    In the UK, it's £149.99/€196.68 and £179.99/€236.01

    For £194.99/€255.64, I'm very tempted by this:

    The MMXL is ugly as inside. The N3DS has those beautiful famicon buttons! Then there's these lovely plates coming up in the future...

    Cracked and bought a N3DS today, only €165 on VGP, will be cheaper in the long run to buy games from them as well.

    Okay, so I pre-ordered this one http://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B00S84TTWU?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

    Cause MH4 is pre-installed will I lose out with a system transfer?

    Oh god it's lovely.

    If you do a system transfer atm it is an export of your games and nnid to the new console rather than a rewrite so if that is the case with the new xl then you will be moving your id and credit to the new console not replacing MH4.

    No after the transfer you click on the setting and click on the downloadable games and it will be their.

    That's the price Nintendo indicated the console would be in the Ambassador edition price breakdown.

    Nope, never had an issue with them in about 4 years of constant purchasing, have gotten people Vitas before and all they put on the package is that its a novelty toy or cheap DVDs worth about 20 Dollars.

    I was in GameStop today and they said they were getting the Limited Edition Majoras Mask console so I preordered. 25% extra on trade ins also so it should pay for itself.

    How does it work, buying a foreign console?

    The N3DS will be region locked, but new games off VGP will only cost between 24 and 30 Euro, plus it can take games a good couple of months to come out in the EU compared to the US, like SMT IV, otherwise it is just the same, Nintendo will probably not honour the warranty, but it is not like buying a PS4 or XB1.

    Ok guys, anyone on here preordered a n3ds or n3dsxl in a B&M shop in Dublin yet? What prices are we looking at?

    I have preordered the n3ds white with the Zelda MM special edition with figure, but it comes to a total of €250. Thank God the money isn't taken out until a day or two before it ships.

    So I have that as a back order. But not sure if I'm arsed with the SE MM tbh. Maybe I'll just get the game and n3ds in Dublin on the 13th. But from what I'm reading (gamestop), stock is not 100% guaranteed yet.

    Anyone any advice? I do have a 40quid voucher for gamestop.

    Here's a Reddit link which describes pretty much what you have to do to do a System Transfer

    There's nothing worse when you have your new system in your hands that you really want to play but you know you can't because you have to do the System Transfer!

    Thats Xl, just the console, not the majoras mask one. The majoras mask one is like 280 or something.

    Cool, I guess I'll hold onto my Nintendo pre-order for the time being.

    Looks like New 3DS preorders have been yanked from both Amazon.es and .it
    Simply says "unavailable" now instead of a price :(

    Ok, so I preordered a white n3ds in gamestop. €200, but had a 40 voucher so technically I'm paying €160. Happy with that.

    The xl is 240, very expensive for an upgrade. And the Majora's Mask n3dsxl is €280 WITHOUT the game(?) as I asked. Total rip if true.

    So cancelled my Nintendo store pre-order, but at least I get the system on Launch day.
