Nintendo and Microsoft have today teased a new Special Edition 2DS XL revealing an image of the Minecraft Creeper edition handheld console. This exciting new edition is sure to capture the hearts of Minecraft fans with its distinctive Creeper design. Alongside the Minecraft Creeper edition, Nintendo has also unveiled Animal Crossing Amiibo and Mario Kart 7 2DS LL packs in Japan, expanding their lineup of themed consoles.
Special Edition Features and Preinstalled Games
The new special editions follow on from the likes of the Zelda Link Shield version, which was a huge hit among fans. As you would expect, the Minecraft Creeper version comes preinstalled with Minecraft: New Nintendo 3DS Edition, ready to play right out of the box. This means players can dive straight into the block-building fun without any additional downloads or purchases. The Animal Crossing Amiibo edition, on the other hand, offers a delightful experience for fans of the beloved life simulation game, while the Mario Kart 7 pack provides high-speed racing thrills.
Pricing and Availability
Prices for the new special editions start at $144 or 15,980 yen for the Animal Crossing Amiibo and Mario Kart 7 special edition handheld consoles. The Minecraft Creeper edition is priced slightly higher at $153 or 16,980 yen. Unfortunately, these special edition Nintendo game consoles will not be available worldwide and will only be released in select markets. This limited availability might be disappointing for some fans, but it also adds an element of exclusivity to these editions.

Similarly, the Minecraft Creeper edition is expected to become a sought-after item among collectors and Minecraft enthusiasts.
Moreover, these special editions often come with unique packaging and additional goodies that make them even more appealing.
