With the New 3DS XL available for purchase, a Siliconera translation of a Nintendo of Japan announcement asserts that the original 3DS XL will be “ending production soon”.

Japan and Australia are the only two countries where the New 3DS XL can be purchased. There’s no word yet on whether or not Australian availability of the original 3DS XL will change.
