Nintendo 3DS XL Silver with FREE Mario & Sonic at the Olympics OR Yo-Kai Watch and Adaptor for £99.99. Add Console (124858), Adaptor (149306 OR 107066) and Game (150647) to basket complete deal.
Seems to be quite a good deal considering the average price of 3DS XL's alone. Also, 2DS's sell for an average of £79.00 so for £21.00 you're getting a better 3DS alone with adapter and game.

The easiest way to distinguish them visually is the coloured ABXY buttons (Red, Yellow, Blue Green) and the extra analogue nub next to the top right hand corner of the lower screen.

Yes, tech wise I would agree....doesn't help if you want to play Mario Kart, Pokemon, Mario, Animal Crossing or any other Nintendo exclusive though.

Shown as out of stock (adaptor) for click and collect, however I phone and they had them in. Very helpful at Speke store, put one aside for me to collect the next day.

Picked this deal up earlier today at Barnsley Cortonwood. They were 1 more 3ds xl bundle on the shop floor.

picked the deal up from Castlepoint in Bournemouth said I couldn't click and collect because they only had one of each console and one of each charger left. Can call and have it put aside if collecting same day. Great deal thanks OP

Their website doesn't accurately reflect the stock of the stores so it's best to go instore and ask. I had the same adapter problem on the site for 3 of my local stores and they all had stock available.

Hi,
So the deal is not available anymore in the UK because of the lack of adapter... But I already have one and the deal is still pretty good even without the adapter. Do you know if it is possible to order the 3DS without the adapter? Or if the deal is available in store with both 3DS and the game in stock?

It allows for homebrew, Rom hacks etc, piracy is possible but it is frowned upon :man:

What can you actually do by using this? Get free games?

And for those curious - Plailect on github - That's an incredibly detailed guide on how to install CFW, The only issue I had was when it asked me to re-install the Homebrew app But didn't say i had to repeat the steps that i did in part 1, easily fixed by reading part 1 again.

Sky3DS or Gateway 3DS seem to be the recommended cards from what I've seen, Although I do remember reading a while ago that the card makers had brick code in their software to brick the 3ds if you are using a clone card
I personally went the CFW route & although it took a good 6 hours to do (albeit starting with a 6.x FW & having to upgrade to downgrade & a lot of the time is waiting for NAND Dumps) the benefits of doing so are a lot better.

Just reserved mine at my local store. Much better than the online deals which don't really work as the games are unavailable.

I got 2 of these deals at the Gateshead Team Valley store.
The deal wasn't available for click and collect (e.g. order online and have it delivered to the select store) but it was no problem at all to go in store and get the deal there and then.
Also the mobile version of the basket on Smyth's website doesn't have all the stock info so I'd recommend checking on a laptop or PC.

The extra game was at normal price £14. The black silver console comes with mario/sonic at Rio and the blue console has yokiwatch

Was the extra game priced £14 or is there an offer to add another game for £114 ?

Available in store, just purchased in Blackburn. Didn't know about the offer, just went in expecting to pay more. Saw the sticker on the box saying £99.99 and the lady behind the games counter told me about the free game and charger. Bought an extra game, total £114.

what a con website yesterday it said charger is not in stock now it is saying game is out of stock but charger is in stock. It is only available for northern island customers but it seems dodgy that they would purposely show 1 of the 3 items to not be available for home delivery or collect in store so they don't have to give the deal. They should just say deal only available for northern island customers instead of messing around with the stock so others can't get the deal and wasting everyone's time

just picked up 2 from Milton Keynes store. I called them up and the nice lady put 2 aside for me. I got the yo-kai watch deal. I then went to Game and PX game (price match cex) and got £23 per game . kids wanted Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire.
Cost total £114 inc Pokemon game and charger. Mind you i had £30 credit, so Pokemon coat me nothing

Try calling your local store, then should have the deal in stock, I just did call and going this evening to buy

Was interested in this deal until I saw this as well. Does anyone know what will happen with the game if they can't do home delivery for it? It looks like they are expecting it to be available for home delivery soon, so maybe they will ship it out separately. Can anyone confirm?

such a con! when i add all three items to the basket, the game isnt available for home delivery, so i choose click and collect. then the charger (either of them) arebt available for click and collect. cold

True. Still works out cheaper for those who don't wanna spend as much on a New 3DS though.

Its really not that bad, lol. You guys need to understand that people have different priories and needs. For example a mate of mine wanted to get in to Pokemon again because of Go and would basically only play Pokemon on his 3ds. I recommended he buy a 3DS XL to save him some money. What does he care about the 3d and second stick, which is only truly relevant on a handful of games?

Agreed, albeit I despise mario.
Still a crap console and they should make a decent version.
New to nintendo as I only bought a 3dsxl recently to play monster hunter, is there any good reason why the 3ds consoles have sub ps2 level graphics?

Just in case anyone is going to buy,(I have, thanks OP).
make sure if you want yo-kai you add the blue 3dsxl, as it only works with that one

I don't know much about nintendos so excuse me if it is a dumb question, how do you know it is old version? Actually after reading the comments, my actual question is this one or 2DS?
Joshuwo to kp001
22 Jul 162#4
The 2DS doesn't include 3D availability as well as having a smaller screen and no way to close the screen down. This deal includes the 3DS XL which has 3D compatibility, a bigger screen and ability to close the screen. There is also the New 3DS and New 3DS XL which cost more and have a few extra features but costs more than this.

the 2ds is ok for a child, the size of this makes it much better. unless you were getting the 2ds for the £50 price range I would pay the extra for this imo.
