Well, I wouldn't want any of those anyway.

"our burning envy"

^ not really lol. I don't really like any of the colors; the only slightly appealing one is the Mario one. And even if I did have one of these, I would feel embarrassed using it in public.

@killerjuice I feel embarrassed pulling it out at all. I miss the time when a game boy could be confused with a pda.

I might feel a tad bit embarrassed pulling out the Peach one, but the other ones are awesome! I'd be likelier to meet a girl to my liking playing with a mushroom-styled 3DS than wielding an all too common iPhone.

Seriously, this. If you find yourself worried about what others might think of you while gaming, something that still has negative connotations with being a man-child, then you might be invested in the wrong hobby, buddy.

Just saiyan.

I just don't care for the colors... and don't care what you guys think about that!

I don't even really want a 3DS (not until Phoenix Wright x Professor Layton, at least), but I want one of those. The mushroom cap one looks awesome.

Wow, I just realized what else a "mushroom cap" styled 3DS might look like...

Why does Nintendo not release this stuff for sale? I would be a proud owner of a 3DS if these were released.

@Yothe production costs I would guess. The 3DS hasn't exactly been flying off the shelves (and with good reason) so making limited edition ones isn't really a great choice in terms of business.

@tmujir955

The production cost on a different exterior case can't be much, if any, different. And as you could sell these as limited editions at $20-$50 more than the standard, I'm sure it would more than compensate for any changes to manufacturing.

People who like pins.

"Who likes pins?"

Same answer.

You'd be amazed. Most of my friends in high school and college go CRAZY over silly pins for web comics and animes. They have their book bags covered in them.

I just realized the mushroom one has a white bottom half. Just like a Mario mushroom. Nice touch.

...It's the little things, you know?

The Mario one is totally awesome. Although I'd like a Link or Samus one.

I though they were just covers, 1000 points seems way too cheap for a brand new 3DS. i have 2000+ points on mine and i've barely got enough for the minor stuff on the EU club Nintendo.

"The 3DSes, named "Peach," "Mario" and "Super Kinoko," natch, are being produced in limited numbers (1,000 each) for Nintendo's "A Little Mario-like 3DS" campaign. Japanese Club Nintendo members who register two games between now and January 15 will be automatically entered to win one of these adorable little 3DSes."

Its a raffle. There are only 100 being produced. They arent 1000 points.

I'd like the mushroom one more if it was the red-and-yellow color scheme of those platforms in Super Mario Bros., it has the same sort of rounded square shape.

I think I would feel really dirty opening up Mario's pants or peaches skirt to play with whats inside.

I think alot of people are missing the point, these are collectors items that most winners arent gonna actually play on, I wouldnt I already have a black 3DS. If I kept it I would never open it and keep it as mint condition as possible. These will sell for hundreds of dollars on Ebay cus theres only 1,000 apiece.
