New Nintendo 3DS color revealed - Ice White

Man, Nintendo's going crazy with colors and this one's the best so far. Really want this one but still plan on waiting a year especially when Wii U's coming out.
 
I like it. I think I'll go for this color if/when I get a 3DS.

I hope the Wii U has this many color choices. Midnight Blue or Jet Black would be ace.

The hell is that weird shell around your wii? They make system condoms too?

is there a shell around his wii? I don't see anything... maybe it's just the reflections?
 
abstract alien said:
Yeah, maybe its just the reflection. It just seems a little off and a bit thicker than usual.

OH, I see it now. It looks like there is a box around it because of the reflections.

Edit: I can't unsee it, lol.
 
I still don't like the black face panel. People are right, though, this is the only color besides Cosmo Black that will actually mesh well with the 3DS's clusterfuck of multicolored LEDs and gray circle pad.

Black face panel is less intrusive on Cosmo Black. Still waiting for the white Vita to resurface.

I don't think the black face panel is going anywhere. I believe it's because of the 3D.
 
Well, I'm glad they announced this now, because if the 3DS transfer feature was going to be activated in the November update I likely would have had a red 3DS by year's end.

Now I can just hopefully wait for this guy.
 
The black/white reminds me of

I wonder if black buttons/circle pad would look good with the Ice White?
 
Fuck, looks so good :(! Don't announce purple!!! I don't have money for another 3DS! Not now, Nintendo, please!

Flame Red got released in North America. No word on pink or white though...

Ideally I'll be able to pick up the White, transfer the stuff from my Aqua Blue 3DS, and then trade the Aqua Blue into Amazon for my girlfriend's Pink 3DS.

I wouldn't be surprised to see White & Pink released in the US around the time of the Vita's launch.
 
...Wait.
Mario launches on the 3rd November in Japan.
...Ruh roh.
 
Oh goodie. I was set to buy a Japanese Flame Red 3DS (so I can actually play Japanese 3DS games) but now I think I'll wait for this one.

Ice is transparent, not white.
Transparent is not a colour.
If you put red colouring in water, it would still be water.
If you freeze it, it would be red ice, and still transparent.
Water on its own is colourless — I assume that's what you meant by transparent.
But yeah, ice and white don't really go together.
 
Damn, looks so nice! :)

Damn! :O

Now they need a new color for December with Mario Kart/Monster Hunter. XD

how do you transfer? usb to pc and back?
Transfer what? Games is 3DS to 3DS; though the option is not active yet.
Stuff in the SD Card = Copy/Paste (everything) on the computer. But games are tied to the unit, so to transfer games is only unit-to-unit.
 
Well shit, now I want white.
No way to transfer the Activity Log info is there?

On second thought, I'll wait for the white version with second stick.
