Nintendo America made several big (and concise) announcements for Xenoblade Chronicles 3D coming to the New Nintendo 3DS. 

Xenoblade Chronicles 3D will be released on April 10th and include some new features that were not previously mentioned. The game will incorporate StreetPass, which allows players to earn in-game tokens that can be spent to unlock music and new character models. In addition, Xenoblade Chronicles 3D will have amiibo support, where the Shulk amiibo will also earn tokens.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3D is still slated for release in Europe on April 2nd.

My Opinion:
This game is a major reason why I’m tempted to get a New Nintendo 3DS. The announced release date for North America is great, and it’s nice to see some modifications that utilize the 3DS’s features. Time will tell if I actually bite the bullet and get the system and/or game.
