I'm from Trinidad (an island in the Caribbean) and like new 3ds games here are like 62 USD, and the gaming consoles prices 3ds - $223 USD , 3ds XL-280 USD, its really expensive here, I don't understand why and Eshop cards are so hard to find, but if you do find them it ranges at these prices.

Here's the Eshop Cards prices- Exact prices.
$20 card ::::::::::::::::::::: TT$190. (USD 29.62)
$35 card ::::::::::::::::::::: TT$300. (USD 46.77)
$50 card ::::::::::::::::::::: TT$430. (USD 67.04)

$20 card ::::::::::::::::::::: AR$220. (USD 37.85) (+17.85) ($11 per dollar)
$35 card ::::::::::::::::::::: AR$350. (USD 60.22) (+25.22) ($10 per dollar)
$50 card ::::::::::::::::::::: AR$450. (USD 77.43) (+27.47) ($9 per dollar)

And the official dollar cost $5,8.
That means $5,8 per dollar.

Well, I have to pay the triple, so that is worst!
(With eShop cards, I save a lot of money, because one $50 cost me $80, and one $40 physical game can cost from $90 to $120)

That is worst :O Well, I can buy the games in a store that usually have it cheaper than others. This price usually € 5 cheaper at launch.

It's mostly because of the shipping bill (+ duties/taxes) and the profit the seller wants to make, ;)

Oh, still why so expensive :cry:,and its real hard to find use games here also. I know the profit those people make is more than 20 USD on video games.

Thanks, I hope so to , I gotta be really picky as to what I buy to play. I gotta wait a while before buying the Wii U but I hope that for my birthday I get a 3ds XL.

Lol... Well, nothing to cry when you see this:

Nintendo 2DS (US$2000) --> 343,6 dollars
Nintendo 3DS (US$2100) --> 360,7 dollars
Nintendo 3DS XL (US$2700) --> 463,8 dollars
Nintendo 3DS XL (Pokémon X & Y Edition) --> (US$3000) --> 515,7 dollars

Yes, the 2DS isn't cheaper than the 3DS because the taxes here doesn't work like they should...
Now everything is 4X the prize... Damn, I see I won't buy so many games next year...

@dilawer @Master O'Puppets
What about you two?

Wow, these games are really expensive yet we still buy 'em but its still worth our money, I still don't understand why these item gotta be so expensive, those Gamestore people where I live must be getting a fortune. @ErixSan I too won't be buying much games next year, @Master O'Puppets whats the price of a physical copy of a 3ds game by you ?

If those themes aren't beautiful, I don't know what is. Looks great, too bad I won't be getting one tho :(
 
  • #37
They're beautiful *_* Too bad I already bought a 3DS XL earlier this year -.-

So I am the only European to own one ?
As for the game, yes, it would be great if it was sold with, but, by judging how much you pay for your games,
I feel lucky to live in France.
Anyway, while I'm waiting to go and get a bunch of 3DS games, I can still stick with my old DS Lite Games.

yeah, you definitely got your 3DS at the right time. I'm in a similar situation with my Wind Waker HD Wii U (although I'll have Wind Waker to keep me occupied :D)

Woohoo ! I knew that this 3DS was rare, but it is even more hard to find than expected !
I'm so lucky then !
