YW7010 is dual ips. YW7011 is dual ips. YW7013 is dual tn, also I have one with TN upper and IPS lower. All were purchased from various Walmarts except for the dual TN YW7013 which came from Target. I have two of each so go hunting at Walmart and skip Target.
Received mine today (YW7012), this is my first 3DS so I'm not sure and got no other models to compare it to.
What do you guys think?

So it looks like YW7010, YW7011, and some YW7012s are dual IPS screens? Everything after that is dual TN?
I went to Target today, and they had like 8 in stock. Awesome, right? All of them were YW7017s and YW7018s. I think I saw a YW7015 as well. I didn't want to risk getting a dual TN. I already have the Animal Crossing one with dual TN. Nevermind the dual TN, but the top screen's color is more warm compared to the cool bottom screen, which sucks.
Anyway, I'm in the USA. So Target and Walmart are the only ones who have these?
Is this going to be a limited bundle like the Pokemon Red/Blue version? Or will they be making more and restocking?

Confirmed. Bought one from Bestbuy (Canada), and 7017 has dual TN. Overall i'm not too salty about it. It's a shame but oh well.
can't believe I missed this thread. here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/new-3ds-top-screen-distortion-ips.439505/
can anyone with IPS screens confirm this? I've come across 3 YW7011 units that presented this issue, black blotches at the bottom of the top screen. they're barely noticeable unless you're at minimum brightness on the system settings yellow screen.

Serial on the box or under the top faceplate.

It may be that specific batch of 7011s. I have 2 of them, and they don't seem to have that issue at all.
Just a question, if a person has never had two seperate systems to tell the difference, how would one know if they are using IPS or not?
The colours wash out pretty distinctively on the TN consoles. Text should be unreadable on the bottom console. 7010 and 7011 have confirmed dual IPS. 7012 has dual IPS, top IPS only, bottom IPS only and dual TN. Everything 7012+ is dual TN.
would you mind taking a picture? preferably under no light, with brightness set to 1 and in the system settings.
and what's your 7011 batch? the rest of the serial? like I said in the other thread, the ones I checked were in the 10s, 90s and 500s. is yours higher than that?

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite+1

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+2 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -
@
BigOnYa:
Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
