****The Nintendo 3DS Thread****

I think it has, saw a review where the guy says the old one would die but this one lasts much longer.

Were they both new units (thus not utilising an old battery). I find it hard to believe nintendo would willfully not market an improvement. I'll be happy if true?
 
Nicer overall design and slightly bigger screen too for the smaller version

C-Stick which acts as a second analogue stick, mainly used for rotating the camera in games like Monster Hunter.

ZR and ZL buttons act as R2 and L2 buttons on a normal gamepad.

Faster - Loading times and overall speed of the OS is much faster. Some new games like Xenoblade Chronicles will be exclusive to the New 3DS.

3D head tracking means the 3D effect won't be ruined by moving your head slightly. Also works in the dark.

Interchangeable face plates.

Amiibo support.

There may be some I missed but they seem to be the main points.

Cheers!
 
Glad I got my order in of the Majoras Mask XL, they have now sold out, I actually ordered 2 as I will try recoup some costs back. (I actually tried to order 3 but was told only allowed 2).
I know this process is often frowned upon but if I was interested in making profits I'd have tried to order 10 or more. Ideally I jsut want to cover the amount so I don't have to sell my Fire Emblem XL.

Where did you buy it from? I know its sold out but I couldn't find any UK retailers selling this yet :(
 
Managed to get an order in on Nintendo and Amazon FR for the MM Edition. Won't be scalping and in two minds whether to just cancel the Amazon order.

If i keep both orders I'll sell one on members market at RRP. :)

I've held out on a 3DS all these years but i think this is the one to get. Can't wait to play all the Zeldas.

Official UK Nintendo store. Amazon UK may have some available soon as well don't forget.



Gutted I was really hoping to get a UK version and it seems just out of my reach. Does it actually come preinstalled with the game? I know in the USA it doesn't but someone said it doesn't here either but others say it does what's the truth?

Beware, I did this on something early days of MM and the guy put it on eBay as soon as he got. I think it was a FF XIII thing, I forget.

Weird I was on there website all yesterday and today.

That's not the site sadly, the store is separate: http://store.nintendo.co.uk/nintendo-3ds/the-legend-of-zelda-majoras-mask-3d.list

It's been on there for a good 6 hours so there was quite a long time to buy one. It was still in stock 30 mins ago when I last checked so you must have been really unlucky to have missed it. Amazon UK may have some up to order soon though.

I haven't had a chance to reorder through Quidco...guess I can't now lol
 
Yeah Logsi I'd try just pick out a buyer yourself and approach them, someone you think won't resell if you're only looking to sell it for retail :) Boss of you to sell it for RRP for whoever gets it
 
Can you do much with your friends on 3DS? I've never really bothered, but if anyone wants to add me fc is 0302-0523-2312 or drop me yours
