      It is NOT a rumor! Its from Nintendo. HOW IS IT A RUMOR?

  • Trulaw

    If people want to avoid
    disappointment I’d advise them not to get too hyped after the E3
    failure. If Nintendo get it right this time, that’s a better time to
    get hyped.

    • Megajacob

      fanboys are hyped for anything small or big and only dissapointed for a day or two

  • Flip

    I don’t think we’ll be getting a price, UK retailers choose their own price to sell the systems at but hopefully we’ll be getting a date then in the next few weeks/months it’ll be time to look around for the best deal.

    • TheUltimateKoopa

      That was for the 3DS not every system you numpty.
