Those lucky Europeans are about to get something really special courtesy of Nintendo.
Apparently they will be the EXCLUSIVE recipients of transparent 2DS skins. This means for the nosy gamer who wants to see exactly how their 2DS works, now they’ll know.
The transparent models are expected to go on sale in Europe on November 7th, and will come in red and blue versions.
The color choice isn’t a mere coincidence, either.
Depending on the color of the model, the buyer will get either Pokemon Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire included as part of a bundle.
The games are said to come pre-installed on the devices in a 4GB memory card.
Nintendo fans in the UK can expect for demo versions of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire to arrive on October 15th.

To try it out, they can get codes from Nintendo, Amazon, GAME, and ShopTo.
As for the transparent 3DS models, it’s not yet known what the exact price is for these special versions of the Nintendo game.
Previous 2DS standalones were priced at about £110 or roughly $180. It could be that these new transparent models are priced in the $200 dollar range.
There is no word yet as to whether or not the transparent red and blue versions of the Nintendo 2DS with the bundled Pokemon games will be released in the United States at some point.

Nintendo fans located stateside can only look on and hope for the best.
Personally, I think I’d prefer it if Nintendo would be kind enough to make available the limited-edition Poke-themed 3DS that coincides with the release of Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby.
These products come with suede faceplates featuring a Pokemon design. How cool is that? They are said to cost around $177.
Hopefully Nintendo will be kind enough to give their American fans something just as awesome in the near future.
