US retail emporium Target is now selling the Nintendo 3DS for a mere $169 for three days only. If you do decide to purchase either the Metallic Red, Aqua Blue or Cosmo Black version you can also claim a free $50 gift card. Now you have no reason not to purchase a Nintendo 3DS.
Omg, all these 3DS deals and then thinking: Was it really a good idea to pick the system up at launch with the €250,- price tag? No is my anwser.
haha same here, bought the thing for $250 and might have gotten the ambassador stuff, but missed the system I really wanted.
I definitely do not regret getting my system at launch. Good deals are going to come whether you buy it early or not. I got a Xbox 360 4 years after it was a released, and it was right before the Xbox 360 “S” came out.
So deals will still come, even if you get a system late.
tempting but i already have a aqua….
Well looks like i picked up one anyways >.<. My girlfriend wanted one so we rushed to Target only to find they didn't have any of the color aqua that she wanted. So I told her get a flame red and i'll transfer all my stuff to it and she can have my aqua :3. Used the $50 gift card and got her a copy of Mario Kart 7 as well :D.
Col!
isn’t the normal price 169$ right now?
I thought the same thing. I think it’s because sickr is from Europe and forgot the US price.
No, it’s because of the way too über-generous gift card that comes with it for free.
BUT, it comes with a gift card.
Of course I do, my girlfriend wants a pink one…
Hey not bad, but I live in Canada so ill miss out on that. Bestbuy in Canada was selling them at that price and you got $40 gift card with it too. The sale ends this week though.
I have high hopes on boxingday in Canada for amazing deals on the 3DS! ToysRus was selling them for $129 a few weeks ago.
And that Aqua blue is so misleading! every time I see a picture of it I think of a nice blue but no its a ugly greenish colour in real life >_<
What are you talking about?
It’s still the most beautiful color available. By far.
Well not in my opinion, If they made a blue it should be the blue of the original DS. Now thats the most beautiful colour out there for a DS! But im still gonna get me my black and gold Zelda 3DS
“Now you have no reason not to purchase a Nintendo 3DS.”
Actually, I do.
…I already own one! xD
Therefore you purchased one, idiot.
It was a joke. Sheesh, lighten up.
Damn, you are retarded…
I knew it was.
I rest my case.
If I had the cash to spare I’d buy one, keep the $50 giftcard and sale it new on ebay.
Great deal for those who do not have the 3DS, yet. :)
Nah I’m still waiting for that second model.

But seriously…
Yeah I’m for serious. I held off on buying the 3ds at launch on purpose because revisions have happened with every single Nintendo handheld (Except Virtual Boy if you can even call that a handheld).
Wow..getting cheaper and cheaper. No excuses for those that need one now. Get it while it’s hot!
I already have a black cosmo one and I dont regret about it but I didnt know there were cards in order to buy in the eshop?? can I get those in amazon… or where?
NEW 3DS FOR THE RIDICULOUSLY LOW PRICE OF THE SAME THING IT WAS YESTERDAY?
But not for the pink 3ds bundle????
LOL. Who cares. $50 GIFT CARD FTW! But $169?! Seriously, I thought the 3DS price was $169 since the price drop back in August.
I just got a red 3DS yesterday it best buy and they gave me a 50 dollar gift card as well! And all games 30 dollars and up are buy two get one free! so i got 290 bucks worth of stuff for only two hundred! :D
Yeah what doesn’t make sense it that they used the word “mere”, as if this price is any different than the current retail price. It’s been a “mere” $169 since the big price drop in August.
