The special edition Zelda-themed 3DS XL and A Link Between Worlds (digital copy) bundle, a bundle which appears to be selling quite quickly in Japan, has finally been confirmed for North American release, by Eiji Aonuma himself no less. The package was announced to be coming to Europe a little while ago, and GameStop even advertised it stateside about two weeks ago, but until now Nintendo of America had never stepped forward to give the official confirmation.

The confirmation can be found in a video uploaded to Nintendo’s YouTube channel in which you’ll see Aonuma make the declaration.

Head past the jump to see the video.

It’s official, the Gold-and-Black Nintendo 3DS XL that comes bundled with a copy of A Link Between Worlds is on its way to America. While it was previously rumored and was seen in a GameStop advertisement, it now comes straight from Nintendo. The special console will retail at $219.99 and it will come bundled with a digital download copy of A Link Between Worlds. One side of the console comes in Gold, with the other side being in Black to…

Despite it being the series’ country of origin, The Legend of Zelda really isn’t all the big in Japan when compared with Zelda‘s western audience. For whatever reason, European and American fans just seem to like the games more. But that reality hasn’t stopped A Link Between Worlds‘ 3DS XL bundle from selling incredibly fast in Japan. According to “Nintendo Treat,” 700 bundles went live on Amazon Japan, and within five minutes, every one of them was sold.

Two days ago, a leaked GameStop ad announced that the previously PAL-exclusive A Link Between Worlds 3DS bundle will be coming to North America. Now there’s a rumor that the bundle, which packages a charming black and gold 3DS XL with Link’s latest  handheld adventure, will only be sold at GameStop on Black Friday, according to a guy on Twitter’s anonymous source. Find out more about this admittedly questionable rumor after the jump.

*Update* GameStop has confirmed the ad is real, meaning the ALBW 3DS bundle will come stateside, but Nintendo still says they have nothing to announce at this moment.

Well folks, it is now time to open your checkbooks if you live in the United States, because the Limited Edition A Link Between Worlds 3DS XL is making its way here. Of course, leave it to Nintendo to not say a damn word about it, but thankfully GameStop is doing all the talking for them. In a recent advertisement for November Black Friday sales at GameStop, the bundle is being sold for a whopping $219.99. Well worth it considering you get the limited edition 3DS XL and A Link Between Worlds (digital version). Getting this console personally would also round out my current generation Zelda collectors items – as I also have special edition GamePad to boot. That and this design is way slicker than the original Zelda special edition 3DS that was sold with Ocarina of Time 3D.

Still don’t believe this is true? Well then, head inside because we have the ad on full display for you.

Don’t be too surprised those of you in Europe, but it seems Nintendo may have let it slip a tad early that GAME would be offering a special Zelda chest for pre-ordering A Link Between Worlds. According to the retailer GAME on Twitter, the store has no pre-orders ready for announcement at the moment, but do have something special coming soon.

“You may have seen last night @NintendoUK tweeted about a pre-order chest item for The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. We have no pre-order bonus to announce BUT you can be sure we’re working with Din, Nayru & Farore to bring you something special… Until then, feast your eyes on this special LoZ: A Link Between Worlds

#3DSXL available to pre-order tomorrow!”

It seems a bit counter-intuitive to deny something that was officially announced by Nintendo, especially when the pre-order bonus is on GAME Spain’s

website. But good news is there for Australian fans of Zelda as EB Games will be offering the chest as a nice bonus to those who pre-order A Link Between Worlds.

Today, Nintendo of Europe has announced that a Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds-themed 3DS XL is coming to Europe, and it looks gorgeous. The bundle will include a download code for the game to be redeemed in the eShop, and will be released on the 22nd of November, coinciding with the release of the standalone version of the game.

It was also announced that if you pre-order with the UK retailers GAME, you’ll receive a musical toy chest.

There’s no word on a worldwide release date as of yet, but we’ll be sure to keep you updated if new information comes to light!
