NEW Nintendo 3DS (& XL)

[Mariah]

Hmm, do you think they will too selling game cards of older games such as ACNL and tomodachi life? I would assume that they would at least continue selling those. We always have eshop versions but I prefer cards, also I don't know how they will block off eshop versions to current models though.

They didn't stop selling DS games when the DSi came out.

True, but they made almost no new exclusive DSI games, they are starting off with 3-4 exclusives to this.

The only exclusive games were on the DSi shop. They are not starting off with three or four exclusives for the New 3DS. I don't know where you're getting your information from but it's wrong.

The "leak" state there'll be 3 exclusives right off the bat for western regions. mattyboo1 believes it's 100% true.

I don't really understand why people think that regular 3DS carts are going to stop being made. I mean why would they make New 3DS carts for games they don't intend to enhance? I'm willing to bet that 99% of all game carts are going to be normal 3DS ones after the New 3DS releases. After all the New 3DS is backwards compatible with normal 3DS games...

Hmmm

N64 needed an increase in memory for Majora's Mask.

New 3DS is getting more memory and processing power.

MM3DS CONFIRMED

I have a 3D XL but very tempted to upgrade ><
I'll have to wait and see when the release dates and prices for NA are.

I read that they're the same price as the normal 3DS and 3DS XL. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.

Definitely not going to buy one for the time being. I mean, I just got my Year of Luigi special edition 3DS XL in February and it still works great.
The new features do look neat though.

I think I might buy it, since I still have the original 3DS.

Are the grq'hics better on this model or will they be the same as the current one?

I don't see how the graphics would be improved. Graphics are governed by the software, not the hardware, so any games you can play on your 3DS now will look the same on the New 3DS.

 

[Arno]

I will be getting the new XL model because I have long since sold my soul to Nintendo and have bought every DS model aside from the original one. The fact that NA doesn't get it until perhaps next year is fine with me, because that gives me more time to save money for it.

 

[Hamusuta]

Games that only work with the new 3ds?

WHY NINTENDO WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYyyyy

My friend's doing a semester in Japan and he bought the black model. Along with Japanese ACNL.

He likes it a lot better than his regular 3DS and says it's definitely worth the upgrade.
