The editors liked

  • Great 3D graphics on the go and plenty of games at a variety of prices
  • Handy new controls
  • Stable 3D display
  • Faster loading speeds
  • Supports amiibo toys
  • Face-tracking 3D effect works
  • With far superior 3D experience compared with 3DS and 3DS XL. Second analog stick. Solid build. Faster performance.
  • The 3D screens are improved by new face-tracking
  • And the larger size offers a less cramped viewing experience. Internal tweaks and updates add a behind-the-scenes boost

The editors didn't like

  • New
  • Colored face buttons might be hard to see in lower light
  • Screwed-in microSD slot
  • No charger included
  • No AC adapter in the box. Second analog stick is stiff and not very precise. 3D mode still isn't perfect
  • And not for everyone
  • The poor battery life hasn't improved. Having to remove the back of the console to change the SD card is a poor design choice and the legacy data transfer process is infuriating. Also
  • There's no AC charger in the box -- you have to buy one separately

  • Abstract:  For a couple of years we at Kotaku have deemed Nintendo's 3DS as an essential piece of gaming hardware. And for decades, new iterations of Nintendo hardware have immediately rendered older units obsolete. Things are different this time around.We still thi...

  • From my time with New Nintendo 3DS XL, I walked away mostly impressed. It's not a monumental leap forward, but rather a solid refinement on an already great handheld. The most significant upgrade is the Super-Stable 3D, and I think the new system is worth...

  • Face-tracking 3D effect works, with far superior 3D experience compared with 3DS and 3DS XL. Second analog stick. Solid build. Faster performance.
  • No AC adapter in the box. Second analog stick is stiff and not very precise. 3D mode still isn't perfect, and not for everyone
  • Its name might not make it clear, but the New Nintendo 3DS XL is a solid step up from and worthy replacement to the original 3DS and 3DS XL....

  Published: 2015-02-03, Author: Jacob , review by: bgr.com

  • Abstract:  I've owned a Nintendo 3DS ever since the day it launched. It's not the most inventive or the most attractive portable on the market, but it features an incredible selection of first-party and third-party content. But its physical limitations have always b...

  • Abstract:  Now we get the New Nintendo 3DS XL. Already out in Japan (as is the regular-size New 3DS, which isn't making the trip overseas), it hits stores February 13 for $200. But while its low-effort name leaves something to be desired, this is actually the handhe...

  • Abstract:  We're still a couple of weeks out from the proper release of the New Nintendo 3DS XL here in America, but I was lucky enough to get an early review unit Overall I really dig the new design, and I think you will too Here's a quick rundown of ten specific...

  • The massively improved 3D more than makes up for a relatively small list of updates and some frustrating design choices....

  Published: 2015-01-15, Author: Brendan , review by: cgmagonline.com

  • Abstract:  Nintendo has done it again. With a saturated market and numerous iterations of the hardware, they are pushing out a new version of the 3DS. Back in August, when Nintendo first announced the new system, I was questioning how this new system would really do...

  • It's the games that make the system, right? That's especially true with the Nintendo 3DS, which judged on its technical merits isn't a particularly great bit of hardware. The graphics are well behind those of the PlayStation Vita, the 3D effect is finic...

  Published: 2015-01-29, review by: techlife.net

  • Abstract:  First thing’s first: in keeping with Nintendo’s recent reputation for confusing its customers, the New Nintendo 3DS does not come bundled with a charging device. It’s a baffling decision, and one Christmas present buying parents should be forewarned about...
