Nintendo Europe Adding New 3DS Cover Plates To Selection From April 2

that pikacho one :O
to bad new nintendo 3ds xl cant have face plates ;-;
So in other words, you could say that they are adding new New 3DS cover plates, but only for the New 3DS and not the New 3DS XL… Nintendo needs to name their products better lol
NEW NEW. It’s the new LIKE LIKE that you can LOVE LOVE. *gives up*
In other words, I agree – it doesn’t make headlines any easier.
Haha
:(
Nice icon.
Losing weight hollowgrapej?
No. Lol.
Why couldn’t the XL have faceplates? That’s my main reason for wanting the smaller model. I hope they make faceplates a standard thing on the next portable. I really hate this region exclusivity shit.
I swear every time I see this I think that there are Nintendo employees somehwere laughing at me because I can’t have it T_T
I’m sorry…
XD ok I’m all better now.
I swear the way you act is on par with that guy in stripes
I wasn’t getting mad seeing faceplates, but that Kirby one is too much. Now I am pissed.
Why must you torture me with your gifts!!! I hate living in America now…. T.T
Queer! America can’t buy – America won’t help Nintendo profits.
Nintendo no like profits. Please understand.
The Kirby and Pikachu one’s are the coolest ones Iv seen yet.
T_T Man, so much we missing out on. I love customization…
That’s great for those who can purchase it.
I’m happy for you guys in Europe. For our sake, please buy lots of face plates so that Nintendo of America feels like they’re missing out on a profitable face-plate business.
They don’t care. They’re making enough with the New 3DS XL. Nintendo of America sucks.
Mean while in America…
I’m totally fine with not having faceplates until I saw that Xenoblade one, I almost freaked out lol. But besides the faceplates I honestly would have took the XL, I was probably taking it anyways. And I bet there would be more people mad about not having the xl than the normal size
I still don’t understand Nintendo’s reasoning for leaving these out of North America. Just ditch the XL and release the New 3DS and New 3DS XL here, ugh! I want that Pikachu face plate!
Yeah. The XL is pointless now. It makes no sense to keep it on the shelves.
