Regular 3DS is way better... I like it because the XL isn't all glossy and smooth.
But I might get one for my sister sweatdrop

K, first off, the entire reason they came up with the DSiXL is that older people in Japan play video games. The tiny screen on the DSi was hard for older people to see, so they went with bigger screens.

They did the exact same thing with the 3DS. The 3DSXL is simply another option for people who don't have a 3DS yet. It isn't updated or anything. It's simply a bigger 3DS, nothing more. And no one is forcing you to buy it anyway.

That is why it does NOT have a second circle pad built in. They didn't want it to be superior to the original. Also, how many games use the second circle pad anyway? 2?

Sure, it can't fit in your pocket, but when you're a girl, that really isn't a problem. Just put it in a purse or a shoulder bag.
As for men, I'm sure there's a pair of pants out there that have extra large pockets that will fit the 3DSXL. Heck, even I remember somehow fitting my DSiXL into my pants pocket before.

And OF COURSE Nintendo is trying to make some money. That's the entire reason video games even exist!

There. That's my rant of the day. 3nodding

Thats a good point,but if u have a regular 3ds ,on the shop,this guy says it has an "updated form factor" but when it has nothing diferent about the camra or ANYTHING.But the 3dsXL has longer batery power than the 3ds.But there isent much for the new 3dsxl compared to the 3ds. eek

I like the 3DSXL exterior design, but the interior is a bit awful. They should of kept the green 3d light there and no the plastic (unless it has to do with battery life). None the less, I perfer the green light.
