I live in the United States and if you haven't heard NoA doesn't plan on selling the standard "New" 3DS in the United States. I don't want an XL because I already have one and it is a bit too big and I want to downsize. Anyone know of if I should try to import one from Europe? Is there any catch (Other than Region Locking) that I have to deal with? I plan on getting Xenoblade and Pokemon Omega Ruby for it.

(I'm also wondering if I should import from Japan, but the problem is I don't know Japanese)

That was just your college class dough so no U but, how many weebs?
She went to a public University. It's an odd school that I'll be going to eventually. Basically it's easy to get into the Uni and most people transfer to other schools to do better grad programs.

5 weebs including the weird kids and my sister and her boyfriend.

The region locking is going to be a pain in the ass, but other than that I can't think of anything.

Yeah, the cost seems to be a bit more. To get Omega Ruby it will cost me about $50 and the standard N3DS is about $200 as well (These prices include shipping).

I thought they weren't region locking the N3DS?

I was planning to do that, bu the region locking makes it not worth it to me.

Until people online figure out how to fix that, I won't be getting the N3DS

Nope. This is Nintendo we're talking about.

Christian is doing fine with his Japanese 3DS. I dunno mang. Region locking seems like a huge downside.
