Nintendo 3DS Gets Circle Pad Pro Add-on in Europe Next January

Nintendo has confirmed that European 3DS owners will be able to get the Circle Pad Pro add-on for their device on January 27, 2012.

The Nintendo 3DS wasn’t exactly a huge success, but things are getting a lot of better, as the Japanese company registered massive sales throughout recent months, with Black Friday really managing to improve its sales figures.

Now, the company is getting ready to upgrade its 3DS through the Circle Pad Pro add-on, which is set to appear in Europe on January 27, both as a standalone peripheral as well as in the form of a bundle alongside Resident Evil: Revelations, the new survival horror title from Capcom.

Pricing has yet to be revealed, and Nintendo isn’t clear on when the Circle Pad add-on will reach North American shores.
