Japan Gets New Pikachu Themed 3DS in Yellow

Nintendo has announced a new 3DS colour with a twist - a yellow flavour with help from an old friend.

Coming exclusively to the Pokémon Centre in Japan, the Pikachu Yellow 3DS will don your favourite electric mouse on one side, cheery cheeks and all, with his tail spanning the base. The inner part and hinge will be white, according to Andriasang. It includes a white stylus, accessories and will go for the standard ¥18,900 Japanese retail price.

Pre-orders will run from 25 August until 14 September, with the system available September 15 to those who order in advance.
