Nintendo is launching a pair of transparent 2DS systems in Europe tomorrow. It appears that there are plans to bring the same handheld to North America, but only in blue.

A leaked ad from Target confirms that the “2DS Crystal” will be available on November 16. You’ll be able to purchase it on release day for $100 ($30 in savings).

Although an official announcement about the new 2DS variation has yet to be made for North America, we’ll probably hear something within the next few days.
