New Nintendo 3DS or New Nintendo 3DS xl?

[Eldin]

Same here, it's too bad they didn't make the XL's a nice matte like the standards. If I can't manage to get my hand on a MM edition then I may make a custom design myself. c:

Me too probably.. shame the official wasn't purple that's be instabuy lol

That's how the original 3DS got me, even with the gloss. It had a pretty nice sparkle to it that wasn't obnoxious.

 

[Alienfish]

Yeah.. I don't think EU ever got the purple 3DS..or if it was XL it was so nice though.

 

[Jarrad]

We didn't. I think it was the only one that we didn't get.

I don't remember ever seeing a purple XL, unless it was maybe some kind of special edition?

 

[Alienfish]

We didn't. I think it was the only one that we didn't get.

Ah, figured. I knew my friend in the US had a purple one or at least mentioned one haha

Good luck. It's looking like I'm going to have to rip someone's arms off to get me one of them.

And I agree, the matte would have been a lot better. Fingerprints all over the place otherwise.

 

[Alienfish]

Yeah, same here probably since they probably don't take in too large quantities here either as per usual.

I'm glad it's just not black then it'd been fingerprints ahoy

Lack of quantity and the fact that they aren't limited to 1 per household, if you're referring to the MM edition. Been checking around online, screenshots of receipts with like four preorders in one purchase all over the place.

 

[Alienfish]

Exactly, and yes that one.

To be honest they should limit it to one or two, four seems a bit overkill unless you have a lot of children who has a LoZ fandom, or something I don't know.

here in AUS it was limited to one per person on the gamestop/ebgames website, not sure how strict it was though, especially online

 

[Alienfish]

Yeah I heard GS did that, idk if it applied to worldwide though. Although they set the release date here way off lolol.

 

[Reindeer]

What's this whole talk about the XL's not being matte? The system appears to be made from the same materials as current XLs, and I can tell you I've never had a problems with fingerprints.

Unless I'm missing something here.

 

[bloomwaker]

Not as glossy as the original, but not as matte as the XLs, though the glossy area is limited. I still wish it was entirely like the current XLs, though.

 

[Cam1]

I am pretty sure America is only getting the XL, so it is a good thing I didn't care about cover plates or anything!

 

[bloomwaker]

Yeah, we only had the XL announced here. Considering they also discontinued the original 3DS here, I'm assuming it has to do with market. Possibly marketing. Get a smaller, more customizable version of the New 3DS XL! Haha...

 

[Lancelot]

What do we call this in 20 years when it's not new anymore

 

[spCrossing]

A bigger screen is good.

So XL.

What happens to someone who wants to buy a used one?

Hi, can I have a used New 3DS XL?
