Xenoblade Chronicles 3D arrives in Europe on 2nd April, and naturally we've been hoping that the rad New Nintendo 3DS cover plates would make it out of Japan; it was clearly a no-brainer, as Nintendo of Europe has announced just that.
As you can see in the tweet below Nintendo's even used a Vine, which is cute.
We're not even going to pretend to be neutral with these plates and just say that we're really chuffed (and feeling it) with the news they're coming to Europe. Really, just look at them.
Thanks to RupeeClock for the heads up.

Sigh....
At least I have a MM one here in the US......
Well I'll be! I don't have to import this now. Excellent!
Ugh.
That and Majora's Mask are the only good ones in my opinion. Still love my Monster Hunter XL more. No finger prints visible either!
I'll be getting these. They'll be my first plate pick-ups other than the ones my Ambassador Edition came with.
That looks awesome.
dont... annonce a New 3DS XL Xenoblade eddition... im still freeking wating for my Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate New 3DS XL to tern up..........
Hurray for Nintendo thinking NA is stupid! We'll never get to see these
They look better with the black system. I might get them for display, but wont be using them on my white system much.
Maybe they will release a Limited Edition Xenoblade New 3DS XL for all you Americans
I'd be excited for those if NoA released the standard-sized New Nintendo 3DS here. Because they didn't for some of the most inane reasons I've ever heard, I will be forever disappointed.
Now, I love Nintendo with all my heart and I will continue to support them, but this is by far one of the biggest disappointments of all time, in my opinion.
I hate it when they announce them but you can't actually pre-order or buy them yet.
insert more complaints about NOA here
This looks amazing, but as much as I hating on not having that design in the states. I'm just not interested in it. I know NL is gonna let me know when that exclusive xl version comes out.
Yeah Limited Edition Xenoblade XL will make sense in the US.
I'm still waiting for this
But...but..........but.....sword.....
-Unpriviledged North American
@outburst I hope they do but at the same time, I already got my new XL! Ugh...
That's good for Europe. I hope we get the Regular size New 3DS here later this year in America. I don't think the cover plates would ever be release here if they did release the Regular size here. Well at least its coming to Europe now, this means it may be cheaper to import it.
I'm willing to bet a lot of money that NA will get the smaller model at some point. Most definitely. It's inevitible
I think I'll be getting these. I was counting they will realease that beautiful triforce Zelda cover plates but Xenoblade looks also super cool.
I think i'll be importing these for my imported JP New 3DS that I imported.....sigh...to be an American...
On another thought, I finally got my JP New 3DS and holy fark it's NICE. REALLY NICE. They're finally at the level of the Vita Slim, which is also VERY nice.
Now I see why NoA didn't want to bring it over. It's just so nice and they don't feel like we deserve it. Instead, something more toy-like in feel and appearance like the XL would probably save them more money.
@ikki5
I know, right?!
@ottospooky
I really, really hope so . . .
@ROBLOGNICK yeah same here. I wanna pre order one along with the game but even amazon don't have either listed. Pity
They look SO SEXY!
Please NOA don't release a Xenoblade Limited Edition N3DSXL. I'll be pissed for buying day one.
Hyped as heck for XC 3d, for my precious beautiful MM XL.
Looks pretty cool on that black 3DS and I was never even interested in the cover plates.
Still can't help but wish they chose some of the lovely artwork used for the game packaging, but I'm glad this is still coming. I feared it would be a while when they announced the next wave was April, and this one wasn't there.
So pretty, love that Xenoblade !
