Goddammit, if this turns out to be the real release date, I apologise to all of you for being wrong. D:

Don't apologise for being wrong, apologise for being an *** about being right.

[natie]

Be an *** in what way? I just rubbed the fact that I won (although in the end I didn't D:) in your face.

You've answered your own question:

Hence I put the :rolleyes: smiley.

Aaand more news, this time on price. If it hold true it's nothing we didn't expect, really.

The lowest I can see it being at launch is $180. $200 seems about right, all things considered.

Expected, but still disappointing. What happen to the good old days when consoles wouldn't cost you more than a hundred bucks?

Were they ever here at all? What console launched for under $100?

That never happened, what consoles are you talking about? O_o

Never happened until years after their launch, anyway.

[R_N]

Shoot, none of the DSes have been under $100.

I think DS Phat was like $200, maybe a little lower.

[BCVM22]

Nintendo hasn't launched any hardware, period, at under $100 since the original Game Boy and Game Boy Color, which launched at $90 and $80 respectively.

[Meganium Ex]

Bah, whatever. All I know is I bought a GameCube and a PS2 for a 100 dollars. Wasn't at launch but wasn't too much time after. I got a good deal on the DS too, so maybe that's why a handheld priced at $200 seemed off.

The SP launched at $99, and the DS launched at $150?

Yeah, I'm just going to assume that's a typo.

[Mr. Mudkip]

GBA was $100 when I got it. (Month of launch)

[BCVM22]

All I know is I bought a GameCube and a PS2 for a 100 dollars. Wasn't at launch but wasn't too much time after.

The 'Cube didn't drop to $100 until two years after launch - September 2003 - and the PS2 didn't get as low as $100 until only about a year ago.

Yeah, I'm just going to assume that's a typo.

It was. And is now fixed.

Then I don't know what the hell I'm smoking.

Must be breathing the fumes that arise from hot silicon. Computers will do that to you.

[TehLulzMastur]

Movies? From Disney, which could also mean Pixar? On a Nintendo handheld? In 3D?

I love you, Nintendo.

Also, I can't believe how they're bringing all these franchises to the 3DS: Metal Gear, Kid Icarus, Contra, etc.

One more thing...

PLEASE NINTENDO!! MAKE THIS A GAME!!

Aww, I really wanted the Gold one.
Oh well, I think I'll go with either blue or red. Or both. My DS that I got launch day came broke, and I definately don't want the 3DS to do the same.

That was a listing from a Dutch sight. Colours may vary based on region.

[R_N]

Likewise, those are probably the only stock photos they have of the thing. The final design, while probably similar, will most likely differ in some areas.

Like not having the top part of the inside of the lid be black on all color schemes
