Mad Catz is delighted to be complimenting the launch of this exciting new handheld with a range of high quality, licensed accessories which we believe enhance the gaming experience and will prove invaluable to gamers everywhere.”
With this announcement, I am now drawing even more to thinking the 3DS launch date is just right around the corner, so I would say now that we got some of the awesome accessories to clean and wrap our 3DS’ in, but now we just need the actual system. Of course no date was given for any of these products to be released so this is ultimately another tease until then, but my anticipation has now peaked for the device that is sure to be a huge draw for all gamers sometime this year. Either way it is good to see Mad Catz on top of things right from the get go with these products and at affordable prices as well.
