I guess you probably could sell it online and probably get back most of the cash you originally spent on the 3DS. If GameSpot has a deal where you can trade in a 3DS towards the 3DS XL, you could do that as well. -- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ \| ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! <cite>-LusterSoldier- posted [p:1260375] in 3DS XL ann...

MrGreenonion 06/21/12 9:40:00 PM #52:	From: Zero_Kuribo \| #048 I was unaware handhelds needed 2 sticks. 1 worked pretty well I think the point is that they already make an attachment for the 3DS that adds a second stick and games that use it, and that said attachment will not work with 3DS XL, so if they DON'T add a second stick to the XL, they'll just have to make ANOTHER attachment for it. -- SuperNiceDog didn't have to reconcile his name...

I also have the color that is now going to be discontinued. I don't think I'll end up getting a 3DS XL, at least not anytime soon.

The bigger size is just more of a hindrance than a help and it means that DS games and even 3DS games will probably look worse on the bigger screen. -- http://backloggery.com/genesistwilight/sig.gif http://mlkshk.com/r/3JLF.gif <cite>GenesisTwilight posted [p:1260380] in 3DS XL ann...

BerkeIium 06/21/12 9:52:00 PM #58:	MrGreenonion posted... I don't get the idea of "don't buy this one, wait for the improved version!". There's always gonna be another improved version a couple years later; if you won't buy it until they stop putting out new and improved versions, you'll just be waiting forever. It's an issue of whether the device is even worth owning before the remodel. Every system I've bought within the last ten years has been a redesign, not because the "improved versions" were necessarily that much better, but because those systems didn't have enough games to warrant a purchase before the redesign. Why buy something you're not going to use all that often when a better version could come out later? And then there are those who buy every iteration of a product at launch. That's an idea I don't get. Granted, this doesn't look all that much better than the standard 3DS. But that's the other big advantage of waiting for an updated version: the earlier iteration should drop in price. Woohoo! Now if only the 3DS had a few more games... <cite>BerkeIium posted [p:1260382] in 3DS XL ann...

Wanglicious 06/21/12 10:58:00 PM #62:	yeah, the XL is really just a matter of "if you think it was too small, this is for you." personally i like the bigger screen because with the 3D it'd especially look good (90% bigger screens? jeez). but the 'better battery' isn't even true for for me because Nyko's battery ALREADY doubles the 3DS' into the 6-10 hour range on a 3DS game (and almost twice that for DS). you know, DS fat levels. and that was on sale for $5 just 2 weeks ago. now i assume that Nyko will do another battery to bring this up to slightly above DS Lite, but still. the size on it has left me able to carry in my pocket just fine. i'd manage to do it with the bigger one too, but it's no big deal. the real question will be what special editions come in the bigger one. -- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. <cite>Wanglicious posted [p:1260386] in 3DS XL ann...

I'd rather have a 3DS lite tbh, doesn't really seem necessary to me make it bigger. The regular 3DS is pretty much considered a 3DS Lite. It has the same shape as the DS Lite. -- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ \| ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! <cite>-LusterSoldier- posted [p:1260408] in 3DS XL ann...

I remember talking to a Nintendo rep at work during the holiday season and she tried telling me that there wouldn't even be a second model.

MrGreenonion 06/23/12 12:52:00 AM #90:	From: GenesisTwilight \| #056 The bigger size is just more of a hindrance than a help and it means that DS games and even 3DS games will probably look worse on the bigger screen. Actually, it's quite the opposite. You can play original DS games in 1:1 mode on the 3DS, and this eliminates the blur caused by the resolution upscaling in fullscreen mode. The problem is, this puts a border around the screen, which shrinks the viewable area to a very small size. But, on the 3DS XL's larger screens, if you use 1:1 mode, the viewable area is actually a tiny bit BIGGER than the normal DSi's screen. tl;dr - playing an original DS game on a 3DS XL will look almost exactly the same as playing it on a DSi. -- SuperNiceDog didn't have to reconcile his name...

Best news ever. The two reasons I skipped out on the original model were the battery life and DS games looking crappy. so it looks like this could be a day 1 purchase for me. -- http://soundcloud.com/thundersheep/in-search-of-sunrise-10 http://soundcloud.com/thundersheep/verr-ckt-nach-liebe <cite>thundersheep posted [p:1260417] in 3DS XL ann...
