Original (9/13): Nintendo has announced a special New 3DS XL system inspired by Pokemon Sun/Moon for North America. On October 28, fans will be able to purchase the new design for $199.99. Neither of the new Pokemon games will be pre-installed, meaning you’ll need to pick up the games separately.

Nintendo of America’s senior VP of sales and marketing Doug Bowser said of today’s news:

“This year marks the 20th anniversary of the beloved Pokémon series and people have never been talking about Pokémon more. Playing Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon on this new Pokémon system is the best way for fans to show their love for this iconic series.”

Pokemon Sun/Moon both launch on November 18. A Pokemon Sun/Moon Dual Pack will also be available at retailers (separate from the Amazon-exclusive steelbook edition).
