3DS Circle Pad Pro Out on February 7, Will Be GameStop Exclusive

3DS Owners in North America will finally be able to their hands on the Circle Pad Pro peripheral come February 7, 2012. The Circle Pad Pro adds an extra Circle Pad and additional shoulder buttons to the 3DS and is said to last 480 hours of gameplay on a single battery. The Circle Pad Pro will cost $19.99 and will be sold exclusively at GameStop on February 7, two weeks before the PlayStation Vita which has two Circle Pads comes out in stores (other than GameStop too). The Circle Pad Pro peripheral is needed for Metal Gear Solid 3D: Snake Eater and optionally for Resident Evil Revelations, which both come out sometime in Q1 2012. At this point, people are probably expecting a newer 3DS Model to be revealed at E3 with another Circle Pad and extra should buttons. What do you think about the Circle Pad Pro extension?
