3DS

As of late, we’ve been hearing about quite a few 3DS games that have been pushed back in Japan. Game Center CX 3 is the latest title to be suffering a delay. Namco Bandai has moved the game’s release date back from January 23 to March 20.

Best Buy has lowered the price of a few 3DS/DS games. Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion, Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask, and Pokemon Quest are currently available at lower prices. You’ll find links to each below.

Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion – $9.99 (update: price-matched on Amazon)
Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask – $19.99
Pokemon Conquest – $19.99

While we’re on the topic of deals, I’ll also mention that Atlus’ Shin Megami Tensei IV deal is now live on Amazon.

Update 2: Target can’t seem to get its facts straight! The retailer now says the price will be honored after all.


Update: Turns out Nintendo’s information was incorrect. Target says the Zelda 3DS XL bundle won’t be offered for $150, but all other standard models will be.


Original:


Target is giving consumers all of the reasons in the world to pick up the Zelda 3DS XL bundle on Black Friday. Starting on November 28, it’ll be available for just $149.99. Most retailers have been selling it for $220 out of the gate. The deal ends on November 30.
