Sounds like it is open to any retailers who wish to carry it. I hope Best Buy offers it online so I don't have to go fighting BF crowds.
What is this "screen lottery" you guys are referring to?
New 3DSes use a mix of IPS and non-IPS screens, seemingly at random, plus the top and bottom screens can have different white balances.What is this "screen lottery" you guys are referring to?

Ah here we go, the magic of cover plates. The Xenoblade and FE plates look fantastic too. Better than any of the LE XL systems so far.
This is great if only because I'll be able to get those white embossed faceplates for sub-$10 on ebay in a couple months.
Where's N3DS flash carts at now adays? I'd like to pick one up, will grab some games, but I travel a lot and don't like carrying around games. Would like to backup, put on a flash cart, and put games in storage.
I completely disagree. IPS or bust on this thing. I hate the TN panel they use, even though I'm typically pro-TN.To me, it was always overblown, as 3ds screens aren't exactly high quality, regardless of which style panel you end up with.
