Hardware Any chance of the non-XL N3DS coming to America?

[Deleted User]

I really don't want to buy a N3DS XL, the O3DS XL was big enough, and difficult to carry around in my pockets, etc, and I don't want to buy an even larger system than the O3DS XL.
I only really got the O3DS XL because I originally wanted the ALBW special edition.
I don't have it anymore. The audio jack had a factory defect, that I ignored at first, but got worse from use over time.

who knows i think that is in NOA's hands.....i guess the more people go ask nintendo directly the more they will consider it, i guess kicking up a stink in online forums etc may help too.....but it just depends on how pigheaded they are going to be about it

there is always region changed consoles, but thats a bit of a process to get working 100% atm (if ever, still not a perfected method)

The n3DS XL is the same size as the old one isn't it?

I think Nintendo will realize pretty quickly that there are a lot of people like you who just prefer the smaller size, it's just a matter of time before they release the small n3DS in US.
If they don't, that would be bad for them financially, it would mean lost sales.

pretty much the same size, maybe like a mm or so bigger as its a *slightly* tighter fit in my case, but i think thats just because the top corners seem less rounded than on the oXL

Believe me, you're not the only one who wants a US New 3DS.

(No though, I don't think it's going to happen.)

I don't even have a Gateway anyways.
Or Sky3DS. Only a DS Flashcart.

They're a nod to the abxy buttons of the Japanese Super Famicom controller. (Japan's version of the Super Nintendo) U.S. version of the controller didn't get these colored buttons. http://www.i64x.com/i6img/sfc22.jpg

I know that. I'm talking specifically of the pictures shown on the Nintendo Life link.
