the small score's thread

I bought a (new) DSi XL yesterday for €99.95.

I was in a store and looking at the game section I saw that the DSi XL was priced €99.95. I thought that was odd and on closer inspection for some reason only the yellow model was €99.95. The other colors were €169.95. I double checked at one of the UPC scanners in the store and sure enough the yellow model was €99.95 and all the others €169.95. All 3DS were €189.95. There were no more regular DSi, but until recently those were still €149.95.

I'm pretty happy about it, as I was looking for a used DS at the flea market for the past couple of months but I kept putting it off as all the sellers there are asking €60-70 for completely beat up DS Lites and DSi with the touch screens scratched like hell and I didn't want to spent that much for a used DS in that condition.

That is a very interesting color.  I don't think we received that over in NA.  Great price on the XL though.  I think it is the best version of the DS line that you can buy.

Thanks. I do believe each region gets an exclusive color (but Japan gets them all?). Perhaps that's yellow for Europe, I'm not sure. Either way, I like the price a lot. €169.95 is the standard price for an XL here in Belgium in just about any store. I don't think I've ever seen them cheaper until yesterday. And basically it's €170 vs €100. Quite a significant price difference, no clue why though as they had about 2-3 boxes of each color.

I love that color. Definitely my favorite I've seen so far.

Nice find, especially on Kirby's Air Ride.  I've been looking for that one for a long time.

I've been looking for Kirby's Air Ride and Chibi-Robo for years now.

Got a new xbox 360 yesterday.  Traded in my old pro at Gamestop for $150.  They had left there old ads up so they had to give me $50 extra plus a 30% increase.  It was hilarious.  Bought a new 4gb model for a total of $50.  Took my 250gb hdd apart and popped it in the new one.  I finally got my revenge.

Finally picked up a copy of Dead Rising for the 360. I've passed on 10 bazillion platinum hits copies of the game. Finally landed an original release for $10.
