Nintendo will finally launch its New Nintendo 3DS and 3DS XL in Europe on 13th February, the company has announced. Both versions feature a new C-button for dual-analogue control, improved 3D and built-in NFC compatibility to communicate with Amiibos. There's a slight power upgrade to both as well, allowing for smoother gameplay, faster system load times and ability to play a number of games which will be New 3DS-exclusive, the first of which will be a port of Wii role-player Xenoblade Chronicles. The news, announced today in this afternoon's Nintendo Direct broadcast, has been a long time coming. The updated designs launched first in Japan and Australia before Christmas.
