Sora96 17,256 Posted August 29, 2014 The new 3DS has an additional small control stick, Amiibo (NFC) support, faster, cart slot on the bottom. Both 3DS and 3DS XL will get the upgrade. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hero of Winds 2,576 Posted August 29, 2014 It also fixed the problems with the 3D gimmick through the use of the camera. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Master BJ 35 Posted August 29, 2014 I like the little control stick :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Setrex 1,031 Posted August 29, 2014 You can even customise it via cover plates. Welp, time to upgrade my 3DS. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Soravids 1,056 Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) Nice, but the new stick looks a little to small IMO opinion. I could be wrong though. Edited August 29, 2014 by soravids Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sora96 17,256 Posted August 29, 2014 Nice, but the new stick looks a little to small IMO opinion. I could be wrong though. It's supposed to be like the GameCube one I think. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soravids 1,056 Posted August 29, 2014 It's supposed to be like the GameCube one I think. Yeah. I never owned a GameCube, but I played one. I didn't like it's controller too much, but didn't really play enough games to be completely sure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sora96 17,256 Posted August 29, 2014 Yeah. I never owned a GameCube, but I played one. I didn't like it's controller too much, but didn't really play enough games to be completely sure. I loved Pokemon Colosseum on GameCube. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soravids 1,056 Posted August 29, 2014 I loved Pokemon Colosseum on GameCube. It's been so long since I played a Pokémon game. I played on N64. I loved Stadium 1 and 2. Snap was great too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kodakliv 558 Posted August 29, 2014 So in order to play xenoblade on the 3DS I need to get the new model? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WakingDawn96 1,166 Posted August 29, 2014 I already don't have money because of Nintendo games, and now I want to badly upgrade to this new 3DS. UGH!!!! Why do they do this to me!?!?!?!? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OmegaForte 1,674 Posted August 29, 2014 Changeable faceplates. Well it's about time! Now to decide which will I buy once it's released overseas... Pocket size or oversized 3DS? Decisions... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kodakliv 558 Posted August 29, 2014 I guess I'll just keep my XL unless games like Pokemon are going to be on the new model. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sora96 17,256 Posted August 29, 2014 So in order to play xenoblade on the 3DS I need to get the new model? Yes, and some other future titles. 1 Kodakliv reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kodakliv 558 Posted August 29, 2014 Yes, and some other future titles.Thanks Sora for clearing that up, hopefully they have a deal where you trade your XL or original 3DS you get a good amount back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shulk 8,623 Posted August 29, 2014 Getting this because of Xenoblade and the second Circle Pad. Can't wait until I can get it! 1 Hero of Winds reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KH4Real 749 Posted August 29, 2014 Sniff so probably no FF Explorers. Oh well there are still alot of 3ds games to play and with the upcoming or/as. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DragonMaster 1,166 Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) Eh, I really don't like the color buttons, and I'm a bit iffy on how the second analogue would work. EDIT: Well, the picture provided didn't have them, so here The fact that the small boost in power makes it so some games will only be playable on the New 3DS kinda makes me mad. I guess I'll just wait and see how many games end up using it, though. Edited August 29, 2014 by DragonMaster 1 Sora96 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
atheist123 583 Posted August 30, 2014 Hopefully the NEW 3DS only gets Wii ports as exclusives. I don't mind that, since there are many ways to play Wii games. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
