Briefly: Nintendo fans have been waiting patiently to find out just when the newer, faster 3DS models would be coming to North America, and an apparent leaked Gamestop ad has revealed that the new iteration may be coming sooner than we thought:
If the ad (via NeoGAF) is real, it states that the new 3DS (or at least the XL model) will be available on February 13th (just in time for my birthday). What’s really interesting here is that the left side of the ad also shows the 3DS version of Majora’s Mask, which I really didn’t think we’d be seeing that early.
Only time will tell if the ad was real, and by time, I mean the Nintendo Direct presentation that Nintendo has scheduled for tomorrow. Keep your eyes on Geekscape for the confirmation (and keep your ears on the next episode of Geekscape Games, as I’m sure we’ll have a lot to talk about).
Will you be picking up the new version? Sound out below!
