My guess is it is to let everyone know the release is just around the corner and they don't want to rush the release.of course
i really can't wait for the soon to be made Announcement,i just want to see what they have to say about this ULTRA delay now that the N3DS console is out in all regions.
Intersting
After reading the last page though I still can't believe a N3DS shipped with 9.4
That is very weird
Take a look at this thread.
