Take a good hard look at this motherfucking boat

So I hadn't bought a 3DS yet because I wanted either a good deal or a pack with Ocarina. And I was thinking that the latter was not going to happ--



OH MY. And it's for Europe!



I didn't really want to buy a solid black thing because my NDS is black too, and I liked the blue and red ones. But look at this motherfucker, just look at it! It's gorgeous. I was worried about the price, but apparently it's going to be 199€. The lowest I've seen a console go is 166, and the lowest I've seen the game go is 37 (summing 203€ total), so if that's the price it's actually a sweet deal!

So basically, SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY, NINTENDO. I'm glad I waited.

I saw that yesterday and I was all HGSHDJ;SDJHK WHY. But then I thought that I'd prefer it to be dark green or something instead of black (too boring) and anyway I can't justify buying it when I still want to buy some DS games (LAYTOOOOOOON) and jhsdf;jsdf yeah :(

I KIND OF WANT IT STILL THOUGH.

As pretty as this one is, I really wanted to buy either the half blue or full red one. I tend to end up with black/white/gray consoles (the most colorful I've got was a purple Gamecube while my brothers had a gold one) and I envy the bright are-you-ripping-off-Apple-products-again colors when they're out much later. But it's a bundle with my second favorite game of all time (which I planned to re-buy one day anyway) and it's got the Hylian coat of arms on it s-so I think I'll just... forsake the pretty colors again to save money and get nerd bragging rights.

I can't justify the buy, TBH. The only game that's out that I want is this Zelda, and maybe the Mario if it's not terrible. Kid Icarus doesn't have a release yet date. Tales of the Abyss was coming out this month but got postponed. I'm still playing NDS/GBA games but... this might be the only chance to get this console within a good price range and including a game I'll play the living hell of it.

Right now I want the red one (SO PRETTY), but who knows, by the time I buy it they may have different colors or another model/rehash a la DS lite or something?

And I'm also after Zelda, Mario and Abyss only atm, so I definitely can wait. BUT MAN I UNDERSTAND WANTING TO GET THIS. SO SHINY ♥
