In the market for a used portable game system? Nintendo is now willing to help you out directly, offering factory-refurbished portables through its website. The systems even come complete with the same one year warranty the company offers on new systems.
A refurbished Nintendo 3DS in Aqua Blue or Midnight Purple will run you $129.99 without a game, $40 less than the $169.99 MSRP for a new system. Nintendo is also offering the older DSi XL in either Metallic Rose or Midnight Blue for $99, $30 less than the new MSRP.
Perhaps, if you do not have a DS yet at this point, this might be the time to dive in. What do you think? It's probably a better deal than what I've heard of GameStop.

I think I saw somewhere that Nintendo is also offering a one-year warranty on used 3DS systems via GameStop.
My assumption is Nintendo is trying this to see if it will boost sales as the Wii U is currently slumping in sales.

Pretty awesome. I have a 3DS and I love it^^ I would recommend this to anyone who can't quite afford full price. I mean, I got mine new, but that sounds like a great deal.

This is pretty cool. I like this very much so indeed yes. Maybe one day...
I have yet to get a 3DS. And a Wii U, though that's maybe a year away from getting. No monayz bbys.
