Shana09 5,769 Posted August 17, 2012 Source: Serebii.net Following a long tradition of special Pokémon themed consoles, a new special edition 3DS LL (known as 3DS XL in the west) has been announced for Japan. This special edition console features a special Pikachu decal and is known as Pikachu Yellow which covers the outside while the inside is white. It will cost 18,900 yen and only be sold in Pokémon Centre stores across Japan. Like all 3DSs, it will feature a region lock for 3DS and DSi games. I don't know if it's just in Japan or going to be sold overseas yet, but WHY DOES THIS GIVE ME A REASON TO BUY AN XL! 2 Weedanort and Kirie reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lizzie1238 538 Posted August 17, 2012 I do like Pikachu, but I prefer my handhelds to be regular-sized. 1 Kirux reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King Riku 2,063 Posted August 17, 2012 Hardly doubt it will be localized, Japan tends to keep things like this to themselves. Although, when Black and White were released there were special edition Reshiram and Zekrom DSi bundles. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob 5,571 Posted August 17, 2012 They should have put Shana's pic on the XL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King Riku 2,063 Posted August 19, 2012 Like this one? Among many others. Exactly. But it's even worse with Pokemon stuff for some reason. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kirux 1,224 Posted August 19, 2012 Well the did give us the BBS PSP bundle, so maybe there's some hope yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Weedanort 8,786 Posted August 20, 2012 Probably that 3DS's for Japan only. Pikachu looks cute though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J. Severe 1,137 Posted August 20, 2012 It has little chance of making it State-side, so this will probably never be mine, but if I were to get a 3DS XL, I'd get this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
