Today, Nintendo announced the former Japan-only limited edition Pokemon X & Y 3DS XLs would make their way overseas. However, there was no word on whether the game would be bundled with the new red and blue versions, possibly issuing them as digital downloads early as per their previous 3DS bundles. Nintendo UK has clarified the issue on their Twitter page, saying that the games will be sold separately. Both versions will retail at $199.99/£179.99 in North America and Europe on September 27.
Red and blue Nintendo #3DSXL systems feat. Xerneas & Yveltal launch on 27/9 but the #PokemonXY games will be sold separately from 12/10

So old news..
can you only play pokemon on this?
No you can play any game its just a limited edition 3DS
Ill save up for the 1ds
I wouldn’t expect them to come with the game, considering they mentioned the universal release date so much.
Makes sense, I want the Red console, but the X version of the game
this
this
Yeah but you can only play windwaker on the blue one i guess because = blue = water
I had go into my storage room, seek out my giant #1 foam hand for the facepalm I am about to give you.
*facepalm*
Kind of a stupid decision if you ask me.
Actually no, I take that back.
Still though, I’d rather they released it on the 12th with the game too instead of september and without
Sweet! don’t want the game anyway.
Kind of a rip off… seeing how this is the Pokemon X and Y limited Edition 3DS XL yet you don’t get the game…. I’m sorry Nintendo but I’ll have to say this like I said to Bethesta… fuck you.
Except they’re selling it for the price of a regular XL. I really don’t see the problem here.
well at least we get these so stop complaining. if i didnt have my 3ds xl i would buy either and either x or y
I’m surprised the don’t do what they did with the Zelda bundle
well then what’s the damn point?
To get a special 3DS XL people thought was never going to come to the States at a regular price instead of a hiked up one? Admit it; if it had the game, you would probably be here complaining about how its price increased from the usual XL (hell you and several others probably did that when the Fire Emblem 3DS came out). Seriously, no one complained when the Pikachu XL didn’t have White 2/Black 2/Pokedex 3D Pro with it. So what, need to fill that hate quota and this quota with these XL models?
The only complaining I did with the Fire Emblem 3DS was the shipping mismanagement. I was fine with the cost (considering it was $10 cheaper to get that than the system/game separate).
I was one of those who didn’t complain about the limited-edition Pikachu 3DS XL because I purchased mine for $160 at my nearest Target store and sold it to some moronic dork online for $780.
amen to that
I want the 1DS, too bad it’s not real :(

Is this compatiable with the gamecube? I want to use my link cable
of course the games aren’t included. whoever thought they were can’t think properly. don’t the games have a single worldwide release date.
They do, but I’m thinking this is related to the Wind Waker HD coming out earlier on the bundle/eShop than it’s scheduled release date.
do i get pokemon blue red pre installed so that i can get charmander bulbasaur and squirtle?
thats freaking gay
id rather have it released closer to x and y so we can get the games for i.
I smell closet homo.
Republicou isso em Curiosidades na internet.
Nintendo got things the wrong way around.
YOU SHOULD HAVE MORE GAMES THAN CONSOLE COLORS !!!!!

are you kidding!?… Guess I’m not getting one. I thought the 3DS XL came WITH X or Y at $200. I don’t want to have to pay for both when I have a perfectly good normal 3DS. 💋

I’m definitely getting one. I wonder when I’ll be able to pre-order it.
