Title: Who else is buying a pikachu 3ds xl?
Post by: Kabonk on March 14, 2013, 09:37:49 PM
Been waiting for a while to upgrade to a 3ds xl, and have been waiting for a special edition. Nintendo announced the Pikachu Edition is coming out in NA the 24th (thanks for the short notice).

According to CAG, Target will have these for only $159 the first week. I need to get some junk on ebay quick!

Kind of a bummer I have to wait to sell my current so I can transfer everything.

I'm good with my current 3DS. A new cover is not worth it to me.

I don't think shaggy is getting one.

Off topic
Are you 3DS owners excited for Luigis Mansion?
Commercials don't really show much gameplay they certainly made me want to play it.

I'm excited for it. Nintendo has made the rest of this year looking good from a 1st party standpoint. I can't wait.

I doubt we are going to upgrade our 3DS to an XL, but if we ever do the Pikachu model is number 1 on my list!

This may be the perfect time to buy one although I'm not really into handhelds anymore.

Hasn't this been out for ages yet? I'm sure I've seen those in stores...

In Europe and Japan.  It will be a new release for North America.

I'd really love to, but I don't think I want to drop $160 on another 3DS XL...even though the Pikanipples tempt me.

WooHoo. Got mine today!

I headed out to my local Target at 7:50. No line and got one of the 3 they rec'd. Reading on CAG later how many people had trouble finding these. Happy to have mine. Been waiting for an XL for a while and this seems nice, plus $159 is a nice price. Probably pick up Luigi's Mansion for the free game bonus.
