Have some additional consoles that you’re planning to eventually get rid of? Well you’ll be interested to know that GameStop is having a 50% console trade-in bonus week. If you’re considering trading in a Wii U then you can get $232 and if you want to get rid of your Nintendo 3DS XL and get the New Nintendo 3DS then you will get $101.50. It’s best to go to your local GameStop and check all the deals.
Thanks, Maximus
What about the DS Lite?
why would you want to trade in a wii U
Financial diffculties? That’s the only thing that I can think of…
I’d rather sell it and get actual cash.
For people who bored of that console already or people who regret buying it. I remember people brought the console for competition in Mario Kart 8, since the game is broken, even now sadly. Some of us paid the paywall just to play Monster Hunter with our own friends.
If only Nintendo, just go to third party already.
I couldn’t disagree with you more.
What are you even talking about, you make no sense.
You believe everyone will enjoy Wii U? How naive, ‘fanboyism’ is stupid and wasteful.
What I get for ps4
The game is not even broken. Destiny is broken, CoD is broken, even that fucking overhyped Watchdogs is broken.
Mario Kart 8’s not broken, and Nintendo’s not going third-party, dumb hater.
I had to trade in my Wii u ps4 vita and ps3 back in September. I didn’t have much of a choice seeing as my new job would take a month to pay, and my last job already paid me but I spent a good bit helping out my sister.
So I had to sell my consoles to pay my bills. About to buy a Wii u again for xenobkade though.
It would be unwise to buy the console again, if you hardly have a time to play.
I do have the time now. I only work about 5 hours a day for $18 an hour.
Only 5 hours a day? $18 per hour? You have the best job ever.
Well that’s just what I make now. I’m expecting a promotion in a couple years maybe 3 or 4. I’ll be working a bit longer, about 6 or 7 hours but it’s $22.35 an hour or something like that.
In case you’re wondering I worm for a company that creates parts for cars and I design parts and redesign oldd parts via computer (known as CAD software).
Ah, I see. That sounds pretty neat. Although, I could imagine that your job probably isn’t that easy by how much pay they’re giving you. Must be tough work.
Bullshit. He’s on a budget. WiiU is cheaper AND has the games he wants to play.
As soon as you said, “Nintendo go 3rd party” you exposed what kind of gaming band-wagon, ignorant fanboy you are. Nintendo isn’t going 3Rd party anytime soon. Anyone who thinks so is part of an elite group known as “I’m going to try to look cool by saying something ignorant as fuck.”
How much for a Vita slim?
I’ll like to know this as well. (Trying to sell a vita slim)
It’s not even worth shit anyway. lol
What about Wii?
I think at this point YOU have to pay GameStop so they can take in your Wii.
What the hell kind of shit is that.
It’s an infidel, destroy it…
Destroy it with your robo tits.
You wanted to terminate some throats, there is your chance…
Your robo tits would do More damage
He’s not with it, he couldn’t terminate himself from a fast food restaraunt even if he dipped his penis in the coffee pots.
Oh dear…
It means they have so many Wii’s in stock that they’re paying peanuts for them. I saw a lady get offered $15 for her Wii. -_-
If it’s a Wii that plays gamecube games, then it’s worth at least $40 to people like me. If it is a stripped down wii with no GC ability, it’s worthless.
Lmao.
very odd gavatar you have HollowGrapeJ
Lol.
If gamestop is willing to pay you 230 dollars for your Wii U, thats proves that the Wii U is still a healthy console. Thats good to know at least..
its normally 140$, that’s not even half, and its only for this week…
How much will they give me for a 250GB Xbox 360 Slim?
That’s a pretty great trade in deal for the Wii U. O.o It’s tempting. Idk. Maybe I should keep my Wii U for Zelda…
Go play skyrim, then that outdated IP. The latest Zelda id likely to flop, just like Skyward.
Skyward Sword was probably the farthest thing from a flop. Just because you don’t like motion controls doesn’t mean a game is automatically bad.
the game did suck though x-x
I actually enjoyed Zelda and thought the motion controls were brilliant. To each their own opinion
No it didn’t. It was one of the best Zelda games I have ever played..
I guess you haven’t played that many Zelda games then.
The controls were not even the problem since it did improve over Twilight Princess. The problem was the reception from gamers and that stupid ass “holding your hand” tutorial trip the whole game took players through which is far more annoying than Navi saying “Hey!” to you all week without stopping.
Don’t make false assumption outer of me, you blood sucking fanboy. Think carefully why I called you a blood sucking fanboy.
Well I already have played skyrim but if sell my Wii u how am I supposed to play Zelda afterwards then?
Buy gpu for computer. IMO, I rather wait for emulation, rent the zelda, and buy it, if the game is fun to you.
Actually, I think I might just do it. I haven’t really been playing my Wii U and I’m really bored with Smash Bros and Mario Kart 8 now. I think maybe I should go for that $350 Xbox One. Or PS4 if they have any deals too. Maybe I’ll just wait another year or two and buy the Wii U again if there’s enough that interests me.
