Monster Hunter 4 has been a bit of a triumph since its release in Japan, surpassing three million sales already and in the process easily hitting Capcom's targets. It's been a positive for Nintendo, too, as it can cite the substantial success of a third-party exclusive on the 3DS.
It's certainly been a strong partnership between the two companies, with Nintendo outfits featuring in the title and two rather delicious 3DS XL models being released alongside the game. Early success has merely emboldened the partners, it seems, as the standard 3DS design above is to be released in the region on 7th November, price at 19,800 yen (just over $200 / £125). It'll include a 4GB SD card (rather than the 2GB storage typically offered with the original model) and a download copy of the game.
It seems like a smart idea ahead of the Winter's busy shopping season, and certainly won't do the impressive sales of the title any harm; do you like this design?

I prefer this design over the two XL models if I'm honest.
I prefer the black XL but this is ferly cool shame we will probbly never see it (UK/EU & US)
Looks fantastic, and it's quite cheap!
I still like the XL better.
Golly, that Dambuster sure is quotable.
i like it, what would be better is if the game came with it in the west
Didn't the west just get 3G/3U not that long ago. You couldn't have finished it so fast as to be that frustrated with a wait for a release announcement for this one.
Anyway, this model looks really awesome, but I've already a place in my heart and money in my next paycheck for the black 3dsLL.
Personally, I wouldn't buy this model since its not the xl. I already own the original 3ds but will purchase the xl when a good bundle comes my way. The Animal Crossing one didn't do it for me. So I'm patiently waiting for the Zelda themed xl or the MH xl. Either one comes stateside on am on it day 1.
Still prefer the Zelda Xl,but still looks very nice.
I like how this 3DS looks. Hopefully it comes to the west.
I would trade my black 3ds in for this if it were to head west.
We'd best get some acknowledgement by March, methinks. A year after 3 Ultimate's release seems a proper time to gear everyone up for MH4.
Looking sexy.
SHAGARU MAGARA!
@Tsuchinoko We got 3U in December of 2012
Never really liked the light blue colour for the 3DS standard and xl so I wouldn't get this even if I could (I do like the stencil though).
grrr....
I need like this over here in 'murrica please.
@shigulicious
My thoughts exactly.
Nice!
