The Pikachu Edition New 3DS XL was originally announced for Japan. However, Play-Asia now has it up for pre-order, and the unit the retailer is selling is U.S. compatible. That means it’s essentially like making a purchase at GameStop or Best Buy.
If you’re unsure about what’s happening here as Nintendo never “announced” the Pikachu Edition New 3DS XL for North America, there’s a simple explanation. The system will be sold in Singapore, and uses the U.S. unit as its base.
You can order the Pikachu Edition New 3DS XL on Play-Asia here if interested.

Back in September, it was revealed that Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden and One Piece: Great Pirate Colosseum would be receiving special updates to allow for cross-play. We can now say this is now available for the two games.
After applying the update, Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden and One Piece: Great Pirate Colosseum players can battle against each other. Online and local play are both supported.
One important note: Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden players can only choose characters from the Dragon Ball series, and vice versa for One Piece: Great Pirate Colosseum.
