Anyone want to sell me a 3DS cheap? :awe: /beaps

I would love to play the new Mario on it but I would probably be buying it for that only :(

They pop up for £100 sometimes on hotukdeals, although maybe a bit more now with mario out and Christmas coming up. I doubt you'd find a second hand one for much less.

[edit]Nice pick on the kernow quote! I sees what you dids there. :lol:

Hooray for Mario, and the 3D really suits it, nice and subtle.

I'm still really tempted to buy one pretty much just for Mario 3D World, I just worry that it will sit on the shelf for 6 months afterwards :(

Got this for Chrimbo but haven't had a chance to play it yet - looking forward to it now tho, get disappointed so often with hype around games these days that its nice to finally have one that lives up to it...

Anyone finished with their Mario Land yet?
Can't seem to work up the enthusiasm to buy at full price.

Maybe it's because I didn't really get in to Mario Galaxy?
I did enjoy New Super Mario Bros though.

I had a quick go with it at Chrimbo and it didn't wow me. I enjoyed MK7 more.

Never used on a 3DS until today when I played Mario Land at Andy's, apon playing this even for 1 min I felt a little dizzy, but once passed it was quite a nice little system.

Indeed, been playing this more than Mario. If only the battery life wasn't so crap, barely makes a day's commute thanks to NXEA's Christmas service.

Not quite, just the last couple of the special worlds to go, I've been taking it slowly (just playing a couple of levels each day) and getting all 3 of the special coins on each stage, I think it's a lovely game so it's a keeper (I know that does'nt help you), but I honestly think it's worth paying full price for. Plus these kind of Mario games tend to hold their value if you decide to pass it on at some point in the near future. It's very similar in feel to NSMB which IMO is a good thing I've enjoyed it much more that I did Galaxy 1 & 2 which I also did'nt get into as much as I have done with previous Mario games.
