FUCK YOU GAMEFREAK
Why do Europe and Japan get these, while we only get some shitty plastic fucking faceplates? What did North America ever do to be Game Freak's redheaded stepchild?
>>
>>24991092
>implying you actually care
>>
>>24991115
I do care. I would much rather have a special Pokemon 2DS than a regular 3DS with plastic attachments to go onto it.
>>
>>24991092
>What did North America ever do to be Game Freak's redheaded stepchild?

Nuke Japan. Twice.
>>
>>24991120
Agreed.
The N3DS and 3DS suck balls anyway.
>>
>>24991130
apparently 2 weren't enough
>>
>>24991092
Cry me a fucking river. Europe gets shafted so often by Nintendo (like the recently discontinued Nintendo Club points thing. America got games, figures, all sorts of cool shit, whereas Europe got DSi points and some fuckawful wrapping paper). It's time we got something cool.

Holy banter, Batman!

They deserve to be nuked again.

>at the cost of a regular 3DS XL

Who cares.
>>
>>24991136
you guys got better stuff than we did too, all we got were stickers, booklets and Virtual Console games
>>
>>24991160
But that's better than yoshi wrapping paper and a DS lite case. That's literally all we had, apart from some downloadable wallpapers.
>>
>>24991136
The EU Club Nintendo was lightyears ahead of the US one, anon. We got OSTs, statues and other cool shit while they got literal shit.
>>
>>24991167
are we talking the same Club Nintendo? I could have sworn you guys got a bunch of nice stuff before it shut down.
>>
>>24991092
But you get 2 games with it.
>>
>>24991181
We got Mario Kart trophies, a Luigi's Mansion 2 diorama, lots of OSTs such as Super Mario 3D World's, A Link Between Worlds' and Mario Kart 8's and more. The JP Club Nintendo was still miles better, but it was nothing like that anon described.
>>
>>24991182
So? Why would I ever want both? The differences between Red and Blue don't warrant this. Not to mention that anyone can download them.
>>
Be thankful we're finally getting the n3DS without having to buy Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer.

And what the hell do I need both Red and Blue for? I don't think it'll let you trade with yourself.
>>
Are we even getting the RBY Mew voucher?
>>
>>24991194
>>24991200
Would you really rather have a blue pack that only comes with blue and the blastoise plates and a red pack that only comes with red and the charizard plates? They're just trying to make sure you get what you want, and I'm honestly surprised they didn't split it up to get collectors and autists to buy two.
>>
>>24991207
It's just that I don't think both games coming with it justifies the fact that it's just a white New 3DS with shitty eBay-tier faceplates.
>>
>>24991207
How about just including a download voucher to get either of the games?
>>
>>24991207
They could have, I dunno, let you download whichever version you wanted and thrown in some of the other VC Pokemon games as an extra instead of just giving you two copies of the same game.
>>
>>24991120
There's nothing special about the 2DSs, you do know that right?
>>
>>24991296
theyre cheaper and much cuter <:3c
>>
>>24991296
They're large enough you can actually hold them without needing tweezers.
>>
Why anyone would willingly want a 2DS is beyond me
>>
>>24991170
Only at times. That stuff would go out of stock in a week and never return. It was only on the final months of Club Nintendo EU did it actually get really good stuff.
>>
>>24991296
For one, they are special - the colors, style, and buttons are different than ones you can buy separately. In addition, they come included with small collectible items that while not hugely valuable, would be nice considering it's the entire purpose of this set.
>>
>>24991136
>America got games, figures
You mean shoelaces, a screensaver, greeting cards, and Cooking with Mr Hand?
>>
>>24991130
That's not a good enough reason for Japan to purposefully neglect America like that though.

NIGGER IT'S FUCKING SEE THROUGH. SEE THROUGH!!
>>
I'm fucking pissed. I really want the yellow one but reigon locking is some bullshit since I'm gonna sell my new 3ds xl for the inevitable next handheld
>>
>>24991905
If you can manage homebrew then you can make the console region-free.
>>
>>24991920
They might ship out with 10.4 though.
>>
>>24991966
I doubt 10.4 will fix all hax for all time.
>>
>>24991981
Being potentially locked out of playing your games isn't worth getting a cool colored handheld.
>>
>>24991092
We can still buy it, yeah? Ship a UK version to the states?
>>
>>24992010
You could, but the 3DS is region locked, so you'd be dependent on hax to play games.
>>
>>24992010
You'd have to buy EUR games to play though, or use the e-shop (or homebrew the region free app).

>People bitching about not getting transparent 2DSs alongside Red/Blue's VC release.

It's your own damn fault for not picking the Crystal Red/Blue versions back in November 2014, you know...

>>24992181

Blame big-box retailers, they complained to Nintendo about having to keep track of a massive amount of special-edition DS/DS Lite/DSi SKUs and that caused Nintendo to release fewer special edition 3DS/2DS/N3DS bundles.
>>
>>24991092
I don't care.
>>
>>24992181
The whole idea behind the n3ds faceplates was that special edition systems would largely be a thing of the past. Then they fucked it up by only releasing it in the states as a special edition system.
>>
>>24992198
that's disappointing. retailers seem to manage with other console's special editions and bundles-- xbox one had like 6 for this holiday alone; nintendo should have made it seasonal I guess.

I guess not getting my desired DS should be routine to me at this point after I got the regular turquoise DS because it seemed like the PokePark DS had no chance to come to the US; but lo and behold it came 6 months later
>>
>>24991092

North america Sucks thats why !!
>>
So you get either a shitty transparent plastic from 2005 2DS or the game cover pasted on the removable faceplates.

Why would you fucks want either of these things?
>>
>>24992910
That yellow one will actually be worth money. Everything else is trash.
>>
>>24992910
I've wanted a n3DS for a while now. This is a much better alternative to the Animal Crossing one.
>>
>we only get some shitty plastic fucking faceplates?
Why would we even be getting that?
I thought the faceplates weren't for the New 3DS XL, the only one North America got for some reason?
>>
I hate the design of the 2DS so I'm perfectly fine with this.
>>
>>24992955
NA got a regular sized 3DS with happy home designer and that's it

The smaller model has been available in the US for a while as a bundle with the Animal Crossing spin-off, Happy Home Designer.
This is the new bundle just announced, again with the smaller model.

Actually, you get a single expensive bundle with two sets of shitty faceplates and both versions of the game for no real reason.

We get 3 cheap console bundles and two sets of faceplates on top of the two sets of Pokemon plates we already have (translucent Groudon & Kyogre and Pikachu)
>>
>>24992983
Oh, and we've had a black N3DS available since launch last year while you guys are stuck with white.
