I love Smash and I'm glad most of you love it, but this thing is hideous imo, lol.

Damn, I don't think my wallet can handle such awesomeness! O_O

P.S. I have more than $2,000 stored in my safe so I can still afford it. xD

Man, I would buy that! BUT, I like my Blue 3DSXL and I rather have a physical copy of the game. :\

I actually find this really aesthetically pleasing and "tasteful" - moreso than any special 3DS I've seen N' release anyway. I'd prefer if there were no smash logo at all - even better if the entire back area was covered in wall-to-wall black and white character art. But it's nice as is.

That all said, I'm sticking with my blue 3DS xl, for the afore-mentioned sticker-on-binder phenomenon. (Age has nothing to do with it, but it's been a good 16 years since I even had a binder to decorate with stickers, and I feel no burning desire to revisit that bit of nostalgia.)

I want to buy this, as I was considering upgrading to an XL anyway. Now I have even more reason to.

I just need news on what other retailers are doing this, if any. The Nintendo UK Store does not ship to the Republic of Ireland, which is ****in' crap because they ship to Northern Ireland. It's literally all the same tiny land mass and it's not like there are any restrictions on them for getting stuff down a few counties.

The ONLY reason why I did not buy a 3DS XL so far (and stuck with my 4 year old normal 3DS) is because I was waiting for THIS!
A Smash-themed one with the game pre-installed and a cool motif :3

The design certainly met my expectations, but hopefully it will have some special decoration/emblems elsewhere too and not just the backside of the top screen (if the front sides of the 3DS are in one single color like simple red then I will be disappointed)

Still I'm definitely buying it :D

THIS is the reason why I was holding back from buying a 3DS.

3DS XL Smash Bros 4 3DS bunde! Looks awesome! I'm getting this!
Hope there's a Wii U equivalent of this as well!

GAME might ship there. It looks like they will also be holding bundles (but no shirt)

Can someone who's played the 3DS version answer me this? Does the game's controls use both L and R shoulder buttons, or are they both shield?

My L shoulder button is busted and I really don't want to have to get a new 3DS if I don't have too.

I already have a 3DS of my own. So I'm content. But that one is pretty awesome.

From what I have seen on videos, the game uses the L button to grab. The R button is used to shield.
Anyways, that Smash 3DS XL looks really cool.

Default controls have L as Grab, R as Shield

If it were a white, blue, or green 3DS I'd buy it for sure. Digital copies suck tho.

Yes, I will buy if it comes to the states.

I already have a original 3DS but I have been wanting to upgrade for a while and this seems like it would be a good time.

I personally like the design, but I think I would rather have one with a just a Smash logo on it.

Uhm, I don't like the design, it would be better a simpler one, like the smash logo...

Anyway, it's a good opportunity for those who doesn't have a 3ds already or want to upgrade to XL

I would buy one, but honestly this design doesn't excite me. Hopefully we get a different one in the states.

But seriously, that right there is the reason I'd buy that 3DS for Smash. It'd better be available here or..........I...........I'll shake my fist violently at the sky!
