Orange and Teal Limited Edition 3DS XLs Are Coming to Japan

Damn it, Japan gets all the coolest stuff before we do. Oh sure, Nintendo is a Japanese company and it would make sense for them to unveil these new limited edition 3DS XL there before anywhere else. But still. Why do we have to play Pokémon in an old and busted device instead of the new hotness?

You could always have them imported in, of course, but it’ll run you upwards of 19,900 yen (about $204 USD), and that’s not even including the shipping cost. Guess you have until November 28 when the devices drop to decide if it’s worth the money.
