An employee from the peripheral manufacturer, KeysFactory, has claimed that the Nintendo 3DS might hit the streets on November 11, via his twitter account. Takahiro Amano, tweeted the following information, which was then picked up and translated courtesy of Kotaku:

“On November 20, eleven 3DS products that we designed will go on sale all at once. People who are buying the 3DS, buy it at the same time! There will be more details on our home page.”

Nintendo has stated that it will announce the official release date and price on September 29. No word on when we can expect the 3DS in America, as Nintendo’s American branch has simply claimed early 2011.

The Nintendo 3DS was originally announced in March, and was then showed off at E3, where we had the chance to see it in action. Ever since, speculation on the price and release has been rampant.

The man responsible for the tweet has since deleted his post, and the company has denied that it knows the exact release date. We will have to wait until the 29th to know who is telling the truth.

Sony INZONE H3 gaming headphones wired for Prime Big Deal Days

As far as Prime Big Deal Days discounts go, this next one on Sony's Official INZONE H3 gaming headphones is pretty shocking. Why? It's 52% off which is a huge discount anyway, but Sony's gear rarely goes on sale. If you want immersive gaming via a wired connection, spatial surround, low-latency audio, and a snug fit, these headphones are right for you. Normally $100, they're on sale today for just $48. It's only a limited-time deal, though, which means it could go away at any time. Don't wait.

 
Why shop this Sony INZONE H3 gaming headphones deal for Prime Big Deal Days?
We've covered Sony's INZONE gaming headsets before, as well as the Sony INZONE gaming earbuds and one thing we've certainly taken away from these products is they are standouts in their class. You get to experience immersive 360-degree spatial sound while playing. You benefit from crystal-clear communication thanks to the headset with a flip-to-mute mic. Plus, there's virtually no latency, if at all, thanks to the 3.5mm wired connection.
