On January 14, Nintendo announced a limited-edition Majora's Mask-themed gold New 3DS XL. Since then, chaos has ruled humanity. Food is scarce. Most spend their days staying inside and huddling with their loved ones. Gangs of scalpers roam the streets to prey on hapless consumers who like shiny things.
Just got a New 3DS? Want to transfer all your digital games and save-files from your Old 3DS to your new one? Well, you're in for an adventure.
Do you live in North America? Want to get your hands on one of these sweet New 3DS faceplates? SORRY. Nintendo doesn't want to sell them to you.
"Holy crap."
That's what I said when I first saw the limited edition Majora's Mask New 3DS XL during the Nintendo Direct earlier this week -- when I first felt that overwhelming need that fuelled a post about limited availability that's so far racked up over 1.5 million page views.
We haven't seen much of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask for 3DS, but with the release date only a few weeks away, that's changing. A new 16-minute video provides our best look yet at the remake, which includes a number of gameplay changes to make it more approachable.
When Nintendo officially announced the New 3DS XL this morning, fans across North America had one big question: where's the smaller one?
If you were planning on holding out on the New 3DS XL for a Zelda special edition, then Nintendo's got you covered. Not only is Majora's Mask 3D coming out on February 13 -- same day as the New 3DS XL -- it's also getting a gorgeous special edition that will be out the same day.
It took just 15 minutes for GameStop to sell out of the fancy new Majora's Mask-themed New 3DS XL online, and if you're anything like me, you were totally bummed out when you saw that big grey "Not Available" on the retailer's website, taunting you.
