Nintendo are releasing a new colour variant for the Nintendo 3DS in Japan: “Flare Red”.

The Flare Red model will be released on July 14th, alongside the release of Star Fox 64 3D.

Additionally, Nintendo are also introducing a new Wii package in Japan, consisting of two Wii Remote Plus controllers instead of one.

The price of the new Wii package will remain the same as the existing one, and Wii Sports Resort will continue to be included in it. Nintendo say that they hope to reinvigorate the 3DS and Wii markets with the introduction of these new packages.
