I'm beginning to wonder whether this is false advertising!
SR have priced the GBA at £88.99 for any colour with a free carry case, however in the latest NOM, in the shops today, they have confirmed the UK official price as £79.99.
Also, most of the games are priced at around £32.99 on SR, however NOM have said that games are to be priced between £25 and £30!

There is a problem with the wording of our offer which we should really have changed by now. I will need to follow up on this on Monday.
Basically, despite what NOM are saying, Nintendo have not set a recommended price and have set the trade price too high for a realistic £79.99 price point.
As a result I think most retailer will be forced to do something similar to us.
In answer to the question "is the carry case free?". We thought so when we orginally made the offer. But the confusion over RRP means that we should be saying GBA with Carry Case (and drop the word free).
However - we are still trying to put our offers together and you can be sure that there will be a deal which will suit everyone.
