option for collecting, maybe?

for all of you in the us, gamestop (like em or hate em) has a sale on the 2ds for $100 new, or $90 used. they still have the pink gamestop only 2ds with disney case included in the price, which unless i am wrong...goes for more used. ebay and amazon show them about $140 used, so if you like getting  color variants/limited editions this one to me makes total sense to buy.

I want to get a 2DS for my daughter for Christmas, so this might be the time. Thanks for mentioning it, and I'll drop by.

That sounds like a great deal for somebody that wants a backup, I am going to be waiting for the New 3DS though.
