Update: These colors are for the original 3DS. Sorry for the confusion!

Two new 3DS color variations are making their way to Japan. On March 20, the country will be receiving the “Light Blue” and “Gloss Pink” hardware models. Each will be available for 15,000 yen.

Thus far, all Japanese 3DS systems have come with a 2GB SD card. Nintendo will be packing in a 4GB card for the Light Blue and Gloss Pink releases.

A couple of photos of the new colors are posted above.

LEGO City: Undercover will have a lot for players to see and do. Executive producer Loz Doyle estimates that it’ll take players 40-50 hours to complete everything.

There are so many vehicles, characters and missions. There’s so much content in the game already – you’re talking 40-50 hours to get 100%, it’s difficult to imagine what we could put in. We wouldn’t rule it out, but it’d have to be the right thing to fit with the rest of the game.

…Initially in the San Francisco area at the start of the game you’re really focused on the story, but as you get more abilities you’ll see things that had locked icons before that you couldn’t use, and now you can. That’ll encourage you to explore and use those different game mechanics and abilities.

LEGO City truly packs in a massive amount of content. Players will be able to ride many different vehicles, collect different items, take advantage of an array of costumes, and more.

Capcom has been notorious for its boxart screwups in recent years. There was the “Resident Evil: Revelaitons” spelling error. And don’t forget the IGN watermark on Okami Wii’s box!

But Capcom isn’t alone. Other companies mess up boxarts as well – like Namco Bandai. The publisher is just a week away from launching Naruto Powerful Shippuden, though appears to have incorrectly spelled the game’s title.

Take a look at a photo of the 3DS box:

Something tells me that Namco Bandai meant “Naruto”…

A majority of THQ’s most-popular IPs have found new homes. There are some franchises, however, that have yet to be auctioned off.

By mid-May, THQ hopes to complete the bidding and sale process of numerous IPs that remain such as Darksiders and Red Faction.

Here’s the full listing:

• Darksiders;
• Red Faction;
• Homeworld;
• MX;
• Other Owned Software, including Big Beach Sports, Destroy All Humans!, Summoner, and more; and
• Other Licensed Software, including Marvel Super Hero, Supreme Commander, Worms, and more.

Initial bids are required to be submitted before April 1, while final bids are due by April 15. THQ says it will “determine the best and highest bid for each lot and designate a back-up bid. In May, the sales will be presented to the Court for final approval.”

THQ expects “a vigorous sale” of its various IP as it “has received more than 100 expressions of interest in purchasing various titles”.
