A funny fact from Nintendo when trading your 3DS to Gamestop

Nick McIntyre · February 11, 2015, 07:43:11 PM

So when I went to turn on my 3DS today to get $100 off the new 3DS XL, the Gamestop manager told me about Nintendo ' s brilliant policy: You HAVE to turn in your 3DS charger with your turn on, and Nintendo won't be shipping chargers with the new 3DS. You have to buy a brand new one, and if you use any third party chargers, the warranty is immediately void.

Great job Nintendo.

I wouldn't care if I could get the standard, because then I'd only be paying ~$60 for the console and charger.

THANKS NINTENDO, ENJOY NOT GETTING ANY MONEY FROM ME

I don't really keep up with Nintendo, but from what I've heard around lately they're being bitches with policies nowadays.

I hope this isn't the case when trading in the XL, because they don't come with chargers to being with.

Fucking retards. It's just like the PSP and the PS Vita . You have to buy a memory card separately because they don't come with one outside some bundle.

It's with all DS handhelds you turn in. Even the Gamestop manager was noticeably annoyed when he was explaining it to me.

Also, guess what I found out today guys? You know that big ol' SD card that your 3DS came with?

Fuckin' useless. The new 3DS XL is using MICROSD. Fuck off, Nintendo.
