Smoother 3D experience, Great new C-Stick and controls, Better battery life
Still a bit chunky, Face tracking has a few flaws, Removes the hard Wireless on/off switch
I already have a 3DS. One of the original ones, mind you, but it's still a 3DS. I love it to bits for playing all of the Pokemon my tiny brain can handle. I've been told that moving from the original 3DS to something like the 3DS XL is a revelation. I hel...

Abstract: Nintendo's New 3DS XL has more in common with existing 3DS systems than it might want to admit, but it's still a solid upgrade option for older 3DS owners.It's been a while since I'd laid down any cash on a new Nintendo portable.That in itself speaks volu...
Second directional stick added, Face tracking increases 3D viewing angles, Faster processor
Cstick feels overly firm and inaccurate, No charger included in the box, No games utilise the extra power
If you don't already own a 3DS this new version is a no brainer. It's sleeker, the 3D is improved and it will operate forthcoming software its predecessors cannot. The 3DS really is the best handheld console on the market, and its software line-up featur...
The 3D screens are improved by new face-tracking, and the larger size offers a less cramped viewing experience. Internal tweaks and updates add a behind-the-scenes boost
The poor battery life hasn't improved. Having to remove the back of the console to change the SD card is a poor design choice and the legacy data transfer process is infuriating. Also, there's no AC charger in the box -- you have to buy one separately
The massively improved 3D more than makes up for a relatively small list of updates and some frustrating design choices....

Abstract: The New 3DS XL features a second stick about the face buttons, a hint of colour and a refined layout.While previously any movement of your head or the system would cause uncomfortable blurring or a complete loss of the effect, the new tech uses facial rec...
Incredible game library, Much improved 3D, Faster processor is great,
Nintendo's online system needs work, Interface still a little clunky, Awful camera,
If you've already got a 3DS XL, the New 3DS XL is worth considering. If you're still rocking an original 3DS, the New 3DS models are almost a must-have upgrade. The two new models look better, run faster and are actually make 3D worth using. Despite the ...
Abstract: Nintendo has done it again. With a saturated market and numerous iterations of the hardware, they are pushing out a new version of the 3DS. Back in August, when Nintendo first announced the new system, I was questioning how this new system would really do...
Abstract: The New 3DS might not look much different from its predecessor at first glance, but it's a combination of several small hardware changes that makes this hand-held gaming console everything the original 3DS should have been. We explain in our New 3DS...
Excellent glasses-free 3D, New guts theoretically promise more technically impressive games, Existing 3DS catalog enhanced by new improvements
No proprietary cord for charging out of the box included, Extra tools required to swap storage cards, Convoluted system transfer process from older models
What we're left with is a mid-generation upgrade that isn't quite essential, but it could be at some point in the future. If you've never owned a 3DS before, this is the one to get. And if you're mulling an upgrade, there are a lot of attractive features...
