The editors liked
The screen. Sure
It's not as high res as you'd maybe wish for
But that's because it's locked into the same resolution as last generation's smaller screens. The stats are 800x240 for the top screen
And 320x240 for the bottom
Improved 3D performance through the larger screen size
Improved battery life
Improved buttons and overall feel
A solid portable game console with a lot of available past and present games
Much bigger 3D display
Larger touchscreen is easier to use
Better
More ergonomic design
Colossalsize screens make old and new games look their best. Larger form factor and battery life make a more comfortable
Convenient experience. Double the included memory
Bigger screen improves the 3D effect significantlyImproved battery life under some conditionsMore comfortable to hold and use
The editors didn't like
The button size and layout. While the 3DS XL's larger size definitely makes it more comfortable to hold than the 3DS
The buttons still feel oddly small. The joystick and directional pad are arranged so you can use either
But that results in neither actu
It fits in the pocket
But barely
Kids might not like the larger size
Display resolution looks worse
More pixelated
Difficult to recommend over an iPad or smartphones
Adding a right thumb stick would have made sense
$30 more than original 3DS
Software library is still weak
Games still cost each. Still no account system. Still waiting for Nintendo to unleash the floodgates of cheap digital content instead of trickling out zero to three games a week
Digital content still lackingNo secondary analog stickNot the most powerful of handheld hardware
Abstract: Opinion to all GadgetsIf you're a gaming enthusiast you'd most probably be aware of the top brands that sell popular gaming systems like Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft. Consoles from these manufacturers engrain and inspire gamers due to the creative cornuc...

It depends. If youve already got a 3DS, maybe not. But if youre looking at the current generation of handhelds, the 3DS XL is definitely the Nintendo device to get. And while its clearly behind Sonys PS Vita in specs, the two-screen interface offers a...
Abstract: Nintendo ‘s handheld console refreshes have followed a predictable pattern over the years, firmly centred around Nintendo ‘s ‘bigger is better' philosophy. The Nintendo 3DS XL – successor to the original 3DS – is no exception to Ninty's tried and tested g...
Abstract: I've had the original Nintendo 3DS for quite a while now, almost a year, and for the most part I loved it. The 3DS was Nintendo's entry into the 3D portable gaming world, but without the tell-tale glasses. You just have to keep your vision within a narrow...
Y todo ello pese a que las mejoras extras que Nintendo podría haber presentado con esta portátil para hacerla redonda – sistema operativo, resolución de pantalla y un segundo stick analógico – se han quedado fuera inexplicablemente. Seguramente entonces e...
Un peu comme avec sa DSi XL, Nintendo a peaufiner son produit presque qu’au maximum. La 3DS XL offre une meilleure prise en main, des écrans plus grands et de bien meilleures qualités, tout en conservant une taille qui entre encore dans les poches de j...

Abstract: Un peu plus d'un an après sa sortie, la 3DS de Nintendo se voit remplacée par un modèle XL, plus large, mais également mieux fini. Son but : faire table rase des (nombreuses) erreurs du passé.PublicitéEt les erreurs, on pourra dire que la 3DS de première...
3D plus immersive, Prise en mains plus confortable, Plus autonome, Design plus réussi...
mais moins sophistiqué, Où est le second stick ?, Où est le chargeur ?, Définition d'écran un peu juste
La 3DS XL gomme certains défauts de la 3DS et s'avère globalement meilleure en tout. On préfère son format (plus confortable), ses grands écrans (plus immersifs), son autonomie (rallongée d'une heure) et sa finition (qui tolère mieux les traces de doigts)...
Après avoir joué avec la 3DS XL, le retour sur une 3DS est un peu une sorte de non-sens, on a l'impression de régresser et de revenir en arrière. L'expérience de jeu est meilleure, la prise en main aussi et je ne peux que vous la conseiller si vous jouez...
gameplay Nintendo, prise en main, confort, autonomie, taille, sobriété du design. Les
pas de chargeur, définition un peu faible pour ces diagonales d’écrans, pas de deuxième stick analogique.
Comme pour la DSi, Nintendo livre une version XL de sa console de jeu portable : la 3DS. Une version « king size » de son aînée qui ajoute du confort de jeu mais perd en niveau de détails. ...
