Nintendo announced today the latest colour for the Nintendo 3DS XL will hit stores next week and the newest colour will be basic black.

On August 11th, Nintendo is releasing a black version of the Nintendo 3DS XL hand-held system, joining the currently available range of colors: blue, red and pink.

The system will launch on the same day as the latest Nintendo 3DS game: Mario & Luigi: Dream Team. Fans that pick up a new black system or already own a Nintendo 3DS can also play the exciting new entry in the much-loved Mario & Luigi role-playing series.

I have a purple 3DS to match my trusty purple Game Boy Color. Will you be upgrading to the XL when it hits store shelves on the 11th?
