Update: Bumped to the top. Systems are back in stock… for now.

It’s looking like the New 3DS won’t be heading west for awhile. While the system is heading to Japan on October 11 – less than two months – North America and Europe won’t be seeing it until 2015.

Thankfully, there are ways to purchase the New 3DS even if you’re not in Japan. Playasia has now opened pre-orders at the following links:

New 3DS LL Blue
New 3DS XL Black
New 3DS Black
New 3DS White

Of course, since these are Japanese systems, they will only play Japanese games. But if you’re like me, you might be pretty tempted to pick up a New 3DS at launch…
