Asda offering Vita for £97 with 3DS trade-in

UK supermarket Asda will take £100 for a 3DS when purchasing a Vita, meaning you can walk away from the store with a Vita for £97 when you hand over your Nintendo handheld.

Without trade-in, it’s £197 for the wi-fi model of the handheld. Asda’s normal trade-in price is £47, so this is twice the normal rate.

Vita launched on Wednesday in Europe and the US.

Thanks, MCV.

Apparently it’s a pretty crap deal cos HMV and the like are offering much more for similar deals.

I don’t live in the UK. If i was, I would be smart: get a second hand 3DS for really really cheap somewhere.. and trade that one in for the Vita.. that way it would cost me less then a Vita straight like that.. Profit.. no kidding.
