Major news: New Nintendo Direct launching on Nov. 21 in Australia.
Xenoblade Chronicles: 2015.

 

[Benzychenz]

This is legitimately shocking.

Nintendo Australia only got onto social media a couple months ago and now they're doing Directs?!

Edit: Whoa shit we're getting the New 3DS in November?! FUCK YESSSSS

[friskykillface]

[cw_sasuke]

Or you could just the EU directs and add another 3 months to every release date.


Edit:

WTF....new 3DS ?

Thats a PAL 3DS right ? With the PAL eShop ?

 

[SmokeMaxX]

I bet even Nintendo of Australia will get better stuff than Nintendo of America.

 

[DooD1234]

Now drop a NA Nintendo Direct out of nowhere.

What seriously? N3DS in November for Australians? And we Americans have to wait til next year?

 

[malikhaing_bayag]

Australia gets N3DS before NA and Europe!! Megaton!!

 

[Shaanyboi]

Holy shit, Australia. Gettin dat New 3DS in like two months!

 

[Coffee Dog]

As an american who wants the New 3DS, what the hell, Australia?

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

[guybrushfreeman]

Wait what?! November?? Yeeessss. I already love you new Australian direct guy.

Edit: Tom Enoki. Our new Australian Nintendo direct guy is Tom Enoki. Hi Tom!

 

[Zeyphersan]

As an american who wants the New 3DS, what the hell, Australia?

For real. This is America dammit, we earn the right to get right first*!

*after Japan

 

[Nintendojitsu]

Legitimate shock.

 

[matrix-cat]

Holy shit, a Nintendo thing that comes out in Australia before everywhere else? And we get Directs now?

Maybe we'll actually start getting some fucking games on the Eshop or something!

 

[HIR0]

Wow! New 3ds 21st November 2014!
Based Enoki

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Nintendo don't fuck around with the Directs.

 

[Vibranium]

New 3DS releasing November 21st in Aus/NZ.

Reggie's exclusive reaction:

 

[Dmax3901]

Holy fucking shit. I won't be getting a New 3DS but we get it before everyone else? Wow!

 

[Rubixcuba]

Nintendo of Australia ! YES FINALLY DELIVERS

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

Australia getting something before NA/EU? interesting.

 

[Shockhog]

Wow, Nintendo's throwing Australia quite a nice bone this year.

I suspect new 3DS will hit the rest of the world in February or March.

 

[Shaanyboi]

Nintendo of Australia = best NOA?

Spoiler

nah... but damn son, I'm really jealous!

 

[RM8]

Does Australia have its own region? Because if not, then EU people can import this, right?

I'm jealous anyway Congrats, Australia!

 

[DAREALGUMMY]

................




We better get a Direct here filled with games Australia will never get.

Spoiler

I want a New 3DS

 

[XDDX]

Pricing:

 

[ZeroX03]

Fuck YES. Day ONE.

Looks like we get the white N3DS too. Exactly what I wanted. Based Nintendo of Australia. Never thought I'd say that.

 

[cw_sasuke]

n3DS was probably planned to launch wordwide this year - but the amount of unsold old 3DS/XL stock in the market right now forced them to delay the launch to 2015 and use the holiday season to clear the stock.

 

[DICKS AHOY]

BOW TO YOUR NEW KANGAROO AND KIWI OVERLORDS

 

[RM8]

That's like $2600 MXN for the best model. Not bad at all! We're going to get a much worse price in Mehicko.

 

[Nanashrew]

This is huge news!

 

[Nintendojitsu]

Nintendo of Australia = best NOA?

Spoiler

nah... but damn son, I'm really jealous!

No question about it.

 

[Mistle]

Australia Megaton!

I'm so happy haha, new 3DS this year!

No black regular though? Tbh that was the one I had my eye on. Ah well.

 

[salromano]

Xenoblade 3DS confirmed for 2015 in NZ and Australia.

 

[Novocaine]

Haha really? I'm surprised Nintendo Australia know what the internet is. You still have to call their support desk if you want to order parts/accessories from them.

(PS: they might still have Gamecube component cables if you're lucky)

 

[zeromcd73]

Australia wining m8

 

[Richie]

Not only Australia gets its own Directs now, they're getting the New 3DS earlier than either America or Europe?!

Holy....

Can't wait for EatChildren to see this

 

[Vibranium]

Congrats to Aussies though, good for you guys. I suppose we'll just have to wait here in NA.

 

[cw_sasuke]

Pricing:

The XL is like 175 Euros - is this a PAL system, with a PAL eShop ? Might import it

 

[botty]

Nintendo of America must be holding a lot of shit back for their next Direct...

 

[ZeroX03]

The XL is like 175 Euros - is this a PAL system, with a PAL eShop ? Might import it

Yes you can import it, my Australian 3DS has a UK eShop. Everything is compatible, but you'd need a UK charger (which they sell separately there, yeah?).

 

[batrush]

Wow.

 

[Kyzon]

What??? I'm jelly

 

[Tsunamo]

I could get used to these Nintendo Australia megatons.
Nice price for the New 3DS too, means i'll pick it up in November for sure.

 

[Kageshinzo]

I bet even Nintendo of Australia will get better stuff than Nintendo of America.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Nintendo AUS to Reggie:

That's not a Direct...

THIS is a Direct.
