What?!?

 

[Mallrat83]

Holy shit. Microton?

 

[Shogmaster]

Still $30 too much.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

I want one :cries:

damn u tendo

 

[DCharlie]

wow - Japan just took it right up the chuff.

 

[Ironclad]

Wow, that's pretty interesting. EB and Gamestop haven't changed the prices on their websites.

How much were they selling it for at the NWS?

 

[cvxfreak]

This could very well be a mistake. Let's wait awhile before we confirm.

Yup, it could be a mistake. We'll see if the retailers update their websites at all. If Nitendo was selling it for $100 at the NWS, then it must be a mistake.

print it out and go get a price match at Circuit City or something

 

[cvxfreak]

:lol

Had it not been for the new GBASP, I would be all over this as fake.

Now, it makes no sense for the micro to be priced more since people have said the screen on the micro drove the price up.

Weird.

 

[Matlock]

The filename for the price is "classic NES" which, afaik, only applies to GBASP.

So?

The GC price one has Metroid Prime in the URL.

 

[DDayton]

If the Micro is $80, and the backlit SP is $70...

Things are going to get weird around these parts.

 

[Matlock]

So?

The GC price one has Metroid Prime in the URL.

And MP collaborates with the GC.

 

[cvxfreak]

And MP collaborates with the GC.

True, true. But it's also possible Nintendo doesn't find filenames to be significant and therefore went with an existing one.

 

[Daigoro]

wtf

Twilight Zone time for Nintendo.

WHATS HAPPENING?!?!

 

[soundwave05]

Most likely just a mistake since that's the price of the current GBA SP.

 

[polg]

mega wtf!

 

[jooey]

it's a goof. the actual resolution of the package picture doesn't match the html.

 

[BuddyC]

Nintendo is confusing me today. First everyone criticizes them for making a bunch of boneheaded oversights and then when Nintendo starts get their act together theyaddress these without any fanfare?

Not sure what you are talking about. This looks like a pricing mistake more than anything.

Get it while you can before it gets changed back to normal.

 

[Mac the KNife]

Huge if true, if only they had the Famicom version...

 

[Rahul]

stop making fun of me

 

[Docpan]

If it's 80, I'll buy it.

You listening, Nintendo?

 

[John Harker]

Didn't Meijlin say he bought one already?

How much did he pay.

 

[Piepz]

Not bad...
But... I gotta agree with Shog - still 30$ too much

[dark10x]

They changed it back?

 

[krypt0nian]

Still $30 too much.

Amen. $49 or bust.

It still says $79.99 for me. Still not buying it either way.

[The Faceless Master]

Holy shit. Microton?

INDEED! (if true)

 

[BuddyC]

That's odd. While I was in class it had changed to $99.99, but now it reads $79.99 again. Hrm.

 

[cvxfreak]

Still says $79.99. WTF.

 

[sonycowboy]

I'm getting 99.99 after I refreshed the page.


Also, This is out today??? We need reports!

But, if you visited this thread, you already loaded that image into your cache. Hit F5 and be amazed at the power of the internet.

 

[cvxfreak]

Five refreshes later, it's now $99.99.

LMAO, refreshed again and it's $79.99. :lol And back.

Huh, you're right. I did a refresh, I got $99.99. And now that I visit the site again, I got $79.99 and after I hit refresh I still get $79.99!

THE MYSTERY CONTINUES!!!

Five refreshes later, it's now $99.99.

LMAO, refreshed again and it's $79.99. :lol And back.

Yes buy the same machine again at full price. Typical.

The GBA is not worth $99 anymore.

yeah obviously I DIDNT TRY RELOAD, SHIFT+RELOAD, CLEARING CACHE MANUALLY, etc...

oh wow, still $79.99...

 

[Matlock]

I did a hard reload and it came up to $79.99, cleared cache, $79.99, and now the site's just going woefully slow.

 

[cvxfreak]

I noticed that my modified thread title was removed. :lol

shhh.

 

[IJoel]

Still $30 too much.

QFT

 

[Dante]

Yup, like someone said anything over $49.99 is too much for that. screen is just too small.

 

[Mejilan]

$99.99 + tax at the Nintendo World Store. Bought it on Monday, the 19th.

BTW, I get $99.99 to display at the Nintendo website. Not sure what the confusion was all about before.

 

[cvxfreak]

Looks like it's finally repaired. $99.99
