Nintendo appears to be continuing its trend of giving its 3DS XL cool paint jobs to bundle up. According to a leaked online retailer ad, the upcoming Yoshi's New Island will be the next game to get the bundle treatment. It'll feature a keen green version of the handheld and is said to be priced similarly to the Zelda 3DS XL bundle offered towards the end of 2013.

British retailer Base currently has the Yoshi's New Island bundle listed at £199.99, however IGN has confirmed that the bundle will also be available in North America. It will include the green Yoshi-patterned 3DS XL, along with a pre-installed copy of Yoshi's New Island.

Yoshi's New Island will arrive on March 14, with the bundle expected to be available on the same day.

Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
