Nintendo held a press event yesterday in New York and announced what we’ve all been dying to hear. The 3DS handheld system will hit store shelves on March 27th, and it will cost $249.99. The device will launch in two colors: “Cosmo Black” and “Aqua Blue,” and will also launch with these titles: Pilot Wings Resort, Nintendogs + Cats, Steel Diver, Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D, and Kid Icarus Uprising.
The handheld will also come with a pre-installed game called Face Raiders, in which you can take photos of your face and add them to a virtual shooting gallery. Who wouldn’t want to do that?
The price is a bit cheaper than what we had originally thought, which is a good thing. With a pretty solid lineup of launch titles as well, the 3DS launch is looking pretty good. What do you think?
