Trusting a source who's claims are based on an "anonymous" but "supposedly trusted" tipper can only lead to trouble.

Augmented Reality? 6 AR games bundled? Sounds nice i guess, they are trying to promote AR and showing off what the 3DS is capable of. Also i wish it has a pikmin augmented reality game. (I remember a painting? i think of having pikmin in the real world . IT WOULD BE AWESOME)
EDIT: Price is around expected although what happened to the cool colors, they only said black and aqua, hope they announce more colors soon.
