Nintendo will soon release a new 'Midnight Purple' 3DS in America, major US retailer Sam's Club would have you believe.

If a purple 3DS sounds like your kind of style, hold off picking one up for a few weeks.
Nintendo recently released an important 3DS firmware update (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/345060/3ds-system-update-now-live-adds-patch-support/) which adds folder functionality to the home screen, and support for game patches/updates.
