90% large and no second circle-pad? As cool as a big ass screen sounds, not adding the circle-pad pro additions is a fail in my book.

AlanJohn · Jun 22, 2012

THEY COULDN'T EVEN PUT A SECOND CIRCLE-PAD THERE?????
WHYYYYYYYYY???????
NOW I WILL HAVE TO BUY A CIRCLE-PAD-PRO XL™ FOR THIS SHIT.

The second pad will only be available in the 3DSiXL Pro Lite: Ambassador edition.

all I can say is way to say fu nintendo. anyone who bought the system originally got like 20 free games, many of which aren't even open to the public. and soon, anyone can buy this new version (the LL), with significantly larger screens, for barely much more? r the people in between essentially being punished for destroying the vita???. I personally feel ripped off. I had originally thought about going legit with 3ds, but this has me considering otherwise. I'm going to wait for a flash cart at this point.

you all are acting like this wasnt inevitable of course there was gonna be a revision and of course they werent gonna add a second circle pad anyone expecting otherwise is delusional

ChaosHydrA · Jun 22, 2012

i dont understand why people keep using the 2nd circle pad card to vent their frustration, theres a reason why the circle pad pro is on the same line as the button controls when its attached, the grip on the 3ds would be awkward and uncomfortable if it was positioned under the buttons as the other cirlepad is so high up. At the end of the day you are most likely using the buttons and the only circle pad for most of the games anyway. If they switch the buttons to the bottom the d-pad would be eliminated a bit

yes, but not as soon as this. this is suggests u might as wait five or so years to actually buy the system as there maybe a revision every year.

Bladexdsl · Jun 22, 2012

seriously though how many games use the 2nd circle pad

godreborn · Jun 22, 2012

I'm not sure how many others r upset by this. I was going to buy new super mario bros 2, but at this point I'm just going to wait for a hack even if it takes years. as much as I've been a fan of nintendo, this upsets me enough never to buy another nintendo product again.

SS4 · Jun 22, 2012

ROFL. I kept telling every1 i wouldnt buy a 3DS until we get an XL version.

My DSi XL > 3DS

just because of the size.

Now ppl kept saying: but Nintendo said.... have u looked at the gameboy, gameboy color, Advance, DS ..... how many version was there for each? 1 ????

NO! I hope some ppl learned something today.

And finally, i'm glad that Nintendo finally caters to a demographic other than kids or ppl with kids sized hand. Ill be getting a 3DS XL sooner than i expected ^^

Just a few weeks ago (IIRC) they were saying they had no plans for a revision at all. That makes them big fat fucking liars. http://manatank.com/2012/06/3ds-redesign/
So you can take that to the bank as a good reason why people are allowed to be mad.

godreborn · Jun 22, 2012

it's not stupid at all. it's the fact that they upgraded the system in such a short time. imagine if the the ps3 slim appeared about a year after the ps3 phat did. u'd have quite a few angry people. it's not the fact that they upgraded the system. it's the fact that they did so so quickly. it suggests that the upgrade was already planned before the system was released. upgrades, such as this, usually take a couple years to plan beforehand.

its been a year and half sense the damn thing was released are people seriously forgetting the ds lite came out 2 years after the ds phat?

90% bigger and no 2nd circle pad? XD
And the Circle Pad pro won't even fit the new 3DS so people have to buy a new Circle pad pro too if they want to use dual circle pads XD

No no no.
I stick with my 3DS thank you.

jalaneme · Jun 22, 2012

23 Aug. 2011 - Nintendo has dismissed internet reports that a new redesigned 3DS is in the works as "rumour and speculation".

http://www.gonintend...story&id=178555

4 Jun. 2012 - Once again we've seen Nikkei leak Nintendo info. Once again...Nintendo denies it. The Big N says that Nikkei's info on a 3DS redesign (...) is full of mistakes, based off conjecture and not things Nintendo has said.

http://www.digitalsp...t-handheld.html

12 Jun. 2012 - Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto said that he is proud of the current handheld system and has no plans to change or remodel it.

http://multiplayerbl...rned-for-wii-u/

8 Aug. 2012 -
As for those looking warily at the prospect of 3DS redesign following this price drop, Fils-Aime confirmed that it's much too soon to ask about a 3DS Lite. "The form factor, we believe, is quite strong and quite positive. We have nothing else to add at this point in terms of other form factor changes or other color changes beyond the Flame Red that we're announcing today.

Let me explain to you briefly what happened. Nintendo chose the path of the price drop, and as soon as rumours of a redesign - be it a smaller or a bigger one - started surfacing, Nintendo swiftly denied them. Why? Because if they'd be honest, people would start anxiously waiting for the revision rather than buy the 3DS Classic.

They outwardly lied to the masses whereas they could've just refused to comment on so-called conjuncture. They lied. Into people's faces. People's faces. 3DS users have a right to be upset.

Like i said before, when a redisign comes along this will be obsolite so i would wait till a proper redesign comes about, also this annoucmnet is way too soon.
