Limited Edition Zelda and Luigi 3DS XL's announced for Europe

Nintendo will release two new 3DS XL models across Europe this November, the company has announced.

The first machine, which is themed around long-suffering sidekick Luigi, will be released on November 1 and will be available exclusively on the Nintendo store. The handheld console is coloured white, and dotted with silhouettes of Luigi in various shades of green.

On November 22, Nintendo will release a Limited Edition 3DS XL to tie-in to the release of The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. The machine sports a Triforce on the top and bottom of the console, with the top half coloured gold and the bottom in black. When opened, the machine mirrors the two Triforces seen in the game's logo.

Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds console also includes an eShop code for a copy of the game.

The company did not mention a RRP for either console.

Earlier today Nintendo announced that UK retailer Game would be offering a miniature Zelda treasure chest to customers preordering A Link Between Worlds.
