Congrats to all those that got the price drop!

I got my aqua blue on Sun at target. Connected to the eshop last night. Going to go back on fri and get my price adjustment.

The one at Mecham Rd. Elk Grove Village, IL. still has some. Just bought a black one. Went in at about 8am, the price came up as $249 with the hand scanner. She did not know anything about the sale but then I came back at 10am and they had updated the price to $169. Thanks Cheapy!

Well, after 20 minutes at BB and them calling corporate, they said corporate is going to issue a no PM until the 12th memo, even though I was still well within the 30 day limit (I bought one at BB last week.). Luckily, I got a $170 blue 3DS at Walmart and stuck BB with a used 3DS. Go with Wal-mart if you can, folks.

Sounds like BB PM might be a hassle. Curious anyone know what is the size of the screen as compared to the DS Lite?

Google knows: Nintendo 3DS: Top screen measures 90 millimeters (3.53 inches) diagonally, and bottom touch screen measures 77 millimeters (3.02 inches) diagonally. Nintendo DS Lite: Top and bottom screen both measure 79 millimeters (3.12 inches) diagonally.

Ha, another San Diegan.

Just got mine at the West Hills, CA store for $169, so it's definitely at least in some west coast stores already. They only had one black and a few blue left, though, so I would get on it if you're in the area.

Just picked one up at the Chamblee store in Georgia. They didn't have the price cut marked, but it rang up as the lower price. They had a couple left of both blue and black.

Latham ny store has them at the dropped price

2 of one 4 of the other...can't remember which is which.

1 per due to limited quant.

RiverHead long island is a no go price was still 249.99

What the deuce?

One of the Walmarts in Cache Valley, UT already had a rollback tag on the 3DS units so there was no hassle at all. Good chance it's nationwide so anyone who had no luck before probably just has some busy/lazy managers.

That is the one I went to at 8am this morning. I hope they have some later this evening when I get out of work. Thanks for the heads up.

No go in Columbus, OH. Manager is on vacation so they couldn't do it. I wasn't the first to try either.

Just got mine in Sterling Height Michigan, got there at exactly the monment the manager was adjusting the price. Good thing I didn't go there at midnight. Also there were plenty of them there in stock.

If there's a jump in retail sales for the month we'll know who to thank (or blame, LOL). Way to go Cheapy!

I got the Aqua Blue 3DS for my niece for her birthday at the Opelousas, La Super Walmart. They had a sign up with the new lower price on it. Her birthday was on July 28th. Better late than never. Thanks Cheapy !

I'm sure you'll find another thread to troll. You always do.

Debating if it is worth the gas to travel 30 minutes away....but toooooooooo tempting with all the 3DS deals going on as of late.
