3DS RELEASE DATE AND PRICE

[Hiro]

I really hope the 3DS doesn't cost more than the Wii. It just seems like a seriously bad idea. Remember the backlash over the price of the PSPgo ($250)? No way it will be in the 200s. DSI XL is only $170, with the Wii at $200 even.

Probably will release in Japan This holiday season, around December or late November.
NA, probably early/late spring, around May. I do not think it'll be a Summer release. Nor will they wait until Winter/Fall to release in the US.

The DSi XL is also a lot cheaper to make. I do agree about the backlash though, I'm sure Nintendo saw what happened with the PSPgo. Also, both the DS and Wii came out in the US before they did in Japan, so I don't see why we can't get it around November if Japan does too. It could be out in spring though.

PSPGo was a remodel of a PSP

charging more for a remodel than the original system did at launch was dumb and it's obvious why that caused backlash.


you even just said that the 3ds isn't a remodel so it's not the same issue
