Can't say I was fooled, but then again I did visit the homepage looking to see if this year's joke was posted yet.

Very well done, looks like a realistic News article on first sight

(Not that I'm getting a 3DS anyway, so if it would really be cancelled it wouldn't have changed much).

Still funny how some people don't get the real joke of the topic

Nice one, Costello! Although entirely unbelievable, it was still a very amusing April Fool's joke. I laughed hard!

I've been saving up for the past few weeks for the 3DS, the concept sounded so cool too! I would never trust Nintendo anymore!

FUCK!!!!! Haha, nice one, didn't fall for it, but still nice.

How can we when Nintendo deleted the fucking page. And it's Nintendo of America too. Obviously NoA would make such a retarded claim so they can still sell their fucking DSiXLs

I know you won't make me sad Nintendo of Japan D:

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @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.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

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