Haha fuck Timmy.

This whole system transfer is fucking stupid as well. An hour later and I'm still on "1/6" on the progress bar. Why, Nintendo? Why must you be so backwards with your online system? If this was Sony, I would just add my account to the new system, re-download my digital games and download my save files from the cloud. Oh, Nintendo :roll:

Weird. I sent over about 6GB of stuff and it took less time than that. I was finished by this point.

Maybe my internet was being slow. I don't know though, because it shouldn't be, as I have BT Infinity.

Doesn't matter though, it's done now (took about 2 hours) and I'm currently playing the Majora's Mask remaster. Graphics have had a pretty nice overhaul. I'm interested to see the other improvements.

BTW, I do not like that 'second nub'. Whatever you call it. I hope I get used to it.

How clear were their instructions on how to do this? I'm going to be moving mine from my original 3DS (no XL).

I didn't bother with Nintendo's own instructions, instead I used this link, which I highly recommend: http://www.idigitaltimes.com/new-3ds-xl ... ide-413260

But to be honest, the process was pretty straight forward and easy to follow using the 3DS's on screen instructions. I do advise following the above instructions (or Nintendo's own, which I'm sure are straight forward) though just to make sure it's done properly and nothing is messed up.

I didn't bother with any instructions it's pretty straight forward and explains all the steps before you commit to any of it.

I've been playing Monster Hunter 4 Unlimited and the C-stick works fine. No complaints really. It does what it needs to do. I can't imagine playing an FPS or third person adventure game that requires aiming, being anything but an exercise in futility really. However it's not like those games will come to 3DS.
