The New 3DS' facial tracking makes for a hugely improved 3D gaming experience. Its new analog stick is appreciated and the clip-on covers add a lot of style
All of the excellent features of the New Nintendo 3DS XL (except with smaller screens)

If Minecraft: New Nintendo 3DS Edition existed within a vacuum, where a version on mobile devices wasn't available, this game wouldn't be a hard sell. But that's not the case...

Why is the power button on the front edge? I'm always worried it's going to turn off in my pocket. It hasn't yet, but just you wait, Advertisement, Why is the stylus on the front? In the old model, it used to lie on the right-side, making it easier to pu
Yes. If you dont already have a 3DS and you want one, this is the one you want. If you have an older 3DS, you should still buy one—just not right away. This New 3DS is better in almost every way, but your current handheld plays all the same games, has al...

3D screen works better, is more enjoyable to use, Secondary analog pad offers richer control options, Upgraded processor does everything faster
Some games work differently on the last-gen 3DSes, Customizable plates only offered on the smaller New 3DS, Buying games and apps is still a chore

3D effect is vastly improved, Much faster performance, Swappable faceplates are cool, New control additions mostly work well
Screen tech still outdated in other ways, Improved cameras remain unusably bad, C-stick doesn't work for all types of games, XL model omits faceplates
More times than not, the Verge score is based on the average of the subscores below. However, since this is a non-weighted average, we reserve the right to tweak the overall score if we feel it doesn't reflect our overall assessment and price of the produ...
New 3D is vastly better, Second analogue nub is long overdue, Still relatively affordable
Battery hasn't really improved, Processor bump divides old 3DS owners from new
