Aside from the new 3DS, it also showed two pictures of games that are supposedly coming out on the same date, Zelda and Monster Hunter Ultimate for 3DS.

It will be called, New Nintendo 3DS XL. And quoting Gamespot, "yes, that's really the name." Even though the company was not that innovative on giving it a new name, it is expected to have more power than previously released 3DSs.

It has an analog nub, added ZR and ZL buttons and overall color. There are two colors available: red and black.

One NeoGAF user even emphasized the feature about the color. Isitstill posted, "Why isn't it white and why aren't the buttons colored?!?"

Meanwhile, the poster was released a day before Nintendo's schedulere Direct video panel. The event would highlight Nintendo's plans for 2015 including multiple releases of 3DS and Wii U games. This is also the suspected event where they will launch the New Nintendo 3DS XL.

New Nintendo 3DS XL will be on sale on Feb. 13, but pre-orders are already availabe in the U.S.
