Deal Alert: Pick Up A 3DS, 3DS XL, or 2DS Plus One Select Game, Get ‘Pokemon X/Y’ For FREE!

Briefly: If you’ve been thinking about picking up console from the 3DS family, but for some reason haven’t gone for it, now is the perfect time!

Nintendo is launching a pretty fantastic promotion beginning March 1st that should definitely move some units (though not the units that Nintendo needs to move). Basically, you pick up a 3DS, 3DS XL, or 2DS, and one select game, and you’ll get a copy of Pokemon X or Y for FREE. The game costs $39.99 on its own, and is absolutely fantastic (check out our review here), so there’s a good chance that you’ll end up playing it far more than the game that you actually buy.

All you need to do is register the console and one of the following games on Club Nintendo between March 1 and 31:

Mario Kart 7
Super Mario 3D Land
Animal Crossing: New Leaf
Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D
Lego City Undercover: The Chase Begins
Yoshi’s New Island

Pretty cool, huh? Be sure to let us know if you’ll be jumping on this one! If you don’t have a 3DS yet, you totally should, because it’s totally awesome.
