ahah i know i was just kidding :P if you need a 3DS it could be very convenient to get it from a Mediaworld or another "big chain store": there are many offers and deals, as well bundles (you could pick one from the comment above mine).
In Fiumicino airport there are a couple of shops specialized in electronics: https://www.adr.it/web/guest/fiumicino-risultati-negozi in this link, you can read where are these shops depending on which terminal your parents go Terminal T3, G and B Area). But I honestly don't know if they sell consoles or games.

There are a lot of stores.
Gamestop, Euronics, Mediaworld, Trony, Eldo, Saturn and La Feltrinelli too.
They are everywhere, 3 Gamestop are in "Via Appia Nuova" (Metro Line A - Stop at Re Di Roma) and "Via Tuscolana" (Metro Line A - Stop at Giulio Agricola). La Feltrinelli is near the Coliseum and Piazza Navona in "Galleria Alberto Sordi". Trony and Euronics are in "Via Appia Nuova" (Line A - Stop at Furio Camillo) while Eldo is in "Via Tuscolana" (Metro Line A - Stop at Lucio Sestio).
In the Airport Duty Free i don't remember if there's a store.. sorry :)

My personal advice as an Italian citizen. Do not buy videogames or electronics in Italy: in the most cases they cost more than in your country.
Btw if you buy only videogames nothing happens. Dunno for a brand new console but, imho, you are not in "danger".
Anyway Game Stop store locator

From experience, you rarely get many real electronic bargains at duty free. Whatever you save on taxes usually gets counter-balanced by a price-hike in the store. Add to that the hassle of returning it if there's an issue, and you're onto a loser.
I suspect getting it from someone like Amazon would not only work out cheaper, but would probably save you a heap of headaches if there's a problem with the unit.

How does Amazon.co.uk + Borderlinx delivery compare?

Can anyone list some?
I tried some word combinations and the only results on google were : "Video games developed in Italy", "Video games set in Italy" and a dumb question "Are there video game stores in Spain and Italy?"
P.S. Do they sell electronics (especially Nintendo 3DS + Games) at the Rome airport duty free?
