I don't know if this means anything but the receipt from the preorder calls it >Nintendo 3DSXL AnimalCross LE<
Someone earlier mentioned Newegg has it for preorder.
Nintendo has a page with the steps taken to transfer data between SD Cards. The game/save data will be fine as long as you use it on the same 3DS.
I just preordered it today. This is the game I bought this system for. I can't wait :bouncy:
Yeah, mine told me that no GameStops in the district sold or traded them anymore. You should still check around your area though. A GS in the next city had a white one in great condition.
Amazon says the Platinum version will be released on January 12, 2010. I actually bought Fable 2 at that price this past Monday, but after I learned about the Platinum version from another user, I decided to return it and wait a few months.
