Nintendo is breaking out a brand new color for the
Nintendo 3DS later this month, and it will be a bit on the purple side. The 5th color in the series will be called Midnight Purple and will release the same time as
Mario Tennis on May 20th and is a pretty solid color. My son has the Aqua Blue version and loves it. MSRP will be $169.99, but with my daughter being a purple fan, this may wind up as a birthday gift for her later this year especially if we see more of those
$145 sales.
NINTENDO 3DS GETS A ROYAL NEW COLOR ON MAY 20: MIDNIGHT PURPLE
April 30, 2012
Just as lilacs and hyacinth bloom throughout the spring, so too a new color is blooming for the Nintendo 3DS system. Midnight Purple gives the hand-held a royal new look. The new color will launch May 20, the same day Mario Tennis Open becomes available.
The Midnight Purple Nintendo 3DS, offered at a suggested retail price of $169.99 in the United States, becomes the fifth color in the always-stylish Nintendo 3DS color palette, joining Cosmo Black, Aqua Blue, Flame Red and Pearl Pink. Now fans have another option to customize the look of their systems to suit their individual styles and personalities.
Nintendo 3DS lets users enjoy games and videos in 3D without the use of special glasses. Mario Tennis Open adds to the strong library of Nintendo 3DS games, which also includes Super Mario 3D Land, Kid Icarus: Uprising and Spirit Camera: The Cursed Memoir. Fans also can check out 3D videos on Nintendo Video and access new and classic downloadable games in the Nintendo eShop.
Remember that Nintendo 3DS features parental controls that let adults manage the content their children can access. For more information this and other features, visit http://www.nintendo.com/3ds.
