I'm glad that Nintendo is realizing how much more slick their whole DS Lite motif looked compared to that 3DS/3DS XL shit. The New 3DS looks so much nicer and cleaner aesthetically.
It looks like an XL.

Only Micro SD and it sounds like they still don't support SDXC or 64GB.
So don't release it and give us a proper successor say in a year or so be it Fall 2015 or early 2016 like Feb ala when the original hit.
Instead if NA doesn't get this till 2015 no way will we actually see a new handheld with non shit tech anytime soon. PICA 200 GPU is shit tech for the times FYI.
Wait, where did they say that? All I saw was that DS peripherals won't work (like Guitar Hero), but those never worked on 3DS
wait what? I've heard it's still DS BC.
ugh
there's no such thing as an LED display, unless you're talking about the big jumbotron screens at sports stadiums or something
LED tvs are just LCD panels with led backlighting
Oh, so they did drop DS BC. Lame. But expected. Nintendo always does that with the latter hardware revisions.
No, it isn't. The only exclusive games will be ones not possible on 3DS. If the New 3DS didn't exist neither would those games. They aren't arbitrarily making some games exclusive and some games not.No I wouldn't imagine they would, but locking out "new" exclusive games to the millions of current 3DS users is a huge slap in the face.

Im surprised this isnt coming out this year with Smash Bros on the way.
But it's always been like this. This is actually less of a "slap in the face" launching a digital shop exclusively for the new model, like with the DSi.but locking out "new" exclusive games to the millions of current 3DS users is a huge slap in the face.

Yeah, bundling this with the SSB4 is almost like a no brainier.

They will use this year (especially the holidays) to sell their existing stock of regular 3DS and 3DS XLs. After that they are ready to ship new the versions out.
Sounds plausible, right?
I wonder if I'd be able to sell my 3DS XL for close to the price of a regular New 3DS.
I'm not on board yet though. The built-in CPP will certainly be great for MonHun (well, maybe not on that dinky C-Stick) but nothing else about it is really appealing. I don't care for Amiibos and one good exclusive isn't gonna make me want to go out and buy it. Also, am I hearing there's no DS BC? That sucks.
The color decisions for the New XL are so weird. They nailed it with New 3DS (I mean white and black, duh!). Can't wait to see how NOA fucks that up though. Probably launch with light blue and red again.
I think, from now on, I'm just gonna buy consoles and handhelds towards the end of their lives. So I can avoid the disappointment that goes with getting the "wrong" revision.
Nintendo has learned nothing from thier mistakes. Doubled down on 3d that most people dont care about, they acknowleded that they need dual analog sticks and they make a silly nub, and now they are going to make exclusive games for certain sku's?
Cmon nintendo you are so much better than this.
What the fuck? They add buttons and an extra analog stick? Thats not what a hardware refresh should be. Looking forward to the fact that no games will use them.
The 3DS isn't $400-$500.I guess the handheld market has different tolerances for asinine bull shit business decisions.
I guarantee you if Sony or MS pulled this shit on their current consoles, no one would stand for it.
Oh you will see some games use them. Theyre gonna make us buy this new hardware revision we like it or not.What the fuck? They add buttons and an extra analog stick? Thats not what a hardware refresh should be. Looking forward to the fact that no games will use them.
The handheld market is fucking weird, and I say that as a handheld gamer.I guess the handheld market has different tolerances for asinine bull shit business decisions.

Why would anyone want that? Regular controllers are 10x more comfortable than a handheld console.

So, is it region locked.. Orr...

Duh. You think Nintendo is gonna all of a sudden kill off region locking? I think they are the ones to really pull that shit back in the 90s.So, is it region locked.. Orr...

Every handheld revision for the past 20 years, like clockwork. Love it.
