While Jonathan Ross talks us through the European launch plans for the Nintendo 3DS in chilly Amsterdam, Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils Aime is doing the exact same, in New York, for the console’s US details.

They know what we’re waiting for, and have wasted no time in revealing the console’s exact price and launch date over in the United States.

The 3DS will launch on March 27th, and will cost you $249.99, and between that date and the E3 Expo later in 2011, 30 games will be released for the device.

We’ll let you know all the European specific information, as soon as its revealled. A quick currency conversion (plus VAT) puts the console at around £180 - but we’ll see.
