Gamers Can Now Pre-Order the Limited Edition Red DSi XL

You lucky people in Europe.

_{AHH! SPICY PEPPERS}

and yet, still no news of America getting virtually ANYTHING for Mario's 25th anniversary! Time is running out and with every passing day our chnaces of getting some kind of treat get less and less likely...

These promotional consoles aren't for Nintendo fans. most of them (myself included) already have a DSi/XL or Wii.

Rather, I think of them more for first time buyers - or those that buy a DSi when they've already got one (because it's red and has a mario transfer on it) despite the vastly superior 3DS being just around the corner.

ARRRRRRGH!! Japan and Europe ALWAYS get the good stuff while we get a crappy website!

What do we get? Nothing but a website.

Hope this comes out hear in the us Nintendo!

This looks really cool but I'd rather have a red 3DS instead.

yay looks like america is getting the shaft again

@DiggerandIndy

Yes, in hardware it's true what you're saying, but America and Japan always get the good games first...

Ontopic: I'm gonna get the red DSi XL! I'm just hoping it isn't sold out in a week, I don't have all the money right now so...

I've been wanting a DSi XL, so this is the one I'm getting. I love my DSi, but I'd like bigger screens. And for that reason alone the 3DS doesn't appeal to me at all. The bottom screen on the on the 3DS is smaller than the DSi, which is a huge let down to me.

This is a little off-topic, but has anyone else noticed that you hardly ever use the Mega Mushroom in NSMB?

@11. (LuWiiGi) I've never noticed that. But now that I think about it, I almost never use it.... You might wanna make a Fourm about this instead of doing it in the comments.

Is it Mega Mushrooms that make Marion so big in those screen shots?

What about the collectors? they will buy this and the Red-Wii, Come on NoA announce some thing. I don't Live in Amercia but I'm into fairness and at the moment it's not quite fair, hopefully Nintendo will announce some thing soon.

...I'd rather they not be released in the US since its doubtful NOA will allow content transfers from current DSi/Wii customers to those new units. There's no excuse to say those don't appeal to the die-hards/core audience. /selfishness

They'll most likely be released in the holidays, specifically as a special bundle available at retail locations on Black Friday through Christmas. At least, that's been the trend over the last many years I worked in video game retail, I'd be very surprised if they didn't release them.

Come on Nintendo, get this to America, even if the red Wii can't atleast give us SOMETHING. Sorry, but a website with a video and a few interviews which almost no one is going to read doesn't cut it.

@Paperlucario: Last I checked, they are bringing this to America, so...

...and yea, told you so.

C'mon Nintendo, now let us transfer data from DSi to DSi XL, so I can buy this too.
