In Europe Nintendo is dubbing 13th February as Nintendo 3DS Day, so if you follow the region's Twitter accounts you can expect to see the hashtag used a fair amount. It's a fair enough name for a day that sees the New Nintendo 3DS and various major releases heading into stores and the eShop, in what promises to be a fun weekend for fans of the portable.
Always keen to promote the features should have you considering an update, Nintendo UK has released a new video with five reasons why you should pick up the new hardware. If you're in North America, however, you may not like reason four.
While The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D seems to sell itself, meanwhile, plenty evidently need convincing to dive into Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. In the past 24 hours there have been five videos showing off various aspects of the Capcom title, with more interview snippets, cinematics and in-game footage to enjoy.
Are you hyped about 13th February and the various big-name releases? Let us know.

I would be hyped more if I get my DISPATCH today! Want my system and game!
I would quite like mine to be dispatched today Nintendo seeing as some people already have theirs so excited to play Monster Hunter and Majoras mask
"If you're in North America, however, you may not like reason four."
Nice Dr Zaius reference.
If I were superstitious, I would have picked a different day. Hope everyone gets what they ordered 😀
Man, I just can't look at the small New 3DS anymore without feeling bad for America for not getting it at all. I know several people who won't buy a New 3DS at all. Meanwhile I'm grateful that I live in Europe, and can get a small one.
Concerning Monster Hunter, though.. I tried it on the Wii, 3DS, and Wii U, but I'm afraid it's just not my type of game. I do hope it sells well, though, it's definitely a good game/series!
I'm so excited for Monster Hunter 4! Too bad my order hasn't shipped yet...
Oh haha, Europeans laughing at us Muricans yet again. Rub it in why don't ya?
@AVahne
Reason #4 makes me sulk and weep... ;_;
Sucks that we don't get the normal size new 3DS
@Wouwter
That smile is contagious actually....
@Wouwter LOL
My new 3ds xl majora edition arrives on friday- I am HYPED!!!
we might not have changeable face plates, but we got everything else you boring europeons don't! Like Super Large Triple Honey BBQ Burgers with onions and pickles and Mega Extra Large French Fries with DIET SODA! Ha! take that you starving europeans, Merica
I always knew that 13th Friday cant be bad day.
Now its pretty obvious.
Stop belief in superstition , PEOPLE AWAKE.
(also last two 29th of February are my luckiest days so far)
I was born on a Friday 13th so I consider it a lucky day!
That Poogie plush looks so adorable! I wish I had one. Also I usually consider Friday the 13th my most luckiest days.
@Ootfan98 It seems like Majora's Mask 3D being releases on Friday the 13th was completely intentional. 'Cause of the theme, ya' know?
I honestly wish I could afford one of these because at this point the New 3DS is a modern Nintendo system I actually want to own.
Doesn't mean it's perfect or that many things couldn't be improved in general, like the whole Nintendo account system and the sluggish release of Virtual Console titles a just two examples, but there's so much to get excited about on the New 3DS at this point and the games library is really solid now.
@Mus1cLov3r thank you Sherlock
I would love to join. Too bad I'm not interested in the XL model! -cries-
Ugh...All the new features are amazing, but I'm still shocked at the fact it's £180. It's really annoying, considering the fact that most of the games coming out this month really rub in your face the fact that they will have better control with the C-Stick, better 3D viewing, etc on the new models. Also, why do Nintendo UK always use that same damn annoying music in every video they make?!
Yay, Rathian love.
