Was expecting prices to reach RM8xx for the 3DS but it's a real let down that the battery life is so short. Maybe I'll wait for Lite version.. but a 2 year wait? 

FYI this will be my first time getting my very own Nintendo console, the last I actually held was a Game Boy! GBA-DSi never appealed to me.

But didn't the original DS sell for RM700+ during its early days?

It went for roughly RM900 when it was first launched. I bought my DS phat for RM890 then.

based on wikipedia every DS upgrade has been about 2 years apart from each other.

Haha. Gondarz is really smart on this.

Now this is all only probabilities, but so far gondarz did get it right.

Actually, Sony consoles and Nintendo are getting the Sirim treatment. I know because I've been selling them for so many times. At least with the testing done early, it means we might get it at launch date.

But remember, launch date is on a Sunday.

Lah jangan takut.
for me 3ds already alot improvement from last handheld. see the lineup thats a strong lineup also got variety game for audience. also in our country most people never see 3d on handheld and that already got attraction. i buy 3ds cause i grow up with all nintendo game and nintendo have strongest first party game that still alive until now. u also can see most 3rd party studios already support 3ds and remember they target core gamers now and most of Shovelware game gone. nintendo the only company have shigeru miyamoto how awesome is that. that my idol there. and development for 3ds sure will not costly like other device  have killer cost to make a game. trust nintendo its worthy, nintendo the only company not care much about other company . they do what they do.

just release another version with better battery life is enough... or maybe 3DS XL...

800-1200.
in RM.

Pre-ordered mine from amazon. Cant wait! 

Preoredered from amazon.uk. Hope they gna lower the price more come launch day. Was 220£ b4 now 202£. 

Exactly. But then again, if you think its gonna be RM 760 in Malaysia, i can tell you that's wrong.

Here's a bit of trickling story for the update on 3DS in Malaysia.

So far, the 3DS has been sent back and the approval too has been sent to Japan. So they can send in their units anytime.

So far, all is ON SCHEDULE.

On schedule lah.

DEY WHY SIGGY MY POST!
