waiting for circle pad LL B-)
:p1ng2: , I wanted the circle pad built into the system :sad:. They can't say they didn't have enough room for it.

I'd hate to see how much bigger that thing would get if they actually made a circle pad attachment...
by including 2nd circle pad will mean giving up the original 3DS i certainly dun wan that to happen...
 
This is hilarious.

Nintendo swore they had no plans to release a revised 3DS two weeks ago.

Now this is announced.

What's funniest of all is....

No second analogue stick, cant wait for the CPP XL.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

;O;

People are gonna think you're serious.
He is.
 
So, At first I was thinking to myself, Well, There went nintedo.


Than I remembered how amazing the XL was, and well, I'm trading my 3ds in for this one, Day 1, Even if I lose ambassador.

it looks like two ipads glued together.
Forget that, I'm differently getting it transferred first. It either sliver or white for me. Which one should I get?
 
Well, I don't see this having a blow on the current 3DS and current 3DS owners anyways.

It's $40 more and you get a bigger screen (dunno about resolution).

The current 3DS will stay fine for sure.

One thing is definite, I'm not upgrading.

"Nintendo surely isn't working on a revision, they said so! It would be a betrayal of fans who JUST bought a 3DS! I wouldn't get one!"

Nintendo Fans After This Announcement:

"Should I get the White one or the Silver one?"

We'll need a bigger Circle Pad Pro people. And a bigger charging dock. And a bigger Powerpak +. Nintendo is making companies (Nyko in specific) waste their money developing for them.

Learn what a revision is. This is a bigger version. Nothing more. ABSOLUTELY NONE. They still play the exact same things, in the exact same ways. NO DIFFERENCES. A revision would be added hardware, more power, another screen(Hey...it'd have the 3 in it, at least.)

To those complaining, think of it this way: We could've got thrown a 3DS 2, with two circle pads. Like I said though, they'd piss the entire fanbase off with that move. So they aren't going to do that. It was blatantly obvious, the 3DS gets enough flack as it is by you unsatisfiable people.

Final note: There's STILL not going to be room for that second circle pad. The 3DS XL will have the battery in the same place. Just bigger. And it's still in the spot that the circle pad would go. Face it, it's just a design flaw of the entire DS and 3DS line. They have nowhere else to put the battery,

Yeah, if fans mean everyone speaks for each other, but you know... it doesn't.

No, a revision is the exact same hardware with small differences, such as THE SIZE.

Changing internal hardware, adding power or another screen is creating a successor - an entirely new console. Sorry, but you're wrong. :)

The DS was revised into the DS Lite, the DSi was the DS's successor, it was revised into the XL, the XL's successor was the 3DS... which got revised just now.

I like the fact that they fixed the screen scratching problem by putting in a recessed screen. I also like the real buttons in front too. Hopefully the sound will be louder? Maybe better camera? Wishfull thinking!

So the DSi can be considered a successor?
