New Nintendo 3DS gets another colorful option added to its roster!

NCL has announced plans for special cover plates, which will be released alongside Xenoblade Chronicles 3D in Japan.

The New Nintendo 3DS covers have a glossy look and bright red color to boot. The set features the well known Monado blade, which plays a key roll in Xenoblade Chronicles. To underline this weapon's strength, the covers also have a single line of text, which reads: "Power of Monado."

These new covers will be released alongside Xenoblade Chronicles 3D in Japan on April 2. Europe is getting the game a day later, and North Americans will have to wait an additional week. Sadly, there are currently no plans to release the covers outside of Japan.

Salt in the wounds. And the salt is the tears of NA fans which Nintendo loves to torment.

I wonder if there will be a Xenoblade special edition in North America?  I'm usually not a fan of decorative systems, but that might entice me to upgrade my 3DS.  (You know... if stock actually exists without the usual 15 minute during the middle of a working day, online-only preorder window that NoA seems to prefer lately.)
