New Nintendo 3DS gets a Monado Faceplate

New nintendo 3ds Monado faceplate

With Xenoblade Chronicles 3D releasing for the New Nintendo 3DS in just a couple of months, Nintendo of Japan announced that a faceplate inspired by the game’s Monado weapon will be on sale starting April 2nd.

Unfortunately, only those who have the regular New Nintendo 3DS can use the upcoming faceplate. While the game is coming in North America on April 10 and with no sight of the regular New Nintendo 3DS, it’s best not to expect that it’s coming – unless you have an imported Japanese/European New Nintendo 3DS.

The Xenoblade Chronicles’ Monado faceplate will retail for 2,000 Yen. Don’t forget, Xenoblade Chronicles 3D will be out in North America on April 10. Check back with us near the release date for our review.
