3DS Circle Pad Is GameStop Exclusive

3DS Circle Pad Is GameStop Exclusive

None

For all of you just waiting to snap up a circle pad add-on, there’s some good news and bad news. The good news is that the 3DS circle pad add-on is in fact coming to North America. The bad news is that it will be shipped in limited quantities, and will only be available at GameStop.

Yes, the 3DS Circle Pad Pro will be a GameStop exclusive. It will be sold at a twenty-dollar price point and will be sold alongside Resident Evil: Revelations. The Circle Pad also has functionality with Kingdom Hearts 3D, Dynasty Warriors Vs., and Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D. However, with the pad itself being a GameStop exclusive, you have to wonder if Nintendo will be pushing circle pad support much further.



If this peripheral is going to be absolutely necessary for particular games, then Nintendo’s decision to make the pad a GameStop exclusive seems like it could be a bad decision.
