Holy crap it's been out for 2 years already? I was looking into one on the deals coming up... super hyped, hope I can get one. Haven't played a Nintendo handheld in years.
The Creep yo bro same. I had the original DS and had so much fun but now it doesnt work so well anymore and the hinge doesnt work anymore. The 3DS is supposed to be 99 dollars so i think ill get that and that will be nice. Probably will get super smash bros too since that is lit
Probably going to get the XL version. Would be happy if there would be a special edition in combination with MM 3D. A violet version with a Majora's Mask print on the system would be gorgeous.
I also plan on getting the XL once I start working next year! And you're right it would be epic if there was MM 3D version!! I just wish there were face plates on the XL though. That's huge disappointment that there isn't an XL face plate.
No charger... Nintendo disappoints me! Even though I already own a regular 3DS and would'n have a problem if I decided to upgrade. They have to consider that there are people out there who'll buy these as their first handheld!
That would be true...but the console has sold around over 40 million units, so I don't think not having a charger will be a problem. Would be nice, but definitely not needed, since you can purchase the chargers from online retailers like Amazon and eBay at an affordable price.
There are no Wiimotes for the WiiU, and they knew people had Wiimotes anyways so it's cheaper. Plus, doing this shows that you SHOULD already have a charger by now because in day and age everyone has it some form or another.
DarkMatter you don't need the wiimotes to play most wiiU games. Without a charger, you're forced to buy one. I do have a charger.. But what about the people who never had a DS? I don't know why, but I never trusted chargers from third party manufacturers. I'm always afraid that they're gonna damage my device's battery as happened with my phone. (Excuse me for bad grammar)
I got one, despite me wanting to wait and see if Nintendo would release another, better, 3ds. I came to the conclusion though that there's no way Nintendo would make another system that has exclusive games, so I figured that even if another model had come out, that the new 3ds xl would be good enough for me. After having the original for years, and skipping the 3ds xl and 2ds, I finally have a model worth upgrading, and I must say it's better, a LOT better. I used to get hand cramps from the old 3ds for being too small, and having sharp corners, this model is so much more comfortable to hold, and I don't have to charge it every five seconds. I used to rarely use the 3d but now I use it all the time. It's a really nice little system.
The console had too much water, an unpredictible AI, it was Too Hard to play games on cus it is not xbone and the multiplayer is totally broken but hey, I'm a huge Nintendo fanboy so here's a 8.8 anyway!" - Ryan McCaffrey and Alien Isolation 5.9 IGN
***** His comment really went over your head didn't it? He's not bashing the 3DS but rather he is using sarcastic humor to mock IGN. Secondly "too much water" is a meme that spawned after IGN reviewed the Pokémon Alpha Sapphire/Omega Ruby game. Just to speed you up to things you might want to watch this Pokemon Alpha Sapphire/Omega Ruby Review: ua-cam.com/video/q2ACvQpH108/v-deo.html So please, next time don't just jump at people's throats and try to understand what their comments relate to. Have a nice day :)
I just got my red one today, all I can say is it's amazing and I love it. For a longtime nintendo fan since the late 90's I really like this new console. I got to transfer my NNID and my games to my new one too. :)
the word 'handheld console' can apply to all consoles when you think about it. you could play games on a ps4 if you are holding the console in your hands.
+Cullum Curnow No it can't. A handheld console is specifically a console that IS a controller and doesn't need anything else like a TV screen or a port.
Walrider "hand held" doesn't necessarily mean "carry". You can still hold the console in your hands when its plugged in and classify it as " hand held"
I've heard that the reason why the XL isn't getting interchangeable face plates is because they're going to keep making different special editions of it. Kinda smart for them but it sucks for the people who like the XL more and want different face plates, like me.
I highly recommend it i loved the aesthetics of the normal 3ds and color choices better but once I swapped it for a 3Ds XL the bigger screen definitely made all the difference I can't see myself playing on anything smaller now.
we are in 2020 and i will soon get a new 3ds xl, i loved the nintendo ds, and with the backward compatibility on 3ds with the ds games and the many exclusive games, i will surely love it
This was actually a REALLY good, informative review! This comes from a person that generally doesn't watch IGN's reviews for the reviewer's opinion, but just for the bits of gameplay in the video. Nice job!
I have to say, on the N3DS the C-Stick makes SOME sense, but the XL it seems like it should have enough room for a complete analog stick. The C Stick should also maybe be relocated to the bottom of the XYAB buttons. Otherwise, it seems awesome, and I definitely wanna play some Smash Bros on it. Smash Bros is awesome enough on the 3DS, imagine the awesomeness of the new C Stick, the new LZRZ buttons, and the greater internals. And the other games too.
