both of my kids.

My 11 year old son, 9 year old daughter and myself all LOVED IT! We are excited about the future of Nintendo. We have a Wii U and 2 3DS Xl's, and we can't stop talking about the games we are going to get for both.

We also have a Xbox 360 and PS3 and there was nothing presented by Microsoft or Sony that makes us even want a PS4 or Xbox One.

Knock it off with the insults and profanity — TBD

I have not been this excited about a game for a VERY LONG TIME! Honestly the only reason I bought a Wii U. Pre-Ordered from Amazon, just sitting here waiting not very patiently.

Re: Walmart Announces Foray Into Pre-Owned Games

Right now nothing is better than Amazon Warehouse Deals - It is were I buy almost all my games for the 3DS and Wii U. If you check regularly and are ready to buy when you see what you want, you can get anything you want. I have gotten recently Pokemon X and Y, two Animal Crossing New Leafs and 2 Mario Kart 7 from anywhere between $20 to $25 and all were in like new condition. I just got the Disney Infinity Starter Set for $21, the box was never even opened.

I doubt Wal-Mart will beat Amazon, but I will given them a shot. Gamestop sucks for used games and I don't even bother with them. At Wal-Mart I would have to pay sales tax, so their deals would have to be extra good.
