New Nintendo 3DS Happy Home Designer system bundle launching in North America, no word on XL bundle

9 years ago 9 Comments

Nintendo announced a new Nintendo 3DS system bundle for Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer today at the annual GameStop Managers Conference in Las Vegas.

The new Nintendo 3DS Happy Home Designer system bundle contains a white new Nintendo 3DS system, a digital copy of Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer, two sets of Animal Crossing cover plates, and a bonus Animal Crossing amiibo card.

The bundle will retail for $219.99 in the United States on September 25th alongside the launch of Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer. Orders are open now at GameStop and Amazon for the console bundle.

Nintendo of Canada has confirmed to us that the bundle will release for $269.99 in Canada. Orders are open now at Amazon or Best Buy.

Here are images of the two cover plate sets included in the bundle:

Notably, this marks the first time that the regular sized new Nintendo 3DS comes to North America. Previously, only the XL version has been available in the region, so it’s nice to see that amended.

Strangely, there’s no word on the new Nintendo 3DS XL Happy Home Designer edition in today’s announcements, so it’s looking like that system may not be making a release in North America unfortunately. Of course we’ll keep you up to date if that changes soon.

Other announcements at the GameStop Managers Conference include the Hyrule Edition new Nintendo 3DS XL system launching exclusively at GameStop on October 30th for $199.99 celebrating the launch of The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes on October 23rd.

Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer launches in North America in less than a month from now on September 25th, and Europe on October 2nd! Check out our release date countdown here, or pre-order the game and accessories here.
