Nintendo 3DS: where is the love?

In the last couple of days, in the wake of the launch of the Nintendo 3DS in Amsterdam on Wednesday, we’ve been asking you about how much you’re prepared to pay for the Nintendo 3DS, and whether you’re going to snap one up, given what you saw from the launch. To our surprise, Electricpig readers don’t seem overwhelmed by the Nintendo 3DS, with lots of you saying that you would not be shelling out for the Nintendo 3DS.

The day before the event in Amsterdam, we asked you how much you would pay for a Nintendo 3DS. An overwhelming majority of Electricpig voters, 81%, said the Nintendo 3DS would have to be under £200. Only 16% said you would pay between £200 and £300, which is the price of the 3DS.

We also asked you whether you were planning on buying a 3DS, and much to our surprise, 47.5% of you said that you either can’t see 3D, or viewed it as just another fad that will pass. 31.5% of voters were cautious with the new glasses free tech in the Nintendo 3DS, and said you wanted to try out the 3D display first. Only 21% of you were completey dols on the Nintendo 3DS after launch, and said you would be snapping one up as soon as possible.