Fun Fact: Hover Above any app/folder on your homescreen. Then move the screen until it snaps. Something will happen to the icon on the top screen. Whether it just spins or it jumps. (This may not work with games)
Why no charger?? They can't possibly say it's to "cut costs" because cutting costs is one thing but skipping out on giving you something that you NEED to play the system is just ridiculous. And I'm sure it'll be just as much or maybe even more than the original 3DS/3DS XL.
Probably because there have nearly been 50 million 3ds sold since the console launched 4 years ago so they probably didn't pack in a charger because most people will have their original 3ds charger so they can just use that
There are no Wiimotes for the WiiU, and they knew people had Wiimotes anyways so it's cheaper. Plus, doing this shows that you SHOULD already have a charger by now because in day and age everyone has it some form or another.
Brandon Miller That statement isn't entirely true, as NintendoLand DOES need a Wiimote and if it doesn't have Wiimote+ you can't play 40% of the games they offer. Also, the charger for the WiiU gamepad is the same for 3DS... So... ._.
I think the new version is an all around improvement. Especially the 3d. It's finally worth buying the games because of that! So I bought a new xl one. I sold the original one back when there was nothing for games.
they should have moved the c-stick under the 4 buttons(where the start button is) and made it a bit bigger and moved the start button some where else, maybe to the other side next to the dpad
Looking back at this, I realize another reason why Nintendo said they are not going back to a "1 portable 1 home console" format after the switch The pressure to keep both consoles alive and give both new models and big 1st party games every year is INCREDIBLY BIG. This shows how the 3DS got much more attention then the Wii U because it was not doing 2 well. Im happy they aren't going back beacuse how many times you can create new DS models.
Nice video! I just ordered one, although I dislike the absence of an ac adapter so I had to spend more money but it looks great in love the stylus pen and 3D feature I think the thumb pad will be GREAT for games like super smash brothers and poke money x and y.
I'm getting one for Christmas :3 I only have a DS lite that I got in around 2007/08, Now the stylis for it had broken a bit so it doesn't stay in the holster, the wrist strap has fallen off, the screens are rubbish and you can see a sort of crease like mark in the corners, there's a crack on the back of it, a bit of the plastic it's made out of has chipped off beside the power lights and if you aim the screen at an angle towards you it will slam shut... I think it's about time for an upgrade, right?
I wish they released the smaller version in NA. If it was not for the region locking I would have imported one. I feel like we got the short end of the stick on this one.
+Hanah Mootooveeren it is really good and much better than the old 3DS btw you should get one ad well it is bigger and faster as well it is so cool like I said before you should get it
Love how they glossed over the fact that the SD memory card is now underneath the New 3Ds and only accessible by unscrewing the bottom of the device. Was totally gonna upgrade to this but no card slot is a deal-breaker for me. I'm sure many other people have a separate device for music but I like being able to listen to my tunes off the 3Ds and be able to add and delete songs off the memory card at my leisure.
I don't understand why the cartridge spot was moved to the bottom. Seems like an easy way to accidentally remove your game while playing. And the stylus was perfect where it was on the old XL. Plus, he failed to mention any Amiibo support. Basically, this review has confirmed my belief that the New 3DS is just a petty cash grab. The 3DS has only been around for 3 years and we're already getting a system that is only slightly more powerful, has a clumsy C stick, and is going to have exclusive games that have ZERO backwards compatibility with previous 3DS models. I don't know about you, but that pisses me off. I'm sticking with my old XL. No need to get in on this bullshit.
It's good in some games, but it's mainly just a gimmick only worth using when you're plugged in to a power source. Otherwise it's just a great way to lose battery life.
i had a vtech portable as a kid, and on that system, you can switch the button and d-pad for left and right handed people. i think this idea should be expanded for a DS. with modular button modules, so if your playing a shooter, circle pad on the top right and top left, and maybe the abxy buttons on the bottom right, a platformer, d-pad on top left, and buttons on top right like original DS., it could be a awesome idea that would allow for more comfortable forms of gameplay, and would be a "gimic" worth using
me,being a dutch 10 year old that only once played a game on his uncles gamecube looks at this review and is like wow the handheld consoles really got a lot better.
That moment when you're quarantined and you want to play pokemon on your old 3ds.
For me it's Mh4u😄
True

