Nintendo has announced that their new 3DS XL Circle Pad Pro which has been exclusively available only in Japan since its launch, will now be arriving in the US tomorrow and will be available to purchase for $20.
The 3DS XL Circle Pad Pro is the second iteration of Nintendo’s supplemental analog stick, and follows on from the original GameStop-exclusive Circle Pad Pro made available alongside Resident Evil: Revelations.
“The Nintendo 3DS XL Circle Pad Pro is a comfortable cradle that holds the Nintendo 3DS XL system while adding an analog Circle Pad on the system’s right side. The attachment also adds additional shoulder buttons to give it a feel more akin to traditional console controllers.
It is designed as an optional accessory and is compatible with select titles, including Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Resident Evil Revelations, Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance], METAL GEAR SOLID 3D Snake Eater, and Kid Icarus: Uprising. Note: The Nintendo 3DS XL Circle Pad Pro is not compatible with the Nintendo 3DS.”
The 3DS XL Circle Pad Pro is now available to purchase from the Nintendo store for $19.99.
