I talked to Best Buy and they are getting 5. So I think BB/Target/Walmart are getting 5 per regular SKU and GS is getting the most.Wal-Mart had five of them in the case yesterday. Didn't try to purchase one, but the stock is definitely there. If you don't want to buy from GameStop/didn't pre-order, that's a viable option.
I haven't, but I paid for next-day shipping, so I would think they would be able to ship tomorrow and it still gets to me on Friday. If after tomorrow, there is no movement, then I think you start worrying.
Will any store have in-store LE 3DSs?
I mostly want the Monster Hunter Edition

Don't buy it. Send a message to NoA.
I'm voting with my wallet because of the AC adapter bullshit. I demoed the New 3DS XL at my local Game Stop and was impressed but I'll wait for NoA to get their shit together and include all necessary accessories. My little brother isn't as strong as I am though.
Seems I can't order from Best Buy for in store pick up. I'll have to wander in Friday and hope they have some in stock.
EDIT: Can you get the charging cradle in NA?
Nope.
Not yet, anyway.
I ordered one from Japan about a month ago. I hope it gets here soon.

The packaging is really the reason why. Although I still don't agree with not at least including a coupon for a free adapter.Worthless wait given how the n3ds didn't include it in other territories that were depraved of one with the 3ds xl

Texas? Not long. Other side of the country? At worst 5-10 biz days
So if I order this one off Play Asia it will work? What about the plugin?
EDIT:
This one is for the LL

There's plenty of room in the packaging for a USB charging cable. There's also no reason why they couldn't have just removed the proprietary connection on the new 3DS when they redesigned it. Sony showed that the world won't revolt if you do that.
Damn. I paid $22.99 US for mine.
You need to buy a charger locally but the charging stand should work just fine.

Ive never bought anything from overseas before..with play-asia how long does it take approximately for something to arrive from them to let's say..California..Also, is this charging cradle compatible with a US 3DS XL I know silly question but just want to be sure..they charge 6 bucks for shipping but that is understandable considering where its coming from
I agree on both counts. I mostly meant the normal charger wouldn't fit in the packages.There's plenty of room in the packaging for a USB charging cable. There's also no reason why they couldn't have just removed the proprietary connection on the new 3DS when they redesigned it. Sony showed that the world won't revolt if you do that.
Yep.
Cover Plate No. 12 is really nice.
Here is an image of a felt cover:
There are even glow-in-the-dark...
Makes the fact that NA is never getting it that much worse.
Sony *also* showed what happens when you use proprietary memory cards.
Yeah, $22.99 for mine as well. But P-A will work out to the same with shipping. Or potentially more expensive with an expedited shipping option.
Standard shipping from P-A is unregistered AirMail. So you're looking at at least two weeks before you receive it.
Play-Asia is very reliable, I imported OTO! 1 and 2 from them.That's fine..and they are a reliable site? Never purchased from overseas before..and this charging cradle can work for a US 3DS XL..
Just tried this thing out at Best Buy. The face tracking seems to work pretty well, but it seemed like the 3D would flicker quickly trying to keep focus on the eyes. I didn't like that...

All accessories are region free, so it will work on the new models, but not the old ones since the charge port is located in a different location.
I think the standard shipping does come with tracking.Thanks I appreciate you letting me know..will end up ordering from them(Unless I could find it cheaper somewhere else) since it looks really nice..it only comes in black or other colors too? Do they give tracking info or anything so I can at least track the package
HNNNNGH This is the coolest thing! I'm so pissed we're not getting this in America I HATE YOU Nintendo of America!!
Contact NoA and vent your anger!THE BOOs GLOW?!?!
AHHHHH!!! Damn you, NoA!
Turning off auto brightness eliminates that flicker, at least it has for me.
Not only did we get the 2ds in Europe, we got it with a much better selection of colors than the US. NoA is rather conservative, it seems.I wonder if it's the 2DS's fault we aren't getting the smaller N3DS in NA. I imagine retailers would ve hesitant to give shelf space to a fourth (fifth? I've seen original 3DS's in some stores still) version of essentially the same hardware.
Japan and Euroland didn't get the 2DS, did they?
Hope I can find one of these Friday...doubt it though.
