This week's Nintendo Direct revealed that we're getting a rather snazzy new 2DS XL design based on a PokéBall, but - as is often the case - Japan is getting an exclusive model which is even better.
On November 17th, Japanese gamers will not only have the chance to purchase the aforementioned PokéBall 2DS, but (if they have any sense), they will also buy a console with Pikachu's friendly face on it, complete with a small rounded bump for the nose.
Is that not the most adorable 2DS XL you've ever seen?

I much prefer the Pokéball version.
I think it's too bright.
Naah man, prefer the Pokéball.
Aaah...
Kawaii desu.
I like both of them.
Get out of here! The Liquid Metal Slime is still the king!
Yuck.
Want both but prefer the Pokeball one.
Personally I'm not a fan of these 2DS XL models - any of them - but I much prefer the Pokeball variation here compared with the slightly saccharine Pikachu edition.
Ha! Not my cup of tea but shame when you are playing it the face would be upside down.
So many Pikachu systems. I wonder if Switch will get a Pikachu edition for 2018?
This is great for those that haven't bought a 3ds yet in 2017 for these bargain prices
.... I don't need it.
I don't need it.
Definitely don't need it.
I...
... don't...
... oh squidge it, I said the same about the last Pikachu LE 3DS XL and it's sitting in my room now. >___>
Why do Nintendo still insist on putting the lid graphic / design upside down? They've been doing it since 3DS launched. It's infuriating.
I don't understand the brown trim/buttons, isn't Pikachu usually yellow with black?
Edit: Turns out he has brown stripes on his back. Who knew? Oh, everyone but me....
The Pikachu 3DS XL with the Camera nipples was better.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE
How could you so yucky for those Kawaii items ??
Where is your love for Nintendo ?
@Anti-Matter Probably died long time ago.
Best? I think that's a matter of opinion. Yech.
@Anti-Matter It's Pukemon. I have no love for that franchise or that rodent.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE You're a real ray of sunshine.
@Stryker89 Thanks, I try.
I would rather have the Pokeball one too!
I still have the 3DS XL with that design. But they left the tail off this one!

I like both, but I prefer the Pokeball design. The only time that Red beats Yellow for me is when I'm comparing the two Gen 1 games.
Bought a 2ds xl 2 days ago then they announced the Pokeball version dammit.
Huge Pikachu fan here, but this particular design isn't my cup of tea. There are cutest pikachu 3ds out there
Seriously?? Pokeball version looks better. I hate Pikachu.
This would be perfect to get from a collectors stand point but as far as practicality and aesthetics its horrible. Pikachu is so over rated and tiring.
They are continually diverting resources to making multiple versions of the DS systems.
@ROBLOGNICK Yes I agree with you & it is a bit irritating TBH.
I have the Solgaleo/Lunala New 3DS XL myself.
This may be a stupid question but will the 2ds xl pikachu edition be able to use english language?
