The recently announced Zelda 25th Anniversary 3DS is coming to North America, a source confirmed to Kotaku.

The special edition 3DS was first announced for Europe, with no confirmation as to whether or not other regions would receive the special edition 3DS and Ocarina of Time 3DS bundle. However, a Black Friday flyer for GameStop revealed that the bundle was coming, though it wasn't known if it was a nationwide release or a GameStop exclusive.

The bundle includes a black 3DS with Zelda themed gold decals and a a copy of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D. The GameStop flyer has the system priced at $99.99 when you trade in a DS system. The price of the bundle by itself has yet to be fully revealed.

UPDATE: Nintendo has officially confirmed the release of this bundle, as well as a Super Mario 3D Land bundle. Arriving just in time for Thanksgiving Day sales, the two bundles have been officially priced at $199.99. The Super Mario 3D Land bundle includes a Flame Red 3DS and a copy of the game.

So this is going to be available in every region except Japan?
People, remember this next time you complain that some cool limited edition system doesn't come out anywhere except Japan!  ;)

I like the Zelda one. I'd keep it as a collector's item. Unfortunately, I just don't have the cash for that.

These bundles are hardy surprising. Really smart of Nintendo. The bundles make perfect gifts.

Only ten dollars off? Usually the bundles offer more of a savings.

Not with DS bundles, it didn't. Sometimes you didn't save ANY money.
