Is 3DS dead in SA?

[InternetSwag]

Saw a few of the 2DS XL's around, but was looking for the 'New' 3DSXL and everything is out of stock. Takealot etc.

And games are scarce as well. I guess it's pretty much dead like the PSVITA?

Yeah it seems so.
Importing via Amazon is an option.

Pretty much. Been looking for one since end November.

Not too keen on second hand...

You could import it from Amazon

I have two of them, one working and one broken. Bought mine at Incredible, but they are pretty scarce though, especially if you don’t want to get ripped off.

Tried getting a battery a year ago. That was also a big NO.

But yeah, its been dead for a while. Best thing is even though its dead the games are still sky high

Yeah Ive got a 3DS and a DSi XL finding games for either is damn near impossible these days. Bid or Buy sometimes has a few items but sometimes pricey.

Got the original 3DS, playing old games though. Haven't checked in a while but www.Raru.co.za has some games and merch for the 3DS.

**was burgled twice in 2012 and the 3DS was the only electronic item to survive both burglaries
