Old style 3DS XL with free Animal Crossing: New Leaf (3DS) (save £25) and £10 off code for sales over £75.00. CEX pay £11.00 for Animal Crossing.

Final price when applying discount and adding £3.00 delivery £82.00, then added £2.50 club points total £79.50. Going to sell the game to CEX so the grand total for me is £68.50. Just remember I had £2.50 in vouchers on my account, so this package would have been £71.00 after selling the game to CEX.

Code: TDX-KTRP

Been looking at this guide. Will wait while the weekend before I have time to try.

CFW Guide

Got around to installing the CFW today. Fairly straight forward, just read through the steps carefully.

Custom firmware looks like it would be the cheaper of the 3 lol If anyones got any guides please be a hero and share.

Please do tell...

CFW running great. Already got a 64GB SD card loaded up with games :smiley:

Hello, I was going to buy a 3ds xl with the intention of getting pokemon aplha ruby, black and white (1+2) and platinum.
Is it possible to get roms for them and to load them up onto the 3ds xl? If so where would I begin do I need a r4i card of sorts?

Insomniac_24_7 to pyrotekki

30 Aug 16 #99

What guide did you follow?

coventgamer to pyrotekki

Need some help installing cfw

Insomniac_24_7

30 Aug 16 #100

You either need a flashcart, Gateway or Sky3DS+, or install custom firmware.

rimz790

29 Aug 16 #96

Just picked up my order. The 3ds came in a grey sealed bag and the game came in a separate cardboard sealed envelope...

pyrotekki

29 Aug 16 #95

Yes for CFW & Homebrew.

pyrotekki

28 Aug 16 1 #90

Firmware is 4.2E :smiley:

what3v3r to pyrotekki

Yep so is mine :wink:

rimz790 to pyrotekki

28 Aug 16 #94

Is that a good firmware for a 3DS to be on? :smirk:

treb

27 Aug 16 #89

No i didnt add the game :disappointed:

bargonking to treb

28 Aug 16 #93

I made the same mistake. Ring tesco on 08003234050, choose option 3, hold until you are connected and explain you ordered a 3ds xl which was supposed to come with a free game but didn't. Ask why you didn't get the game (give them the catalogue reference of 238-5389). They will then refund you the cost of the game (at 25 pounds). Just did this myself!

Munkee

28 Aug 16 #92

Don't have a clue what to do regarding custom firmware and CIA's . Gonna have to study up on gbatemp over the next few days

treb

27 Aug 16 #87

Just opened my package, just the console with no game? Or is it in the box? surely not, will open it later whne i get home.

pyrotekki to treb

27 Aug 16 #88

Did you add the game to your basket when ordering?

Mine came in 2 separate packages.

Munkee

27 Aug 16 #86

Didnt know you had to purchase a charger . ( have 3 in the house already )

Is this not a silly strategy ? is it for enthusiasts or upgraders basically ?

bigair2002

26 Aug 16 #85

I collected mine this afternoon, haven't opened it yet though, figured it's not worth it until I go and get a charger!!!

pyrotekki

26 Aug 16 #84

Anyone got there's yet?

Curious to know what version firmware it comes with.

Insomniac_24_7

26 Aug 16 #83

Got the despatch email for the game, not for the console yet.

rimz790

26 Aug 16 #82

Got both the dispatch emails! To be picked up from today!

My usual branch has been asking why I haven't been doing my usual click and collects for quite some time, so I said there hasn't been any good deals that have take my fancy, plus the £2 extra charge is a little off putting :laughing:

what3v3r

26 Aug 16 1 #81

Same here, will collect after work.

cherylpeattie

26 Aug 16 1 #79

I got my 2nd email about the console at 6:30am saying it's been dispatched. It says it'll be ready to collect today.

fuzzle3 to cherylpeattie

26 Aug 16 1 #80

Yep same, both have been dispatched and await collection today.

Insomniac_24_7

Mine is Partially Confirmed. It says still processing with standard delivery expected by 1st Sept.

25 Aug 16 #78

Highly likely it'll be there tomorrow. My launch day PS4 still says that!

the game is dispatched but not the console

Thank you

Yeah that's what mine says.

25 Aug 16 #71

Anyones dispatched yet?

The game is ready to dispatch but the 3DS is just sitting at confirmed.

25 Aug 16 #70

Managed to grab one earlier for £75 after using £4 cc vouchers and used click and collect...needed the game for my daughter's birthday in a couple months.

The game would have cost around £20-25 brand new...so £50-55 for brand new 3ds xl is definitely a bargain!

