Gotta Catch These Pokemon-Themed New 2DS XL Models


During their latest Nintendo Direct presentation, the company announced two gorgeous New 2DS XL models. With Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon coming out in November 17, there will be a Poke' Ball-themed New 2DS XL available on November 3, that will have trainers drooling at the mouth. There is also a really cute model based on the franchise's mascot Pikachu, but that seems to be a Japanese exclusive for now.

Until Nintendo announces the Pikachu-themed model for international releases, we will have to settle for the Poke' Ball one. To be fair, it is a beautiful model, and one that fans of the series will absolutely adore, but it's hard to match the cuteness factor Pikachu has. Either way, it is nice to see more variations for the New 2DS XL.

This isn't the first time Nintendo made Pokemon-themed versions for their handheld. Fans will remember the Pikachu 3DS XL that had fans everywhere going crazy, pretty much selling out like pancakes. We also saw 3DS models based on the various games like X and Y, as well as the original versions for Sun and Moon.

The Poke' Ball New 2DS XL will be available on November 3, and should be a great holiday present. Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon are slated for a November 17 release.
