Why You Should Get a 3DS XL

The 3DS XL is nothing but breath taking with the larger screens. They are 90% larger than the original 3DS.  The resolution is still the same but less of a strain on your eyes.  The difference in between these devices are the sizes and other specs. The headphone jack is located on the left side of the 3DS XL. The SD card slot and stylus are both on the right side of the system. The speakers are shaped different as well. The price of the 3DS XL is $199.99 starting August 19th in North America.

3DS XL no need for a 2nd Circle Pad

Gamers are furious and upset about the 3DS XL not having a 2nd Circle Pad.  Guys, there isn't enough games to add this 2nd circle pad button to the 3DS.  Ok, lets count how many games off hand that can really use the 2nd Circle Pad or Circle Pad Pro. Off top, just maybe 5 3DS games out there on the market. So you all really willing to go out on a limb and spend maybe 20-30 more dollars on the 2nd Circle Pad? Well if you dont already have the Circle Pad Pro.  But gamers, lets not make a big deal off this.  The 3DS has done a great job without it.  It's up to Nintendo to whether or not it needs to add the 2nd circle pad. If you dont want this handheld because its not the PS Vita, dont buy it.  Buy the PS Vita if thats what you all are upset about.  Bottom line is no 2nd Circle Pad to the 3DS.
