News: More UK Retailers Reveal New 3DS Prices

More post-cut prices come to light, with supermarkets again undercutting game stores by a significant margin...

The 3DS price cut officially goes into effect tomorrow, and Eurogamer has done a round-up of a few stores' new prices for the machine.

At the top end are the likes of Game and Gamestation. The standalone 3DS system will go for �149.99 in-store. In Game, you can also get the system bundled with The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D for �159.99 (previously �199.99). Both the standalone and the bundle will be �5 cheaper if you order on Game's website. Also, if you have a DSi or DSi XL to trade in, you can pick up the Ocarina bundle for a tasty �99.99.

In HMV, the 3DS system will also be �149.99, but this comes with a free game; you can choose between Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars, Rayman 3D, Asphalt 3D, Rabbids 3D, Splinter Cell 3D or Combat of Giants: Dinosaurs 3D. Alternatively, you can get a 3DS for a much lower price if you have a DS to trade in. A DSi XL will get you a 3DS for �69.99 - a saving of �80. A standard DSi will save you �50 and a DS Lite �40.

Supermarket chain Asda is to join with Morrisons in offering the system for �120, with Tesco apparently to undercut even that at �115. Sainsbury's is to price the 3DS at �140.

If you haven't yet jumped on the 3DS wagon, do these prices nudge you off the fence? Let us know below...