Sorry, we don't have enough Nintendo 3DS XL Black/Silver items in stock right now. This item (s) has been added to your save for later basket. You can try to purchase this item again by reducing its quantity.

shug05

25 Aug 16 #42

I was in Game yesterday and they said it has a faster processor and 3 extra buttons, and this is meant to justifies it being £100 extra.

buliztik to shug05

25 Aug 16 1 #55

That sounds exactly what a GAME employee would say.

smoose89

25 Aug 16 #13

is it worth £150 just for the new version though or this at £80

kay1992 to smoose89

25 Aug 16 #54

New one is definitely not worth it at £150 unless you are a die hard Nintendo fan who 'must have' it. This deal is definitely worth it.

Munkee

25 Aug 16 #53

yeah oos now unfortunatly . Silly procrastinating self

Thanks OP been on the lookout for a while, nearly bit with the Argos deal but this is much better

coventgamer

25 Aug 16 #36

what delivery service do tesco use ? hopefully not yodel

g8spur to coventgamer

25 Aug 16 #39

Bad news for you.

captainbeaky to coventgamer

25 Aug 16 #49

They use a mixture of couriers - it depends on the size, value & delivery time of your order. It's usually Royal Mail for low value items & Yodel (yes Yodel) or MyHermes for the rest. They always seem to use Yodel for stuff sent to a store for collection.

Wilsh88

25 Aug 16 #48

Yeah that will be rather expensive...

Maaly

25 Aug 16 #47

Cheers Op - got one - the game should go for £20 plus so 3ds xl for under £60 is a bargain

yarkiebrown

25 Aug 16 #46

anyone want to buy a brand new 3ds xl for £78 :stuck_out_tongue:

cherylpeattie

25 Aug 16 #4

Can someone please tell me the difference between this and the new version on the 3ds XL? Thanks xx xx

CBK to cherylpeattie

25 Aug 16 #5

For the vast majority of people, hardly any, it has one exclusive game and a C-Stick which helps slightly on Zelda etc.

jco83 to cherylpeattie

25 Aug 16 #11

Improved 3D effect (it has eye-tracking)
Extra controls (second thumb 'nub' for camera control in some games and 2 more shoulder buttons but I don't think many games make use of them)
Runs some games more smoothly
Built-in NFC for Amiibo support

Just Xenoblade and also the SNES virtual console games

Wakinglimb to cherylpeattie

25 Aug 16 #45

The 3d is more stable too, far more comfortable to view for longer. It's also faster, and better built. Not huge differences, but different.

adrianmg

25 Aug 16 #44

Just been quoted £77.50 by Nintendo's support centre to fix a 3DS XL broken hinge. Struggling to find a quote under around £70 after postage. Suspect this is a much better idea.

what3v3r

25 Aug 16 #43

Has anyone noticed the write-up, I don't think it is for this model, so can we complain and say we expected the "new" 3dsxl.

•Expanded control options "new 3dsxl"
• Enhanced features and processing power "new 3dsxl"
• NFC function for amiibo compatible software "new 3dsxl"

Wilsh88

25 Aug 16 1 #32

So after seeing argos deal, reserving one, then convincing myself i didnt need it, didnt collect reservation....
Ive now bought this... thanks OP... :confused:

smoose89 to Wilsh88

25 Aug 16 #41

ye i ended up reserving 2 as i then found you could get yokai free and maybe got a speeding ticket yesterday for going to extend the reserve of the game. gonna be an expensive ds for me.

dan5

25 Aug 16 #40

Best price ever for a 3DS XL - absolute bargain. Already have two, so not for me, but thoroughly recommended.

25 Aug 16 #35

showing up as £89 what code you using to bring down to £79?

Also trial delivery saver for a month for free delivery!

CBK

25 Aug 16 #34

I think it comes down to a case of do you want to pay nearly an £80 premium (after sale) for improved 3D? I have never used the 3D so no need for me.

what3v3r

25 Aug 16 #33

I've just gone and bought one as well, didn't need one, but at that price you might as well, hadn't you? :wink:
And I only paid £77.50 as I had a £1.50 in vouchers :smiley:

£12?

LordEvilElmo

25 Aug 16 1 #18

For clarity, the New 3DS is much quicker in responding, loading etc. and the 3D is actually worthwhile using, rather than a novelty that you will turn off after a while. The 3D tracks your head, so you don't need to be perfectly positioned and it will move to ensure that you will see the 3D.

I am way happier with the New 3DS XL than the old one, but if you don't care about the 3D get the original as they play the same games, bar about 3!

DannGo

25 Aug 16 #16

Nice deal.

Kristcobain

25 Aug 16 #9

Zelda: Majora's Mask and Xenoblade Chronicles. The new one has better 3d tracking too and allegedly runs games a bit smoother

CBK to Kristcobain

25 Aug 16 #14

Zelda: Majora's Mask works perfectly on old style consoles. Xenoblade is the only retail game that does not. It is unlikely they will make any more games "exclusive" as it kills the market for most.

MMeldrum to Kristcobain

25 Aug 16 1 #15

Majora's Mask isn't exclusive to the N3DS, but Xenoblade Chronicles is. SNES VC games are too.
