Remember when we showed you the poster from HMV that showcased the 3DS XL with two circle pads? HMV has finally released a statement.

"It's apparent this was just one particular store being a little over-enthusiastic - and the poster has been removed. If it's caused anyone any issues then we're sorry, but I'd say it doesn't take much to work out this doesn't represent the company's retail offer for this release."

A mistake, just as we thought. I wonder how many people were duped into a preorder because of that poster.
