After the DSi XL, I kinda feel the same way too, but if they made the system any bigger, it wouldn't be very portable.

Doesn't the 3DS have shotty battery life? That's something that could be improved.
+ they'll probably make the screen bigger, or the size of the 3DS.

It has a shorter Battery life if you have 3D on. Otherwise it has a similer battery life.
That is one thing that they could improve on, however, the battery life really isn't that bad to begin with. Yes, when you turn the 3D and screen brightness up all the way, the battery only lasts a few hours, but that's comparable to most smartphones. It takes double the power to push out 3D graphics, so of course the battery is going to be drained fast. I'm sure Nintendo put the best battery they could afford in the 3DS. Maybe down the line there will be advances in battery technology or batteries will become cheaper, allowing Nintendo to make a 3DS with better battery life, but even if they do that it's not really a revision, just a 3DS with a better battery. And I doubt they would do that, unless they were planning on making a complete system revision to go along with it, and like I've already discussed, I don't see how they could do that.
