New details are now available for the Hori Duraflexi Clear Protector and Grip for New Nintendo 3DS XL. The shell has been officially licensed by Nintendo. You can find the current price tag for the handheld accessory with this page from Amazon. A photo of the protector has also been placed below this paragraph.
The Duraflexi Clear Protector from Hori has two functions. First, it protects the system from dirt and scratches as it is made of flexible TPU material. It will also provide extra grip if you find that the New Nintendo 3DS XL is too slippery. The protector is clear, so it won’t block out any of the imprints of the Monster Hunter or The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask special edition systems.
The protector is releasing on the 16th of February, which is three days after the U.S. launch of the New Nintendo 3DS XL. The new hardware revision of the 3DS is coming out on the 13th of February with Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate and The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask as launch games. If you are looking for some extra protection to go along with the new version of the 3DS, you should take a look at the Duraflexi Clear Protector.
