Yes you are right in saying that games are expensive new here. Infact they are a rip off! They retail new between $80-$100 and collecter editions are even more. Thats why the smart gamers buy from overseas online. But you can find bargains too if you shop around and many stores slash prices.

EBgames is listing the 3DS here for $348!!!

If you trade in your old DSi and two games, you get 125€ off of the price of a new 3DS.
