EDIT: Sorry, accidentally posted this in the Finders Keepers section. Can a mod move it to the Price Check section?

Okay guys, I have a chance to get a Zelda 3DS CIB with all of these games for $225.
Now I have a chance to get either this or the Red 3DS w/ Super Mario 3D land installed for $150 on Black Friday.
Now I don't know if it'd be better to just get a completely new 3DS and know there's no flaws and stuff, or all of this for $225. I feel kind of dumb even asking this since the 3DS goes for about 200 alone with a bad condition box.

I am leaning more towards this Zelda one but the box condition just bugs me...

 Come on NA, help me turn this into a potential Finders Keepers!

Id take the deal with the zelda one if youd rather have the smaller one than the xl. That is a good set of games to go with it and the zelda 3ds is pretty cool. I know the feeling about not being sure if you should buy a used one or not (I went through the same thing before I got my 3ds off a member on here a while back). If it were me Id take the deal.

depends if you feel that the Zelda 3DS is (omg rarez!) enough to justify the cost rather than waiting for something cheaper.

Yeah I've always told myself that I wouldn't buy a 3DS used just because to me, it would be so much more worth it just to have one with new and fresh screens. Maybe I can get a normal new one when the price gets a little bit lower. I'll probably take this deal, just want to here some input from others. Thanks!


I mean for $225, I'm mostly looking at the games. Seeing that a 3DS is 170ish and this one is being sold anymore, I think that with these games and it being a Zelda 3DS, it's worth $225. I just wanted to see opinions from other members. Thanks!

If your a fan of Zelda you need to get the LE Zelda 3DS. I got a great deal on my Zelda 3DS few months ago ($150). No games, but came with the box with all paper work and the Nintendo Club code wasn't used !! I got it around the time the 3DS XL came out.

Also the games on that list are a must have for any 3DS owner. LoZ: OoT, Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart 7 are def my favorite games on the 3DS. The other games you should probably sell - Golden Eye, Sonic Rush and that pilot game aren't that great. If you sell them you can use the money towards a few new 3DS games. I haven't tried Snake Eater 3D yet - lot of mix reviews with the controls and other features.

So yeah... I think its a great deal. I'm just wondering if Nintendo/Gamestop will even release a LE 3DS XL bundle on Black Friday.... so far the way its looking its prob not going to happen .

eDit: One more thing. Is there any photos of the Zelda 3DS? Make sure theres no major cracks or marks. I've seen some with cracks around the camera.

You should definitely go with the Zelda + games. That will only go up in value. The games alone are worth more than half that. I'll buy it if you don't

Yeah, the Zelda deal buy far. You could sell the games and have less than $100 tied up in the system. This is a no brainier. If you don't do it, get it and ill buy plus a 10% finders fee!

Lol....beat me to it!

Okay, thanks guys, I guess I'll take it.

And for ClassicGames:

He says that a screen protector has been on the whole time, so I'm not too worried about the screen, but the outside of the system seems to have a couple dings or whatnot around. Eh, I'm still going to pick it up, just cause it's badass.

It would be foolish not to take the Zelda system. The price difference maybe $75 but look at the value of those games coming with that big package. If you even up hating a few of them you could get it back down to $150 or even less.

get it, sell the games, hold on to the ds.

I sold one maybe a month or so back 150 shipped on ebay with no box no charger.

That seems like a pretty good deal. You got some good games there, and the systems in good shape.

All the 3DS games are $40 titles from what I see (5 meaning $200) and the Pokemon game is a solid $25-30 still and the other DS games are at least $5 a piece.

Thanks for the input guys, I have the deal set up to meet on Monday, and I'll update you guys once it's been done. Wish me luck!

$5 says you get it sold out from under you.
Sorry to be a downer but this has been happening a lot to me lately

I paid $227 for my 3DS XL brand new with mario kart 7. so in my opinion, the Zelda is a deal with just the games alone.

It's been happening to me a lot lately as well, but this guy says he'll hold it for me. Others usually don't respond when I ask them to hold it for me and just reply to me once it's been sold. This guy seems pretty legit though. It's been posted for a while as well, so I don't think any interest has been brought to this item just for the fact it's "priced so high" compared to other 3ds' on craigslist.

GL to me!
