Cheap Nintendo 3DS XL – save 15% with our tech hot deal

Nintendo 3DS XL

Nintendo’s new XL version of the 3DS has a 90% larger screen and improved battery life over the original – but at the moment its also a lot more expensive. Our tech hot deal can help you get hold of the 3DS XL for the price of its predecessor.

Nintendo 3DS XL – 3D gaming in your hands

The original 3DS was the first handheld games console to provide a 3D screen without the need for special glasses. The XL is an update with a much larger screen, better battery life and new design.

The new larger screen at the top is actually the biggest Nintendo has ever included in a handheld console and this does mean you might struggle to fit it in the average pocket, but it’s still a very portable.

It is worth noting it doesn’t come with a charger – the XL is compatible with the original charger – but if you don’t have one them, you should be able to buy one from a shop for around £5.

Best Nintendo 3DS XL deal

As a fairly new handheld console the 3DS XL doesn’t come cheap – with most shops selling it for around £168 – but Tesco Entertainment is currently offering a 15% off voucher when you spend £25 or more – simply enter the code T15off25 when you get to the online checkout. This cuts the price to £144.30, which is £25 cheaper than buying the console through Amazon.

Hi Andy,

That deal is for the 3DS, not the latest 3DS XL model.

Not sure that Amazon is still not cheaper or around the same price? I believe they also throw in a free 3D game and comes with standard free delivery
