Nintendo probably won't change 3DS design

[Raika]

They have to move the power button elsewhere, something like the DS/Lite's, so that people won't accidentally power off the 3DS. Analog stick should be below d-pad IMO.

Personally I like the design, I'm a lefty and it looks easy to me, though Nintendo should think about others instead of just right handed people. Anyway leftys are AWESOME!

 

[shakirmoledina]

i dont think lefties are really gonna have a problem as giratina said so... look at the psp

Spoiler

(although this isnt a real psp but), it has one analog on the left but BELOW the dpad... thats what is important
maybe the dpad should be ABOVE the analog unless they have told companies tht they want games to be more analog than dpad... if u have analog, touchscreen usefulness in fast paced games is decreased IMO
i cant even tell where the 3d slider is

Poor lefties, you're getting left out.

lol how ironic

That's not irony.

And I don't think I'll mind the controls as they are.

I've never accidentally powered off my dsi, or accidentaly hit the start or select buttons

Spoiler: Comparison between 3DS and DSi

I really dont mind the design, except that there does appear to be a little too much space around the top screen

Same here, even the ds phat was rare with accidental power offs; only reason would be someone mashing UP too much/fast in a game, but even then that's still needing of a 1s press for it to power off.
The placement of the Start/Select buttons could've been better on the dsi and the 3ds; even though I'd take it as is

3DS Wifi indicator is fine in it's current location and setup. 3D slider needs a recessed DS phat volume slider

If the nub is below the D-pad, like on the PSP, it'll be unbearable for me. The PSP nub is so awkwardly postioned.

Yea same here. It not unbearable, but so awkward.

I haven't been able to move my thumb well since a car door slammed on it when I was about 12. Probably why I suck at console games lol.

 

[ibis_87]

I like the design, waaaay better than the original DS, IMO.

 

[gameguy95]

They probably make some changes to the 3d slider.
And IF the 3DS was completed, why would they wait to release the console by almost 1 year?

EDIT: remember when they showed us the NDS for the first time?

that DS is Beast man!!!
also: i like the look now for everything other than the 3d slider

As long as they don't make the D-Pad very useful like they've managed to do with the Gamecube and the Wii...... Then I'm fine with it being where it is.

The 3D I'm not so sure about. There could be people who can't see it at all, or people who can't stand to look at it... Then there could be problems with the handheld itself. The component that makes the games 3D might break easier, or wear out quickly.

I don't know about you, but even though I want a 3DS, I'll just stick with my DS Lite, since I've got a flash cart.

What ? It not just 3D tho , it got all those new improvements and features. Also it going to get the most support.

I doubt that component that makes the games 3D might break easy or break at all.

With all this complaining and the system isn't even out yea
