Pikman Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Which in theory, gamestation should match right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sambob Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 They only match high street stores, not supermarkets unfortunately... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pikman Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Shame about the price matching at Gamestation, pretty sure I'm stuck with £220, oh well. That Tesco deal has been amended. They have done a quick MS paint job on it and swapped the 7 and 9 around, lol. Still good at £207 for a 3DS and any game though - and quidco if you use it at 9% which makes it £188 if it works on deals. Beats Gamestation hands down, I'm looking at £255, huge difference!!

retroed Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 I just paid for my SSFIV3DE and Pilotwings Resort preorders. Shit just got real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sambob Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Now Gamer Hardware Review Yeah can't say I totally disagree with the general review, it's quite critical, and stuff like it feeling cheaper than the iPhone could be down to the circa 400 quid price difference for example, but I would agree that you've got to see it before you buy it, and that there will definitely be a nicer model in a year or so which will make more sense to buy...basically it's the issue with early adoption as with any gadget, but I don't think it applies more heavily here than with any previous gadget (the example of superior build quality, the iPhone 4, i seem to remember not working for a lot of people) so that's why I'm saying the review is on the critical side. Ed, where are you getting those pre-orders from? Does this mean zavvi are taking payment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikman Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Yeah, I'm OK with another upgrade in a year or so if it improves on the design - not sure what that entails yet, it felt fine to me when I had a go, we'll see what prolonged play is like. Good review though, nice to see some proper detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craymen Edge Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Well there's the weird edges they added for no apparent reason, plus the less than great battery life. So there's scope for a better looking, better performing one a little further down the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retroed Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Ed, where are you getting those pre-orders from? Does this mean zavvi are taking payment? ShopTo. You can pay for preorders at any point with them, and as I was paying via Paypal I thought I may as well do it now. 12 days! I'm still tempted by Lego Star Wars III, and I want to see some more of the Ghost Recon game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikman Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Ed: 12 long days! I have my eye on Ghost Recon too, thinking of swapping my pre-order over to it from SF, not THAT crazy for fighters really. Mind you, I did really enjoy the last DoA I played... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
