So The 3DS has been out for around 3 months in the west at the moment. It's now that I'm finally thinking of taking the fall and picking one of the li'l consoles up (and not only because of the price drops everywhere). This is mostly due to Ocarina Of Time 3D, the fifth re-release of one of the most famous games of all time. Now, I'm not a fan of the amount of times Nintendo has re-released this game, and the idea of a re-release being the main reason to own a console is slightly off putting, so I thought to myself. Why not see what else Is out there?
So, without further ado! Here is the first:
To start out with, let's look at the price of the console itself! Fellow British Internet explorers that hopefully don't use Internet Explorer can nab the 3DS today from Amazon.co.uk for the the cool, cool price of £179.99, nice! Amazon.com didn't offer the same courtesy however, with the asking price stuck at $248.99, saving you a whooping dollar! But that is also a dollar you could use to buy THIS TRACK from DjEphixia! Job done. It's certainly better than the Gamestop online price with 3DS' currently being sold for $249.99, full asking price? Fuck off! Sadly I'm less savvy on American retailers, so cheaper deals for your US region 3DS would be appreciated at the comments in the form of links! So here are Junes best 3DS console deals!
UK - £179.99 from Amazon.co.uk
US - $248.99 from Amazon.com
Now let us delve deeper into the 3DS scene, what are the games to own on the console right now? Where can you get them for the best price? Well, we should start out with the only game you should be clamoring for in the 3DS library right now: The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time 3D, which is ironic, because it's always been in 3D, but this time it's in 3D AND in 3D! Awesome?! Amazon.co.uk Is giving us the goods cheap once again with OOT3D costing you £29.97 instead of the £39.99 asking price, however it's pretty much this price everywhere right now, so... Go buy it anywhere! For the US fan base we once again have a small selection of highly priced product. Both Gamestop and Amazon offer you OOT for a glorious $39.99, Gamestop does offer a bonus $20 off other 3DS games on purchase however, so that'd be the way to go!
UK - £29.97 (ANYWHERE!)
US - $39.99 + $20 off another 3DS game (http://www.gamestop.com)
Now the only other game that appeals to me, and has come out relatively recently is Dead Or Alive: Dimensions. It's funny that every game on a Nintendo console must contain a pun or something that relates to the name, be it DS, 64 or "Wii"... Anyway on the UK front we get the short side of the stick as Amazon, this months reigning champions apparently offer the game for £28.99, with everywhere selling it for around £30 anyway, reductions ftw!!! The US amazon store wins also with the flabbergasting price of... $27.99!!! Good on the currency exchange front for UK gamers, an okay price for people paying with pure dollahs!
UK - £28.99 (http://www.amazon.co.uk)US - $27.99 (http://www.amazon.com)
Well, that covers Junes 3DSAMINATION! I'll be back next month to tell you the price of Resident evil: the mercenaries and maybe a sleeper hit? Hell, I might even OWN a 3DS by then!?? Only time will tell! Be sure to tune in next time!
