It is about 90% if you multiply the width and the length of the screens. 3DS Top Screen Dimensions: 3.02 x 1.81 = 5.4662 3DS XL Top Screen *Estimated Dimensions: 4.16 x 2.5 = 10.4 3DS Touch Screen Dimensions: 2.42 x 1.81 = 4.3802 3DS XL Touch Screen *Estimated Dimensions: 3.33 x 2.5 = 8.325 * I determined the dimensions by taking the ratio of the screens' vertical length and diagonal length. (1.81/3.53 = x/4.88) You can find the width by using the aspect ratios of 5:3 (top) and 4:3 (touch).
The fact is that, you knew going in an buying the first 3DS that there will most likely be future reiterations of the device so its about either having the pride of getting one first, or waiting to get a better version of it.
I already have my Zelda 3DS so I dunno if I'll get an XL, but I wonder, is the quality just as good as the smaller version or is it degraded a little due to the larger screen?
I did and so far I'm not regretting it. I think the graphics look pretty much the same, not pixelated at all. But please don't hate me for buying one, I just really like it, that's all.
3DS is great but the 3DS XL is great but if you want to save money by the 3ds but you will be missing out on a lot of stuff extra features mainly the increase of the screen size
We find that out in September. However it will come out in November count on it. Nintendo said Fall 2012. Fall is Sept, Oct, and Nov. We find out in Sept and that gives 2 months for pre-orders and stores to get ready. As for the price. They said it would be priced well for what you get. $299.99 will be the cheapest it will be. And $349.99 will be the most it will be. Again count on it.
I agree that's what it should be and yes that's why m going to buy an XL but if Nintendo was aiming for people who didn't have one yet they would include a charger with the XL the reason they don't is because they expect people to be upgrading.
You can't do math either, apparently. The 3DS XL does not have a 7.6 inch screen. It is just less than 4.9 inches, similar in size to a PS Vita screen. You need to calculate the total AREA of the original 3DS and add 90% to the total AREA, not the longest dimension.
well im gonna get it i mean the 3ds has a small screen that is only a little bit bigger than the dsi so the 3d kinda of has a limit but the 3ds xl will offer a lot more visuals in game play especialy for games with big landscapes like OoT and samurai warriors
the 3DS XL actually has better power balance, the lowest handheld screen glare to date, its the same thickness as a regular 3DS, has a better layout and bigger buttons, and the image is amolst retained, making so that you cant tell the difference.
coooool
A rare Vito siting.
Nintendo guy Vito, Castlevania fan Vito, always with the hot Nintendo tips
Was that Vito talking about Castlevania?
Lol yes
So psyched for Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon. Luigi's Mansion was my first home console game waaaaaaay back.

0:53 I see Mario brought his lovely date to Comic-Con.
It's blowing my mind just looking at the 3ds xl!
wow that is so awesome i was gonna get a 3ds now i want the XL
Before Nintendo went to comic con it was "HipsterMario finds comic con to mainstream"
Congratulations! I'm really proud of you!
Because people might dislike the small screen and want a bigger version that's easier for their eyes.
@MsPorcupo you can adjust the strength of the 3d...
I have a nintendo 3ds xl and it AWESOME!
The Nintendo Show 3D intro sure is mighty fuzzy/blurry when you watch it on 3DS, but isn't when watching it on this. -_-
My birthday is August 19th!!!
How awesome.
The quality is amazing!
I did and so far I'm not regretting it. I think the graphics look pretty much the same, not pixelated at all. But please don't hate me for buying one, I just really like it, that's all.
They didn't even mention that Charles Martinet was there.
She is hilarious though. She had a sketch series and it was amazing
the 3dsXL is out yay!!!!!!!!!!
got the red model pre-ordered along with NSMB2
I have like 3 of these. Well, 2 New Nintendo 3DS XLs' and 1 regular 3DS XL.
I have a 3ds just a small one but even if it isn't big its still AWESOME !!!!!!!
ldlellsls?e?e?s??s!s!sls
I always wanted to go there.
Your right :/, Im pretty patient and I knew they were gonna do it this whole time.
8 days in europe july 28 CANT WAIT!!!
Is it me, or was Comic-con better than E3 this year?
01:20 I don't know why I laugh when I saw a Storm Trooper playing a 3DSXL lol xD
3DS is great but the 3DS XL is great but if you want to save money by the 3ds but you will be missing out on a lot of stuff extra features mainly the increase of the screen size
If the PSP or PS Vita are easy to carry around, so is the 3DS XL, considering they're about the same size when closed, the 3DS XL being smaller.
It's blowing my mind.
Haha they actually put my interview in the video! =D
1:20
I WANNA HUG THE DUDE IN THE PIT COSPLAY!!! XD

Tetrisboy64 - I thought the same thing. But then again, nothing is new, is just bigger.
i NEED that luigi costume !
How does one move inside that giant Kirby? I couldn't believe that was a costume!
Well, he did say to "do the math!!!"
2:40 Awesome Sheik costume.
I agree that's what it should be and yes that's why m going to buy an XL but if Nintendo was aiming for people who didn't have one yet they would include a charger with the XL the reason they don't is because they expect people to be upgrading.
Hah, I see me (Saria) trying to Move Like Jagger at 1:14 (or was it Maneater?)
Hey at least we are getting the XL =)

i always wait for the xl
I wanna hug Kirby
It's blowing my mind

I wish i was at a comic-con
I like how you saying i'm batman on a 3DXL video just to show

I'm so broke, I could cry.

it's not a game.its mario telling you about all of his advantures.i know cause i went to comic-con. it was a blasty.
well im gonna get it i mean the 3ds has a small screen that is only a little bit bigger than the dsi so the 3d kinda of has a limit but the 3ds xl will offer a lot more visuals in game play especialy for games with big landscapes like OoT and samurai warriors
Nintendo REALLY needs Sticker star to be playable.
Because then people will get confused if only the 3DS XL existed,thinking there is also a normal 3DS.
Wait where the legend of Zelda games! and that kingdom hearts game looked AWESOME !
patience my friend. wait till september, and all will be revealed.
They stated the battery will last much longer than the normal 3DS
So tempted to trade in my 3DS for the XL
CAN'T WAIT!!
I'd buy a 3DS XL mainly because its battery life is better than the original's
I'm not going to get it, but the aspect of not straining your eyes for the 3D is appealing.
I want the kirby costume
it's not a game, Mario just talks to you LIVE:D
I'm envious
Thank you for deiong new super Mario bros 2
Got the silver pre-ordered
I love Mario so mush
And I love Nintendo
darnit I wanna hug from Kirby
yea sure, he made alot of money for the past 25 or 26 years, and he got alot of money now so he will do whatever he wants
The Comic Con Ended
Dear Nintendo, Make an Extreme Green 3DS XL.
why is all the good stuff on the east and west coast im stuck beetween cleveland and chicago :P
the funny thing is, if you knew they were gonna do then why didn't you wait like alot people did.
I still think it was too soon for the XL should have been next year with a second thumb slider but whatcha gonna do
If they had the new smash bros game there, it would be twice as packed
I want a NSMB2 T-Shirt!
