GameStop.com Now Taking Pre-Orders for Nintendo 3DS

GameStop (NYSE:GME), the world’s largest multichannel video game retailer, announced today that it is now taking pre-orders at GameStop.com for Nintendo’s revolutionary new handheld gaming system, 3DS. Both the Cosmo Black and Aqua Blue colors are currently available to pre-order in stores and online at www.GameStop.com/3DS.

“Nintendo 3DS will transform the handheld gaming market,” said Bob McKenzie, senior vice president of merchandising at GameStop. “Last week, I had the chance to play Super Street Fighter IV 3D on the system, and seeing is definitely believing with this platform. It is an amazing 3D gaming experience that doesn’t require special glasses to become immersed in the games.

"We are also excited to announce this next-gen handheld technology will be available to demo at GameStop stores nationwide in late March. I’m eager to see customers’ reactions,” stated McKenzie.

Beginning Monday, Jan. 24, customers who trade in a DS Lite, DSi or DSi XL towards the purchase of a Nintendo 3DS will receive in-store credit up to $100. See store for details.

Nintendo 3DS will be available March 27, 2011 for $249.99 online and at all North American GameStop locations. For more information on the Nintendo 3DS, visit www.GameStop.com/3DS.
