Man Pikachu's head looks so weird in that design.
Stevey Queen
The Queen of Mimosas
Maybe it's suppose to look like it's Pokemon Rumble Blast counterpart.
Right? But I like it!
this is why I prefer decals because I can apply it so that it's not upside down when opened. Also, not to mention that the XL's camera makes it look like Pikachu has nipples.

I want it now, just so Pikachu will have nipples on my 3DS

I don't like it either. Never been a fan of Pikachu.
Now if they release an X/Y 3DS XL that has a cool design, then I'll get it. Otherwise, sorry Nintendo. I'll stick with my 3DS.

So for those of you who don't know about it, HarmoKnight, a rhythm game by Game Freak, is being released in the US and EU on the 28th this month.
Right now there is a demo for it on the 3DS eshop in the US, and a demo will be coming to EU next week. It's a pretty fun game, and even includes some tracks from the pokemon games.
Ah, also, Pokemon Scramble U will be available in Japan April 24th. Which if you don't know, is similar to the Skylanders in terms of the game uses the NFC with toy figures. The game will come with six standard figures and you can separately purchase one special figure in Pokemon Center stores.
So if and when that game comes to the english speaking countries, I'm sure it'll probably be like Skylanders, with the individual boxes of certain figures and bigger ones with more. If you can't tell, I'm pretty excited for it to be released over here. I enjoyed Skylanders and a Pokemon version makes that billions of times better.
But I'll clarify that they aren't like Skylanders in gameplay, just similar in that they use figures.

I'm not all that keen to buy a pokemon game that requires me to buy pokemon toys. |: I'm 22 years old, it'd be awkward enough trying to find a store that sells them, let alone having to walk up to the check out with pokemon toys.
Buying a My Little Pony toy I thought was pretty back in the G3 days was awkward enough for me... buying pokemon frequently would make my poor little head explode. xD

Guess what I'm not playing? Just a gimmick for money >.>

It's not a gimmick though. =/
NFC has a serious amount of potential. Yeah, they're pretty much ripping off Skylanders and they'll be able to outmarket them with it tenfold as well. But the technology that goes behind it is what is great about it.

I will buy Bidoof that's all
Q's
The game will come with six standard figures
- but isn't the game eShop download?
Can you still get the Pokemon normally buy toppling them over or w/e in game?
I DONT UNDERSTAND DIS **** #####help

It kind of is. They could offer the exact same thing 100% digitally through an in-game store or even for free included in the game. Bundling them with a physical figure when you don't need to is kind of a gimmick IMO.

But then there would be absolutely no point for them to be using the NFC in the pad controller. That's what I'm trying to get at.

Wait, what the heck?
So the game doesn't actually come with any figures, you have to go out and buy them? Since it's exclusively for download. That's dumb. >=/

Wow, it's download only? Welp I know a game I'm never gonna own! |:
The figure looks like crap too. I get that they're trying to match the toys in the games but they could have at least rounded the toys out so they don't look like they got yanked out of a Nintendo 64.

Huh. The toy thing is pretty cool, and it definitely adds an element of uniqueness in a spin-off that I wasn't really sure if they would be able to add new features or not. That being said, I'm not going to own a Wii U any time soon, so I probably won't end up with this game.
