Luigi edition Nintendo 3DS LL gives Mario's brother his due, but only in Japan

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><div class="copy post-body" dir="ltr" itemprop="text" style="text-align: left;"> <div class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="Nintendo 3DS LL Luigi edition" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/04/luigi3dsxl619pxhedimg.jpg" /></div>There must be some kind of unstated rule that Nintendo can never give the US a special edition handheld without releasing some Japan-focused models. While the company was busy promising Americans an <em>Animal Crossing</em> 3DS XL of their very own, it was also introducing a Luigi edition 3DS LL for its home country as part of its "Year of Luigi" theme -- not fair, Nintendo. The system is decked out in a camouflage-like pattern that pays tribute to Mario's oft-neglected sibling, and it should ship with a preloaded copy of <em>Mario and Luigi: Dream Team</em> just to drive the point home. Local gamers will get the distinctly-patterned 3DS LL on June 18th, but there's no word on an XL equivalent for the US so far. We'll just have to make do with Mario-colored devices instead.<br /> </div></div>
