Fuck it. I'm going for it. What's Gamestop's policy on system transfer?
Not even a revision, I'd say, it's just another SKU. 3DS OG isn't going anywhere.Because its not a redesign, it's a revision
Also, smash bros 3DS will look glorious on that screen.

What's amusing is that in Nz, currently, the original 3DS costs more than XL units. Who would buy the regular?
You like strategy games, do yourself a favour and buy GR:Shadow Wars.I bought a 3DS XL today, I am part of the 3DS club

I bought Mario Kart 7 on it, and I am looking to buy Dead or Alive Dimensions, Tales of the Abyss 3DS, and Resident Evil: Revelations.

One thing I've learned, with 3D on: Stay still. So very still. Some games aren't even playable in 3D because the effect can screw you up, like in Mario 3D Land or even Pilotwings.
Theatrhythm and 3D Land

I've been playing Shantae: Risky's Revenge on this thing in 1:1 mode for the past couple of days. I've become a big believer in the circle pad. After playing DKCR and Super Meat Boy with analog sticks, I feel like this has become my preferred way to play most games vs. a d-pad. Never thought I'd ever say that!
So, I'm off to buy Revelaitons, is it really good? Is the single player campaign lenghty enough to justify the price?
I heard the multiplayer is enough to justify the price. Level up system, totally online and not local play.

Coop, really fun and MUCH better than any Mercenaries mode.i didnt know that game has multi. is it horde mode only? or also vs?
and the huge library of DS games that I bought but never got around to (3 Layton games! TWEWY, Ghost Trick, Henry Hatsworth, Super Mario 64 now playable due to the slider etc). The only thing I'm missing now is a good case, which hopefully will get rectified soon. Please no one recommend the purse. Not interested. =)
No the only thing you are missing is Pheonix wright =P

Ace Combat!Dang, my list of "must buy" game grows ever larger. Any upcoming deals for these games?

It's decent... it's definately a heft package with high production values, but idk can't say I care that much for it.

I've noticed people saying that the XL feels good. My hands cramp and feel weird really quickly while using my OG 3DS...especially when using the dpad.
My question:
If you have had similar experiences with the OG 3DS, did the XL solve the problem?
For the most part, yep.
Yep, dpad usage is definitely improved, but hand cramps still occur for me, as the system is just too damn slim for any decent ergonomics.
I know it's a weird complaint, but I just miss the days of the bulkier gameboys and the og gba. Those devices allowed you to put it in the palm of your hand and grip it. Seriously, go take an GBC or the original gba. I could play those for hours without a single hand cramp. The 3ds xl, while better than the og 3ds, is still not ergonomic enough.
I'm eagerly awaiting for grips to show up for the xl.
A quick look at gamestracker revealed a $20 price tag from eStarland (don't know them though living in Europe). This one might vanish from shelves so I dunno if you can get it much cheaper. Definitely worth it for that price imo. Gfx are quite horrible but gameplay more than makes up for it.Dang, my list of "must buy" game grows ever larger. Any upcoming deals for these games?
While I think the XL blows the original model out of the water, the one thing I did prefer in the original model was how comfortable it was to hold.
It's weird, people would constantly complain about hand cramps on the og model and how XL has fixed it, but to me, it's almost the reverse situation.
Even the circle pad feels a bit better on the og model. It seems a bit bigger? My thumb doesn't slide off as easy.
Yep. OG 3DS gave me cramps after 20 minutes on any game while the XL and Vita are fine after hours of use. My hands are just too large for the original, it wasn't made with adults in mind.I've noticed people saying that the XL feels good.
