Japan to get Nintendo 3DS on November 20th?

Thanks to a tweet from a Japanese product designer, we have a new rumored Nintendo 3DS release date, at least for Japan.
Reads the tweet (translated by 3DSblog): "On November 20th, the 11 goods I designed for use with the 3DS will go on sale simultaneously. Those of you buying the 3DS, please buy them while you’re at it! This will be officially announced on the homepage eventually, lol. Best regards."

That designer works for keysfactory, an accessory maker that has built screen protectors, cases and chargers for the DS line.

The date is still speculation for now, but Nintendo has promised to unveil the pricing and release date for the handheld on September 29th.



In the past, Nintendo has released new hardware on Saturdays, so the 20th of November seems even more possible.

The DSi XL was released on Saturday, November 21st, last year.

There was a time when I was against this...but now, I am waiting eagerly for these units to be on ebay for $25 so I can use them for parts.
