According to the sign GAME Australian Nintendo 3DS future would indeed be sold at nearly 300 euros in the West. Mere speculation or concrete info?

It remains for Nintendo to announce the price of its Nintendo 3DS outside Japan, and even further afield also its release date western still not revealed. For the Japanese archipelago, is very clear, it will be available February 26, 2011 against 25,000 yen, or 220 €. A cost that we already seemed important, but the Australian site of the sign GAME has even worse to teach us.

Nintendo 3DS is indeed listed at 398 Australian dollars (prices do that for Internet sales), what makes us close to 300 euros or 289 euros if you want a precise figure. We are generally accustomed to pay a little more expensive than the Japanese, but here, hard to believe our eyes, yet open.

Two things: either GAME has reliable information that we are unfortunately not yet received, or it is just a guess. But in this case, when one chooses to better estimate the price of a machine, it tries to find one that tries to suit both the builder and the consumer, right?

CAUTION, as usual, this type of news is to be taken lightly!

I'm sorry but £247 for a handheld console is just far too much. The initial price of the PSP Go was out of order as one could buy a PS3 with that amount of money. I hope the final price isn't €290 when the 3DS finally arrives.
