Yoshi's New Island 3DS XL Bundle Release Date Confirmed by Nintendo for March 14 (PICTURE)

Nintendo finally confirmed their long rumored Yoshi Edition 3DS XL bundle will be launching on March 14.

The Yoshi themed handheld will be lime green with a picture of Yoshi and an egg etched into the bottom left corner of the 3DS XL. According to Polygon, the handheld will have another string of Yoshi eggs in the back as well and only be $199.99. That is the normal price of the console, and yet includes the game Yoshi's New Island.

The bundle was originally leaked on a British website a few weeks ago.

The game is a sequel to 1995's Super Nintendo classic, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, and will be headed by the same creator Takashi Tezuka.

Being first revealed at E3 2013, the game will have similar art direction as the other game with backgrounds that look childish and drawn on. Baby Mario will again be on Yoshi's back, and he will try his best to protect him from enemies.

The same egg aiming and throwing mechanic is back along with the floating jump of Yoshi. Most importantly is Yoshi's long chameleon like tongue, on which he grab enemies and converts them to eggs.

Yoshi's of different colors are seen throughout the trailer, and a new giant egg is possible when Yoshi eats an enemy much larger than himself.
