Looks Like That Red 3DS is Releasing in Japan

I think I'll stick with Cosmos Black 3DS, but more colours is always a good thing.

man when will a green 3ds be released

...Well, I mean I kinda saw this coming....but....FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU- internet connection dies out

Please oh please come to the states.

@zeldaman: The "Aqua Blue" one is quite green

this should have been a launch color, really. its based on the logo itself.
they should have launched a trio

then launch another trio, green, purple and platinum.
i remember that good ol gameboy color. the selection was huge, you just didnt knew which one to pick !

That's it! Thats the colour I wanted. Oh well I'll just have to sell my black one when the red on is finally released in the UK.

Flare Red looks better than Cosmo Black, but Aqua Blue is still my favorite.

_{I wish they had purple at launch. D:}

They should save the red for special occasions.

I'm happy with the Aqua Blue, but nice to see they're offering more choices.

I'll probably pick up a 3DS again when this color comes out here just as long as it is accompanied by a $50 price drop.

Damn it. ><

jealousy... rising...

My DS Lite is the "Enamel Navy" one exclusive to Japan, which I imported for quite a premium. Too bad about that region-locking, eh.

This would've been my second choice after yellow had the two colors been available at launch.

Just looking at the picture, red 3DS totally "makes sense" from a designer's view.

I bet it will be at least bundled with one of the mario games in US and Europe.

See, red is my favorite color, but I would never get a red 3DS, as it makes it look too much like a toy, the black makes it look fancy and expensive.

>.< red is my favorite color!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but i already bought a black one at launch cries

if i buy the red one when it comes out i'll have two. then i'll probably be the coolest dude in the world. do want.

they should make a matte model, the glossy one is to...well, glossy.

come on purple! purple by holiday season please

A red one for Japan and a silver one for the US.

please release before the end of june in the uk please nintendo

i doubt that will happen though

I WANT THIS

So, basically....

Early adopters really got shafted this time, didn't they?

yellow is my favorite and black my second, which pretty much sums up the priority of colors with me. Red just isn't my bag, baby

" ... handily addressing the 12th reason for why Japan has held out on buying a 3DS yet."

Hilarious. I had forgotten all about that!

I likes my blue one, but red is neat.

@Teh-Ray: It happens all the time with consoles, etc. (I think iPads were the same). New colours get released later on to draw in new customers, which is bad luck if current owners want one of the new colours.

I want to see that purple on I've seen some photos of come out. That looked great!

Eh. I still love my Cosmo Black one. Couldn't be happier with the color.

Has it ever been a good idea to adopt early? I wait until all the kinks are known.

Red does look nice, but I prefer black.

Frankly, I want my transparent colors back (like the ones used for N64 and GBC/GBA). Those were way too cool for school. I want one of every controller ever made in Atomic Purple.

That´s the one colour I would´ve like to have the most. I went and bought the blue one. Should´ve bought the black one instead, since the blue turned out to be quite hideous in live.

This is one of the things keeping me from buying a 3DS, just hope it comes to the West, or i might never get one. Also I was afraid of the Red 3DS having that terrible looking Black top screen. That completely defeats the purpose of having a Red one. Half the time you will be looking at Black! Just because it helps with the "3D", not for me, I want a Red 3DS that is Red. But it'll have to do.

@Flameking1087: You're too late about being the coolest dude for having two 3DS consoles, because I already made plans to get a second console once additional colours became available (I'm sorry, Cosmos Black, but you're just not working for me...Aqua Blue and 'Flare Red' FTW!!)

I find the colour on the hinge a bit annoying so close to the screens. I wish the colour was just on the shell, and the inner faces, hinge include were all black. Which is why Igo tthe black one.

I hope the purple/lilac one will be released before I have to buy a 3DS. That's my favorite color of the ones shown last year.

This news made me rejoice, and then immediately remember that the 3DS is region locked. >:{

WHY!?! Why won't they just release all colors at launch!??!!?

I must admit, I like this color better but I'm not paying for it when I have a blue one that I like. I plan to keep my blue 3DS until it breaks.

Nah, this won't make me regret getting a Cosmo Black at launch.

I'm sticking with black, but black llight purple is pretty sweet.

I want it, i want it, i want it... Make it an american release too

/me reads @zeldaman's comment.
/me wonders why people ask questions of "when" when the when hasn't been announced. (Let alone that there /will/ be a green 3DS.

They are so lucky, I wanted the red one, but opted to the black we can't get the red one here.

I like "Aqua Blue" better.
