700,000 3DS' sold here and were important enough to get the new 3DS before the US, thanks Nintendo. And at a great price as well. My wallet will cease to exist this November.

About $200 for 3DS and $250 for XL. Prices might have changed, but new 3DS is priced greatly.
Xenoblade 3DS confirmed for English release in 2015?
He's all over it on Twitter :lol
Man i think i will get this sucker. I will be able to use my current XL charger i guess.
btw. My NNiD is tied the German eShop - but i guess this wont make a difference when transferring stuff over ?
That's gonna be available for all 3DS users.

No. No news other than that.
Oh. A pity they're not reestructing some of the OS, had hoped that with the increase in RAM, they'd make the console interact more smoothly with the Wii U, making cross buy a sooner possibility...
It shouldn't at all. It should transfer over like any 3DS, unless they've added a region lock specific to Australia (which is super unlikely).
So happy they're bringing the white N3DS over. It was a bit up in the air for a while. And the faceplates I like too.

It's already like that for the eShop. :'(

if your region is on that 3DS then you can transfer that account, otherwise not
The eshop is tied to the NNID. So a UK NNID can get the UK eshop with an Aus system.. If that makes sense.

Hmm was gonna wait for a special edition but might buy the regular New 3DS in November for the faceplates
, then grab an XL when a nice
special edition releases.
and to rub it in all you NA/EU peeps faces
Xenoblade
Only if you've locked an NNID. And it doesn't affect physical titles.

New 3DS releasing in Australia this year, but not EU & US? How exactly did they earn that? *shakes fist*
Also, New Nintendo 3DS name confirmed for the west? Why... ;_;

An almost complete list of the cover plates available at launch can be found here. 20 at launch. Retails from $18AUD.
Official website here.
Can't find any confirmed prices for NZ, no retailers appear to have them live yet. Press release doesn't say.

ozgameshop.com.au is good, and based in UK. Though they have a mix of UK and AUS stock, so it's kind of unclear whether they'll be selling AUS New 3DS stock.
He wants to import a 3DS from Australia to the UK. The UK equivalent would be 365games. They do tend to get Australian stock in, but consoles might have shipping issues.
They won't ship a 3DS unit outside of Aus/NZ I think.
I think he means you can't switch regions as you like anymore. But yeah, it's still import friendly the way it is. I imported my 3DS from the UK (for that animal crossing pattern) and can access the Australian EShop, because it's still PAL. I just can't access the UK one anymore without losing my saves.
