In the most recent issue of The Official Nintendo Magazine which is published in Europe, there supposively are details stating that the 3DS will launch in Europe on Friday, March 11th. This could possibly be a non-intentional leak or even a printing mistake, but it does fall in line with the rumored US release date of 3DS: March 13th. It’s also possible that there is no printed information and that the people who have been sending the news over towards PGN, misread the article. Until I have the actual magazine in my hands, consider this a rumor for now.

What we know for sure though is that Nintendo already has plans to launch the system in Japan on February 26th, so if these other two dates are true…then a world wide span of two weeks is going to produce some incredible numbers. More as it breaks.
