However I didn't even know about the LE game with the figure until tonight. It irks me that Nintendo is making all of these things so limited and that resellers are going nuts! They past couple of years Nintendo haa been hurting for revenue so you'd think they'd be making more of what obviously has been in demand (i.e. every single LE zelda item they've made in years!). They need to get with it and make these awesome items available to more people.


Did you get the email?


Yes, I got the super shitty email back on Jan 23rd. I had overlooked it until I just went to check my order status this morning. I'm bummed. Both Nintendo and Best Buy have disappointed me greatly.

just jumping all the pages so sorry if this has been answered already, but for those that have seen the new 3DS XL, how does the picture look? i read on other sites that the picture looks stretched.

i'm kinda glad i didn't get a 3DS XL yet because if the picture quality is good on these new 3DSs i will most definitely be getting one (i just wish they had the interchangeable face plates like the smaller ones. hopefully they'll have the plastic cases you just clip on like the DS Lite and the 3DS have).

My New 3DS arrived. It's the Majora's Mask edition, and it is beautiful.


I've not had time to sit and play much on it, but it doesn't feel like a big step up from the 3DS XL. Didn't really find the 3D head tracking as great as people say, but I rarely struggled on the old 3DS, so it's probably not for me anyhow.

Taking off the backplate to replace the SD card sucks though.

Nice man! I'm chomping at the bit for mine.

Hopefully the tracking improves the Smash experience. I never struggled either, but not having to keep my hands or face in concrete positions is welcome.

I love to see these stories of the thing finally in peoples hands and seeing how they feel about the system.

I'm still on board, delayed at least, as I want to see if this plays out well. I've got a big issue with it coming out and having no games for it meant for it. I recently took up writing articles and lore over at the new column section at Digital Press and posted a piece hours ago about the system. I'm very curious and am taking a wait and see on this for a bit as I want to know if Nintendo is hiding the facts there are more games or there are little to no more games made for it. Will this be a GBC with a nearly 5 year life with heaps of unique games, or will they use it as a smoke screen lie and barely give it 2 years and 4 games for it like the DSi.

Does anybody know if Nintendo has upped the PPI on the New 3DS XL versus the original 3DS XL?

They did not.

Hey guys, my New 3DS is being delivered today ( :D :D :D)

I was hoping to transfer the data from my old 3DS to the New 3DS, so my question is does anyone know what size SD card the old 3DS XL came with? I know the New 3DS XL comes with a 4GB microSD and I just want to make sure that the old 3DS XL came with the same size (or smaller) before I transfer.
