Everyone would love to be at the top of things, in terms of favorable rankings and the ilk. After all, it just goes to show the world that you have worked hard to earn that spot right at the pinnacle, but I suppose that the hardest thing to do would be to maintain one’s performance in order to remain there. If you think that you are one of the top Pokemon trainers in the world, then you ought to have the “tools of the trade”, so to speak, to reflect that self imposed stature.

Unique Nintendo 3DS Tells The World You’re A Pokemon Master original content from Ubergizmo.

As everyone knows by now, Nintendo needs to sell anything they can since the Wii U has sold so terribly for them. So to get more sales in general, and to promote the release of Yoshi’s New Island, Nintendo is releasing a new, special edition Yoshi-branded Nintendo 3DS XL.

However, the special-edition portable doesn’t come with the game, even though the box is so heavily branded with Yoshi artwork. No, they want you to buy both the game and the 3DS separately.

Yoshi’s New Island releases the same day as the lime green 3DS XL. March 14. The special edition 3DS XL retails for $199(USD) price and there doesn’t seem to be an alternate option that comes bundled with the game. Smooth move, Nintendo.

Please buy the game and the console. Help a struggling gaming company who has made all of the wrong moves for years. Have a heart. Keep mild cartoon violence alive in video games. Otherwise they might have a telethon soon or one of those sad animal commercials with Sarah Mclachlan. Or maybe they’ll just smarten up and start selling their games on iOS and Android – when dinosaurs fly.

The Monster Hunter franchise is one that has garnered a fair number of fans over the years, where the game is huge in Japan itself. In fact, we might just be in the second month of 2014, but this does not mean that there is no reason not to look forward to 2015, since Monster Hunter 4 has been destined to arrive in the West next year. The Monster Hunter cash cow has plenty of milk left in it – or so it seems, since both Capcom and Nintendo have come together to announce the impending release of a special Monster Hunter 4 Nintendo 3DS XL that has the nickname “Rajang Gold.”
