According to North American retailers such as Target (http://www.target.com/p/nintendo-3ds-nfc-reader-writer-accessory/-/A-23937309) and Best Buy (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/nintendo-nfc-reader-writer-for-nintendo-3ds-multi/4288800.p?id=bb4288800&skuId=4288800), the accessory will arrive in that territory on 25th September where it goes for $19.99 (about £13).
The peripheral will require two double A batteries.
New Nintendo 3DS includes the NFC function, so this accessory is only for older models of Nintendo's handheld devices - i.e. 3DS, 3DS XL and 2DS.
