I just got a new 3DS for my birthday. Everyone told me to go for the XL, but to me, they didn't have any good colors :/ just the basic Red, Black, Pink and Blue (excluding the special edition systems). Ever since E3 I have had my eye on the Purple 3DS, so instead of getting the XL I went with the Midnight Purple. Did anyone else choose their system based on color?
 
I just chose whatever they had. Luckily mine was a white XL with Mario 3D Land, which was the colour I wanted anyway. I had black with my first 3DS but again I didn't care.
 
Kind of. Went with the purple one, haven't regretted it. Got a black one as a back up once, but had to exchange it due to a firmware issue.
 
Kinda. I got the 3DS at launch and the only colours available were blue and black so I chose Blue. I then traded it in for a XL which was just a bit after launch, and silver, red and blue were the only colours available, so I went with blue again. Sometimes I wish I waited that little bit longer but eh
 
No, got mine 1-2 years ago? 3ds, and I got red..personally I don't really like the red one bUT I got one anyway so.

Who cares? (ill probably buy a rubber kitty case or something anyway :3)

I picked a blue 3DS XL but only because there were no good colors and wanted an XL... Really wish I could have something amazing like what my DS Lite was :(
 
i usually buy the plain black system just 'cause black is my fav color/shade/whatever you smart *****es wanna call it

idk, just always loved black
 
I have the retired blue one. It's not that popular as said on the internet. The top screen when folded out should have been kept the same color, but w/e.
 
I got the red 3Ds for my birthday in 2011, so I couldn't really decide. But I like it anyways, and I still have it. The XL doesn't have any colors I like very much so I won't be getting it anytime soon.
 
yeah, i got the zelda 3ds. it was there and it looked way better than the plain red/blue colours so i had to get it
 
I didn't get my 3DS until like a year after it was released. I'm glad I did too because I got the sexy purple one.
 
I got a black one because it was a gift and they didn't know what color I liked.

But now I have a yellow Pikachu 3DS XL.
 
I got a ruby red 3ds..but I wish to have a white XL just like Animal crossing Edition, so beautiful :P
 
I got the white 3DS before the XL came out :3
(Simply got the 3DS for the white color because all the other ones were too common )

But if I had to choose now, errr. I don't know, I really like purple, but a XL one is better for the eyes x)
