What do you think about the New Nintendo 3ds?

[manny88]

I think it going to be more powerfull, fun, and very exaityng, because had so many features like 3d stability and zl and zr buttons and the little stick well i want to played!!! What to you think?

It's an improvement, for sure. When I play smash on my old OoT Zelda 3Ds, or on my New Nintendo 3DS, I feel a difference in speed and handling. The C-stick helps. End of story. And the load times are reduced to a minimum, which only benefits the player more.

I was part of the Ambassador program for the New 3DS though, and may thus be completely biased, but I don't regret it.

I would say that the New 3ds XL is really an improvement in terms of it's power to handle things more efficiently to more better fit in today's technology generation . It has some nice features that com along it to now support some games and they are also very cool , though I can't really say it is a huge and drastic change between it to the regular XL

I think that the new 3ds is pretty cool. It has another circle pad,which I like a lot. I also like the face tracking 3d so the 3d does not mess up when you turn. I also like the built in amiibo support. That is very cool and you can use amiibos on a 3ds. I also like how on the new 3ds that everything is faster than the other 3ds' like downloads and loading.

No, the N3DS isn't an improvement: it's a DLC'd version of the 3DS that should have been released first.
The N3DS does way less than what the DSi and what the GBC did to their predecessors respectively.

Sadly, the problem is that Nintendo often does the trick of "We swear that there won't be another model" before fooling people out with another "wannabe improved" model.

Plus, sorry, but, aside from games made with the N3DS SDK, the basic CTR games (old3DS as people say) can't take advantage of most of the gimmicks the N3DS gives, aside from the "converted" ZL/ZR bumpers, and the doorknob thingy called a C-Stick.

Hence why I don't get why people get amazed by the N3DS, when an "old" one performs as better as the "new" one on, let's admit it, 98.99% of the games. And don't get me started on how terrible the N3DS-only library is, as it is only made of smoke screen games, that doesn't even deserved such a poor portage (XC3D is murdering violently XC with an hundred stabs of aliasing and FPS drops, while Binding of Isaac 3D... Why such a good game is even used as a smoke screen anyway? Do it on PC!).

So, no, I'm not trying to be an anti-N3DS guy seeking to start a flame war, but, I don't get why the usual cycle of Nintendo's handheld trolling always work more than perfectly with people going surprised over terrible arguments. Okay, it's Nintendo, and they do have some solid arguments, but... they aren't that solid to anybody who bought the last model and who feel betrayed.

@D4rkDragon I completely agree. I bought a N3DS XL myself... and I still use my good old 3DS XL with its Circle Pad Pro because everything that the N3DS adds is either useless or unusable:

• The C-Stick is smaller than the X button and too high to be reached when you have long nails
• The ZL and ZR buttons are also present on the Circle Pad Pro
• The Extra Stable 3D is nothing I can see since I always disable 3D
• I do not like the Xenoblade series anyway

So yeah, I bought it but for now I feel like I bought it for no reason. And I don't even know if I hope they will release interesting exclusives so that I didn't pay for nothing or if I hope they keep doing bullsheep on that "new" console so that I can still use my good old 3DS XL without having transferring issues.

(The thing that would change my mind forever is Splatoon for N3DS, but we all know this won't happen).
