Update: In addition to the below news, Nintendo UK have in fact hinted at a sub-£200 pricing for the 3DS. Marketing manager James Honeywell had this to say when speaking to ElectricPig - via Kotaku:
"Price, we haven't made any kind of announcement at the moment, but for everyone who already knows, you know, the Nintendo DSi is available for around £129.99. The Nintendo DSi XL, with the larger screens, is around £159.99. So obviously, it's going to fit, kind of, somewhere within that kind of architecture."
Original: Nintendo are set to announced the release details, including pricing of the Nintendo 3DS on September 29, according to Bloomberg Japan.
The 3D-minus-the-stupid-glasses device was unveiled at the E3 conference last month, launch plans are set to be revealed next month, after the site spoke to company spokesman Yasushi Hiroshi Minagawa.
Expect an early 2011 release, we would say. Don't however, rule out a surprise Christmas launch in order to scare Sony and Microsoft's plans for their motion sensing peripherals.
Thanks, VG247.
