DS Lite - First look!

Does anyone know if Game shops take pre-orders over the phone?

Nintendo shaft us again.....

True but come on, BLACK!

UK ?99.99, USA $129.99 + sales tax = $137.69 (New York at 6%) which = ?78.26 (at tourist rate S1.76 to the ?1)

So UK ?99.99
USA ?78.26

If you are on hols in the USA when it come out it is a better buy.

I can live with that pricing myself. I remember in the (not so good!!) old days when it was always a case of $1= ?1 at luanch.

At least we swap all our unwanted stuff to get one for next to nowt.

Take off UK VAT and you get ?84.
Take of US sales tax you get ?74.
Not that much difference really.

Thanks the heavens. I'm waiting

For once, NOE get their finger out, and give a decent release. Only ?10~?20 difference and a sleek new colour. I just don't know which coilour to buy, so I'll stick a preorder on each of them, and wait closer to release on deciding which one I want.

[gizmo1990]

So where are we all pre-ordering then!?

Suggestions please as I don't normally buy UK games stuff.

[themanwithapc]

I'm either going for GAME online, or more likely, Gameplay. They seem like the best choice.

black for me without a doubt. Gameplay said pre orders will be up in about 3 hours!

[gizmo1990]

I need to place a pre-order in a shop. Going away the 23rd so I'd need to pick it up on the day.

Am I simply looking at game?

I normally go with game if it has to be a shop purchase purely because the Leeds centre branch of gamesation is a squalid dump (IMO). Genrally find them ok.

Are you positive about that?

Can I cancel my pre-order at any point if I go with them?

My fingers hoving over their website!

What about dp's too though? Do they have a return policy?

Ordered from gameplay, upgraded the shipping. Time to flog my Navy DS Lite...
