I enjoy mine and feel it was and is well worth 99

[xbox lives on]

sweet, I'm going to get one of the classic NES looking ones now!

I'll wait until Black Friday to get one. Probably be $50 then.

I paid full price for my Platinum and 69.99 AR at FYE for my retro, which is untouched except for a few four swords sessions. When the DS comes out, if it seems fun, I'm going to look to trade my platnum and some crappy games in if there's a good deal on the DS. However, that's only if the DS can be used for gamecube connectivity...which I'm not sure it can.

I doubt Nintendo will make the DS with connectivity, would be cool, but for example the GBA can't do it with GBC games, what would be cool is if Nintendo used the wireless connection for connectivity, I'm exicted that Nintendo has hinted that almost no games will require 2 games to play mulitplayer

I knew this price drop was related in a way to the color changes with the SP.

I had this idea before that Nintendo should make charater themed SPs. Like a shiny orange and dark red one for Samus, a blue and red for Mario, etc. Perhaps thats what they will do. Except with EBgames which get the tribal tattoo sp.

I just saw a commercial for the price drop on TV, has anyone else?

I was in a Shopko here in La Crosse, WI and they already have the SPs at $79.99. They had large signs indicating a "new lower price".

[quote name='"Oktoberfest"']naw it's still not worth it to buy basically the same thing when i already have a good regular gba[/quote]

I agree. I still have my regular gba that I bought when it came out, and have had no problems with it once I found a decent lighting source.

Zewone, the Classic GBA SP NES Edition is dropping to $79.99 too. Tomorrow it should be that price everywhere. Sorry for the bad news(I gotta pick one of those up now).

 

[the_deej]

[CheapyD]

[quote name='zewone']I'm just glad the Retro isn't included. Then I fell stupid for buying one a month ago. I've never seen that Tattoo one before. Its quite ugly.[/quote]
