New Nintendo 3DS - Kyary Pamyu Pamyu in the mix!

Mario and Kyary Pamyu Pamyu (Kiriko Takemura) in the very same video. Who would have guess that 1 year ago?

My Japanese ain't exactly top notch. But thanks to a Japanese reader of ours, we was informed about Nintendos new commercial ad for New Nintendo 3DS. A ad that just happens to star the famous Japanese pop star "Kyary Pamyu Pamyu" (she´s probablymost well-known for her song "Ponponpon").

And there´s both a price and release date for the new Nintendo 3DS as well. Both for the XL and normal edition. In Japan the consoles will be released on the 11th of October. Australia will get the new 3DS consoles on November the 21th.

There´s no release date for EU or the US at this time though (at least not to my knowledge). But i guess that a early 2015 release doesn't sound too far fetched? And btw, i have added the launch prices for the consoles down below.

So, will you guys buy the new Nintendo 3DS on the release day?

New Nintendo 3DS:
¥16.000 (about $150 + taxes)

New Nintendo 3DS XL:
¥18.900 (about $172 + taxes)
