The official Pokemon facebook are teasing that Pikachu related info will be announced tomorrow. Considering the recent showing of the limited edition Pikachu 3DS in an American commercial of Pokemon mystery dungeon, it could very well be that it is getting released overseas. For the video see below.

Great.  There's money I'm so tempted to waste.

Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh. I'm not really a fan of buying entire new 3DS just because of designs. Wishful thinking time, but what if they were teasing yet another new game? 

That Pikachu 3DS never released in America? Weird it has been out in Europe for ages now.

If it is the Pikachu 3DS XL than it will be good to see NOA bringing it over to the states. It should increase 3DS hardware sales.

I actually need a 3DS LL since the original 3DS screen is little bit small

 

But I prefer the CHARIZARD 3DS that they've shown before

It is indeed the Pikachu 3DS XL. Some retailers have already gotten their shipments and are it will be released on March 24th, the same day as the mystery dungeon game where it was seen in a commercial for. The official announcement will be tomorrow. An image is also leaked:

They just confirmed it. No word on a PAL release yet.

Pokémon fans will get a jolt of excitement when Nintendo releases the Pikachu Edition Nintendo 3DS XL hand-held system on March 24. This bold yellow Nintendo 3DS XL hardware features a familiar outline of the iconic Pokémon. The system also comes packaged with a 4GB SD memory card and will be available while supplies last at a suggested retail price of $199.99.

Yeah that one looks great as well. I hope that comes to NA too.

Small update:

Target is actually having it for 160$ compared to other retailers 200$. Quite a lower price that should get them some good sales.
