Are you moving there permanently? Because if not, I still don't see the point. If you wanted to play any games on it in the future you'd have to import.

I do have a family member living there(gonna see them for a bit), so they can just buy me games and send them to me for free!

What if they don't want to buy yoh it EVERY time you fancy a game? :x
I'd be more wondering about shipping charges
unless they don't mind getting the game months later, those could rack up very fast depending on how much stuff they wanted

I buy stuff from Japan all the time haha. I think depending on the shipping such as SAL or EMS, it would be around $15 - $20 USD or more. Also keep note of the source you are buying it from, prices may have quite a difference.

Depending on the country you're in and if you're lucky or not, there may also be a customs charge though.
It quickly adds up to a game that's way too expensive, and also in a strange language (assuming Izzy doesn't know Japanese).
Not sure why people are so against Izzy buying the New 3DS. They could always buy their games on the eShop to save on import fees. lol
There are plenty of people that own Japanese consoles and games without actually knowing the language- It's when they go in without expecting region lock and later complaining about how their NA/EU (etc) games are incompatible with the system.
Tl;dr Izzy doesn't have to explain their decision. Let them spend their money as they please.

No one is against it, we are allowed to ask why and give our opinion when they post it on the line on a forum
Same, which is why I brought it up.
Hell, almost all my non-living expenses are from imported goods. Which I've been importing for the past 5+ years or so, so it's made shipping (and in the cases I need to use them, proxy service) charges pretty easy for me to estimate for the items and tell when it could go too expensive for its own good even before the billed total. Exception to Amazon Japan orders, since they use a set calculation that's based on the number and type of item(s) you order and not the weight of the package.
and on that note, EMS bulk orders the best imo

After all the limited edition older models (XL's and the like), I can't help but feel a little sad about how far behind they'll now be...
I guess I'll be swapping my little red 3ds for a New 3ds and my AC:NL XL for the New XL...Ugh, no. I can't do that. Not my XL ;.;
I hope they change the 'new' name when it comes over to america, something less...abyssal XD.

Yeah, nothing was confirmed. They just said "2015". I'd rather it be early 2015 though.

It'll be summer 2015 because ACNL was supposed to be "first half of 2015" and it was ****in' June
what does ACNL have to do with this?
though summer would make sense, if only for people having more free time for games

I think it'd be sooner than summer, isn't it due out next month for Japan? I think we could expect March-ish for NA/Euro.
Technically 7th/14th June is the first halfof the year :x

Opps yes I forgot about this. I was thinking about common countries such as America, and we don't usually have custom charges where I live so I forgot. My apologizes.

Are ZL & ZR buttons really necessary? Let's at least use the D-pad first... ;; The weirdest thing about it is that the power button is at the bottom of the system.
Yay! Start and select are back! They're actually more useful there, ufufu
- Can move files between 3DS and PC via Wi-Fi; HELLO.
Now that I look more closely at it, it's like it took all of the good parts of the DS and the 3DS and smashed them together to make the ultimate 3DS.
I *sniffle* need it, too... My 3DS is an aging little relic who doesn't have delicious swappable covers. I need to be the envy of the playground!
