By Ishaan Sahdev May 14, 2013

Japan is getting a new Nintendo 3DS colour next month—Metallic Red. The new colour will be released on June 13th for 15,000 yen and will come with a 4GB SD card.

Despite the introduction of the 3DS XL, it looks like Nintendo intend to continue pushing the regular 3DS model as well. Prior to Metallic Red, Nintendo also released Light Blue and Gloss Pink models back in March.
