The 3DS will launch at retail outlets across America from March 27th, Nintendo has confirmed.
Shoppers will have to part with $249 for the innovative handheld, which has around thirty games set for release at launch window.
In the UK the price is varied, though a listing on HMV’s website put the device at 229.
