Reader Discussion: What Do You Think Of The 3DS XL?
Nintendo recently announced the 3DS XL, which boasts a much bigger playing area and screen, among other features. Tell us what you think of the handheld's new version.
Even though it doesn't matter to me (my hands are child-sized), I think the XL version is great for people whose larger hands don't fit the smaller original hardware. I'm not sure how I feel about the lack of a second circle pad, though.
What do you think? Are you going to buy the XL? Why or why not?
Note: The 3DS XL pictured above is the white version, which will be available in Japan.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
