3DS Circle Pad add-on up for pre-order in Japan
Japanese pre-orders have opened for the 3DS’s Monster Hunter 3G-centric second circle pad attachment. The peripheral goes on sale on December 10 alongside the new game, and fetches ¥1,500 – about $20.
Still no word from Nintendo as to when we’ll see the add-on in the West, although Capcom has hinted it will localise Monster Hunter 3G.
Thanks, Engadget.

Nintendo has told Kotaku the rumoured second-circle pad accessory for the 3DS is absolutely real.