You just talk to talk right…
I knew you’re tempted to trade it in. lol So much for not selling it or hate it. lol
This is a really tough choice here though. If I trade in my Wii U with all my games, I’ll have to somehow save up the other $100+ for a PS4. But… If I trade in both my Wii U and 3DS with all my games, I’ll have more than enough. O_o Trying to see if it’s really worth it. Give up all my Nintendo games for a PS4? Hm…
i sold my Wii U but I will never sell my 3DSes. A lot of good 3DS games out for it plus so many great DS games. Stupid part is that my 3DS is connected to my old Wii U via NNID. i left my Mii on the Wii U with a password so they can’t use my eshop money but still can play my purchased games. At the time I didn’t know that if they find a way to delete my NNID then I will lose all of my 3DS digital content which I paid about $300-$400 for plus all the ambassador games. The people who bought the Wii U know though that if they delete my Mii then they will lose all the Wii U downloads which are over 40 titles. And I hope they have no way to delete my NNID or I will be screwed. I thought that Nintendo’s DLC is all tied to the hardware. I hate their “account system” and avoid digital purchases from now on. I was stupid not researching it beforehand. Now to avoid losing my dlc games my loaded 3DS has wifi off permanently, and i use a different 3DS for gaming and for going online. It is a pain.
Yeah, that’s the bad thing about downloading games on Nintendo platforms… I actually already traded in my 3DS and while it did have some downloaded retail games on it, there were only like 3. So I wasn’t really losing much anyways. I feel sorry for you though, man. That’s a ton of money to lose out on. That just isn’t fair. Yeah, you should have researched before you bought all those games, but it’s not all your fault. Nintendo should’ve had a universal account system already. :/
Maybe they will implement it when they are starting their new reward system after Club Nintendo is ended. Maybe the reward system ties in with a universal account system.
This is great news, I’m trying to sell my PS3 to get a PS4 and this gives me enough money to do so and get a game to go with it!
Now if only I had the money to sell my 3DS XL and buy the “new” 3DS alongside the PS4…
I can picture masses of people trading in their Wii U, flooding in their stores. Gamestop is going to regret that decision. Then again, I’m not sure how small of people own Wii U.
Nintendo onsoles tend to have high attach rate even more so then sony or mirco. Even the games have a high attach rate kinda explain why GS charges near retail price for a pre-own Nintendo title(some times more).
Wait, wait, you can live in fantasy all you like. But, don’t put Nintendo next to competition of gaming consoles and software. Because Wii U is irrelevant and doesn’t desire to seek potential consumers. Only fanboys and their poor friends keep the console from dying too early.
There have been data proving this even gamestop has said this I belive at one point there
Perhaps, but not high enough to known. Might be sounds alot to you, but it’s still very few to competition.
that because it is high. Not taking sales ATTACH RATE meaning people who don’t sell off their games or hardware out all the 3 nintendo tends to have the highest, the wii u sales are not great, but i could care less sine I,m having fun with what I have…Plus steam
Collectors like myself NEVER gets rid of games or consoles. I just add more and more. But I appreciate those who DO get rid of them. Because it gives me more to buy. I bought 9 Wii games at Gamestop the other day for super low prices.
If this kind of deals are available in my country even for a day, I would have traded my PS Vita and PS4 for the N3DS and upgrade to a Wii U Deluxe. My Vita has been on drought for almost a year now and the PS4 has fewer games I like.
Wait, I thought you could trade your 3DS XL for 100 dollars toward the N3DS XL. Does that mean my old 3DS would only be 50 dollars trade in?
I thought that deal ended the same day that the N3DS came out?
Ya, it was a pre-order deal only.
I wouldn’t trade my Windwaker Edition.. Not even if I were to get back the full amount invested. If needed I would rather say goodbye to either PS or XB.
This little console is still my favourite this generation and with games like Xenoblade Chronicles X, Zelda and an inevitable future Metroid on their way it has a chance of keeping that position for way longer.
Not even for a special limited edition Zelda U console bundle?
Is this only for the US? I’ve been thinking of trading in my Xbox 360 Slim 250GB for a while, but I’m living in Ireland, so I’m not sure if I’d actually be able to get the 50% bonus.
I just might trade in my Wii U for a PlayStation4. I can’t remember the last time I turned my Wii U on. I really wanna play Mortal Kombat X and all the fighting games and many others that won’t be coming to Wii U. At this point there are more games coming to PS4 than games I want to play for Wii U.
I would wait till june, PS4 still doesn’t have muh of big big titles yet. Witcher, batman, mkx et will all be around to play. Plus you could have money saved by then. Your hoie really
*choice
But also remember E3
50% eh? If only I owned a previous console other than the Wii. Though if I did that I wouldn’t be able to play GC games on it, now why would I give that purpose away?
Would love all the Hitman games on the Wii U. Including the original that was pc only :-P got them all on steam for ten euro including dlc on Humble bundle. Bargain!!
Can anyone help me ? OK so I have the flame red 3ds that comes with Mario 3d land and apparently its only worth $99 but the regular flame red cost $250. So I would only get $50 for it ? Shouldn’t I get more for the bundle ?
I went to two gamestop stores and they dont have this promo? any flyer/ad I can show them?
What is the trade in price for the Xbox 360. It is 500gb.
