which in turn takes nearly all of its assets from the main series.

Look I shouldn't have said anything, I just get this hopeless feeling everytime I see "the usuals" all over everything and none of my favorite characters. Hell I didn't even see a Waluigi amiibo.

They've shown one amiibo.

There's bound to be a Waluigi one soon.

Kinda bummed about no Mewtwo. Oh well, maybe next direct. I also fucking called Tingle, and you doubted me! Still no Skull Kid though, looks like he's been reduced to a costume. Would have easily taken him over Young Link.

Old Mario Party maybe. But nowadays instead of hosts like Star Spirits and Ballyhoo, we get generic Toads.

Meh, it wasn't that exciting, although Codename STEAM and Splatoon kind of perked up my interest.

I like the amiibos and the new info about Mario Party 9, though, but there's nothing to lose sleep over.

>North America is the only region not getting the normal N3ds and therefore no faceplates

nintendo of america continues proving that its the best nintendo branch

i mean, when im going to get a n3ds it was going to be an xl no matter what but not giving the option is classic NoA bullshit

Speaking of classic NoA bullshit,

Different territories make their own business decisions regarding individual products and timing. We think New Nintendo 3DS XL makes the most sense for our market. Nintendo makes different systems at different price points for a whole range of consumers, and New Nintendo 3DS XL simply expands those choices even further.
