More 3DS XL info

Very lucky to get it early! I personally don't really want an XL. Sure I'd love to have one, but seeing I already own a 3DS, and the XL seems to not have a much better battery (and 2nd circle pad), but still, looks like a very nice device and improved the build quality for sure.
P.S. Lucky for getting KH3D too!!! Hopefully I'll be getting a day early, but we'll see.

Aargh! I can't wait to get my NA 3DS XL
It is a beautiful system, but I still can't get over the fact that you folks don't have a charger bundled with it.

Unfortunately NoA is only offering the Blue and Red 3DS XLs, but I guess they look good enough.

I think you should add the following to your rant:
The 3DS slider, when slid down to 2D, clicks and locks into place.
There is no 3D light indicator.
Stylus placement has been moved back to the right-hand side, as it is on the DSi and previous systems.

Also there's a rumour that the 3DS XL has some sort of technology implemented into it which prevents pixelation of software designed for the original DS, by "rounding" sharp edges somehow. It's all over the internet, but just as a rumour.

Can you confirm or disprove this?

this is my second post on the 3DS XL so alot of things you ask to include where covered in part 1

will load a DS game into it later to confirm

have yet to test the DS mode

So is this a Dev model too?

Hm, now that I see better pictures of it, it looks pretty good. Still won't be getting one, though... with my lack of funds and all. Plus, it doesn't seem too easy to slip into my pocket when I want to take a walk. XD

how did you get it so early i have to wait till 28th and import it from europe

Ahh.

This wouldnt happen to be your girlfriend would it?

Which color do you think is better: redxblack or silverxblack?

I feel like getting red, but silver's transition looks more natural...

Darn. It is either 3DS XL, or PSP. I'm torn on which one to get.

Great minds think alike! [same color pre-ordered]
