Supposedly they've just gotten flaschards working, so a final solution can't be too far off

really? Damn these people are fast o.O

Its sort of sad that Nintendo needs to release so many colors so early in the consoles life cycle. It worked alright with GameCube and GBA but colors have been used sparingly as of late to boost sales and carry the device. I think the Monster Hunter model is ingenious Sony was famous for creating limited edition versions of the PSP for several games, they do sell and I am glad to see Nintendo embracing this strategy!

Look at X-Box limited edition versions come out with the biggest games like Call Of Duty, Nintendo could likely be successful at shifting millions of units to collectors and fans of certain games. I wonder if Nintendo secured an exclusive CoD or StarWars title and created a limited edition model for the North American market how successful it would be.

I know it was the limited edition Darth Vader PSP that finally convinced me to purchase one. I wonder if an exclusive collectable 3DS model could have the same effect in North America. I wonder how many people will buy the Monster Hunter 3DS and how many would be interested in future third party collector editions in north america?

Don't feed trolls!  No need for Yggdrassil's comment, had nothing to do with MH3 on 3DS.  He's just trying to start something.  Ignore him.

they really need to have color matching attachments....

Really? I just got the impression he was considering selling his 3DS so he could get one of the ones in the OP, how is that trying to start something?

This new 3DS color is damn sexy... i hope for european release Ç_Ç

I hope for a holidays release. I want to buy it and give my existing blue 3DS to my sister.

there is still hope for A mario bundle in November????

hopefully Nintendo can kill them off before they do...R4 is mainly used for piracy.  Piracy is bad for the industry for the whole...not just Nintendo!!!
