Pink System Available as Standalone Item, Ideal for Lovers Says Nintendo
Nintendo of America has the perfect gift for winning over your Valentine. From February 10, a Pearl Pink edition of the Nintendo 3DS system will be available to purchase outside of a bundle for around the $169.99 mark.
Nintendo, being the crafty cupid that it is, has even suggested more than a few ways in which to get the most romantic use out of their newly-acquired 3DS system:
- With the system’s built-in camera, sweethearts can each use their system to capture and share 3D photos and videos of romantic outings this Valentine’s Day – and always.
- The new Swapnote application, which is available for download from the Nintendo eShop at no cost, lets users create and send customized 3D love notes to their sweethearts from their Nintendo 3DS.
- The adorable virtual pets in the nintendogs + cats game can bring out players’ sweet side and make great portable companions on those lonely days when they’re apart.
- Users can share creative passion with their beloved by playing downloadable games such as Pushmo and Freakyforms: Your Creations, Alive!, both available from the Nintendo eShop, and by exchanging QR codes to show off their heartfelt handiwork.
- The multiplayer modes in the Mario Kart 7 game invite players to get their hearts and their karts racing on a wild array of 3D Mario-themed courses.
Clever marketing or heartfelt cause to get lovers together? If someone treats us to a 3DS system, even in pearl pink, we’ll happily agree that it’s most certainly the latter.
