Yeah it's definitely not mate. It's just the usage of the word 'new' for when this was released :smiley:

Classic Nintendo.. I suppose everything is limitied edition technically unless they plan to make them forever. Just getting pedantic now though!

I'm not trying to pick a fight :smiley: Obviously this is the cheapest price for it, it just still seems alot of money for it to me that's all :smile: (o3ds xl is 5 years old now)
Also - For the third time! - what is 'limited edition' about this????? :laughing:

Anyone know what firmware this ships with? I want to put some custom firmware on it if I get one.
MMeldrum to billyboy1912

The Luigi bundle was released in November 2013 and the 7.x firmware only came out in December 2013.
Not sure how long they'll have manufactured these for, but I'd imagine the installed firmware is pretty old.

No I'm simply asking where it's cheaper as your post implies it's not a 'hot deal'. The very essence of the site is posting items at their cheapest, thus a 'deal'. Regardless of your own perception if it is or not is irrelevent.
Let's just agree to disagree though, too many posts descend into endless bickering.e

Ah you must have a cheaper deal then, can we see it please?
brilly to jco83
10 Mar 161#58
does it? must be difficult to have such limited thought processes
prices go up
prices go down
this is on the bottom of the scale
is it this price elsewhere?
its a popular item
price will probably go up again
HEAT ADDED

I'm not knocking your post, I was just surprised at the amount of heat
O3DS XL with game for 100 is pretty standard now :smiley:
Also - how is this 'limited edition' ?

10 Mar 16#56
I dont get why this deal is getting grief?
When compared to the 2ds with a game which is £79 unless there is some goose chase tesco deal about, or the £89 3ds on its own at tesco
Surely this is Hot!

10 Mar 161#55
Don't let it get to you. I see an item I feel is a deal (for whatever reasons) and I post it to share with the community. After which it's in their hands.
This items pricing has obviously got your back up. The perception of ones thoughts on a deal differs person to person, as I'm sure you're more than aware of recently :smiley:

I already own Luigi mansion 2 but want to buy the 3DS XL - any suggestions??
jco83
10 Mar 16#53
By that logic your saying any product at its currently cheapest available price is a hot deal
If people didn't go so crazy for apparent 'deals' like this, prices would go lower

The Nintendo 3DS contains two separate screens. The top screen is a 15:9 (5:3) autostereoscopic LCD screen with a display resolution of 800×240 pixels (400×240 pixels per eye, WQVGA).
If a phone had this screen resolution everyone would be saying what a load of carp!

I hit 'Like' on this comment by mistake. You're really missing the point of this device.
The vast majority of games available on mobile phones and tablets are poor quality and usually cash grabs through in-app purchases.
You cannot compare that to the quality of first party Nintendo titles.

Lovely console. Perfect for using moist towelettes to clean the screen.

Don't really get the cumbersome comments frequently posted by those who don't use a 3DS XL. It is not cumbersome in the slightest. It is very comfortable and nicer for the eyes than a tiny 3DS screen. Should trying holding a Wii U screen gamepad.

Still people and I use the term people because I don't want to get banned again asking whether its the new model. 5 secs of searching is all it takes. Less time than it takes you type a comment.

Cracking price considering this game is £30+ everywhere. Its a really enjoyable game too.

They are my favorite games retailer. I have never had a single problem with any of my orders. You get points which can be used to reduce the price of your next order too.

Thanks. Do the extra shoulder buttons affect gameplay? I'm not too fussed about faster cpu, if the screen was a higher resolution then I'd get the new version

I'm confused. Is there a newer 3ds xl that has the word "new" in its title referring to better technology?
free download and then 100£ worth of in app purchases iv yet to find a fully free apple game thats worth playing

I got my daughter the genuine new 3DS XL and was very impressed.
To say any title on Android or iOS is of same quality is just ridiculous.
Good tho some may be the can and will cost an absolute fortune over time.
Defo recommend for the youngsters 100%

That's a joke, right? Android and/or iOS games are very good - some of them, but comparing them to Nintendo's games via handheld devices...

One is called the App Store and the other is called Google Play. Hope that helps.

You're referring to the "New 3DS" line. The original 3DS and 3DS XL have none of that (regardless of size)

True, but in my experience the XL model is cumbersome and doesn't posses the SNES themed buttons and interchangeable faceplates AND the 'regular' size better designed (again, IMO) ergonomically.
otterboxer
9 Mar 161#13
As a bundle its ok. Basic grey xl and a digital copy of lm2. Which is usually £20 most places not sure £30 is the everyday price tbh.

Ohhh...lol I understand :smile:
pazuzu17
9 Mar 165#9
If I were others - and I could, I'd recommend keeping the money and saving up the £20(ish) extra to get myself a New 3DS, better hardware, more future-proof AND those interchangeable faceplates are boss...I'm currently sporting the wood effect one.
tech3475 to pazuzu17
9 Mar 161#11
That's the regular sized version, the XL version is close to double the price of this (if you count LM2 as £30).

The latest version of the 3DS XL is called "New Nintendo 3DS XL", this is described as new Nintendo 3DS XL.

They were a bit lazy with this one (and other bundled models). Could have had a print of Luigi's Mansion on the front, or backpack Luigi on the back, something, anything really. Not to shabby a deal though in current market.

Yep, couldn't agree more with the design. But...for the Year of Luigi, I thought this was so bad they needn't have bothered...