This guy is probably the Best reviewer IGN has had in a long time. Great review
If only if he reviewed Pokémon ORAS, the Pokémon ORAS review would have been better and it's rating would have boosted to 8.5+/10.

Me2, at least we have all the awesome games from the start :D
SuperMario Logan
lol
Should have gotten one black friday, they were $100 at walmart
I like how he was talking about how great the 3D was while showing clips with the switch off.
Ikr
They need to. It would look blurry on camera.
They should have splatoon for this.
That would be great. No need for motion controlling the camera, just use the c-stick.
So cool
It would also be good if they had Mario maker as well.
A 3ds couldn't handle splatoon. It could have somewhat worked but a 3ds is no where near as powerful as a wii u.

I got one, despite me wanting to wait and see if Nintendo would release another, better, 3ds. I came to the conclusion though that there's no way Nintendo would make another system that has exclusive games, so I figured that even if another model had come out, that the new 3ds xl would be good enough for me.

Can’t believe it’s been 8 years it doesn’t feel like almost a decade since release
The no face plates on the xl is a good thing for me cause that leaves a possibility for a cool special edition one I'd want
the word 'handheld console' can apply to all consoles when you think about it. you could play games on a ps4 if you are holding the console in your hands.
I'm just taking the piss of the concept of "hand held"
+christian colon guys. He means that you can just hold it. And do nothing. Cuz I it's a console and you can carry it. But you can do nothing.

Was considering looking into an XL, I love my 3DS but the screen is often too small to adequately see everything that's going on - especially in SSB.

Buying one today! The last handheld gaming device i had was the first DS so im super hyped!!
My body is ready but my money isn't ready
Seems like a great redesign. Only downside I feel is the lack of a second circle pad, and the fact that the XL can't swap faceplates.
so much affordable than the vita :O may get the 3ds xl for random boredom moments.
Jed Capitan also personally speaking, Nintendo games are a lot better and a lot more fun than the vita games out there.
This system looks so neat, I already love my 3DS so I might get this one when my Control Pad finally dies.

Looks like Nintendo managed to get lucky enough to send two review units to IGN that both have dual IPS panels. What are the odds
Lmao, so shady they used two types of screens
My 3ds has both tn panels but honestly they aren't that bad compared to tn panels on laptops. Probably because it's smaller.
The music is Digital Drive by JC Lemay
Too much 3d images
7.8/10 ign !
they should have moved the c-stick under the 4 buttons(where the start button is) and made it a bit bigger and moved the start button some where else, maybe to the other side next to the dpad
Why couldn't they up the resolution on the top screen? From 240p to at least
480p?
It would be too hard considering previous games were built for 240p, and in general it might be too hard.
Looking back at this, I realize another reason why Nintendo said they are not going back to a "1 portable 1 home console" format after the switch
The pressure to keep both consoles alive and give both new models and big 1st party games every year is INCREDIBLY BIG. This shows how the 3DS got much more attention then the Wii U because it was not doing 2 well.
Im happy they aren't going back beacuse how many times you can create new DS models.

It's Official Hentai.....Maybe.
considering the price tag of a 128gb vita card, you could just buy a tons of 3ds games, redeem their CN codes and have more free games with the coins

The review also forgot to mention about the memory card slot. You would need a screwdriver to open the hinge.
So when ur playing games, no one can pop out the cartridge and throw it out the window.
Iron Tager When you won`t be able to play Xenoblade Chronicles on the old 3ds you`ll cease to call the New 3DS a cash grab
Am I the only one that couldn't care less about having the 3D effect?
i never use my 3d effect
I think I'm the only one who DOES care.
AltoRoark99
yeah you are
It's good in some games, but it's mainly just a gimmick only worth using when you're plugged in to a power source. Otherwise it's just a great way to lose battery life.
AltoRoark99 I care as well. If Nintendo got rid of the 3D, I would have very hard time considering the purchase of this new system.
What is that about charging cable? What I understand is that you have to buy the cable seperatly... This can't be true right? he says it around 4:20
Sorry fellas, too much water. 7.8

i had a vtech portable as a kid, and on that system, you can switch the button and d-pad for left and right handed people. i think this idea should be expanded for a DS. with modular button modules, so if your playing a shooter, circle pad on the top right and top left, and maybe the abxy buttons on the bottom right, a platformer, d-pad on top left, and buttons on top right like original DS., it could be a awesome idea that would allow for more comfortable forms of gameplay, and would be a "gimic" worth using
7 out of 10 comments are the water meme.
me,being a dutch 10 year old that only once played a game on his uncles gamecube looks at this review and is like wow the handheld consoles really got a lot better.
