monkeyhead64Posted 2/6/2013 1:03:42 PM | I traded in my original for the XL as soon as it came out and I loved the bigger screens. But it did seem cheap compared to the original.
Last week my XL got stolen so I need to buy a new one. But I am starting to think I might just buy an original one again. For one it has a better colour selection, is a bit more compact so fits onto my pockets unlike the XL and I think the original design is much better.
I did like playing original DS games on a bigger screen in their native resolution rather than the tiny boxes on the original.... but then I am thinking it wasnt all that bad when it was stretched to the 3DSs resolution anyway.
Im just keen to hear other peoples opinions on what the prefer.
Thanks |
SkizzePosted 2/6/2013 1:06:31 PM | I am perfectly satisfied with my original 3DS. I dont feel the need to upgrade as it wont provide me with any additional game play value aside from larger screen, but that isnt nearly enough to warrant a 200 dollar purchase on my part. --- DeviantART: skizze-filadelfo.deviantart.com Tumblr: skizzefiladelfo.tumblr.com |
badbadkittyPosted 2/6/2013 1:08:08 PM | I traded in my regular 3ds for an XL a couple months ago. I was finally able to play RE Revelations and actually see what I was aiming at. That little bit of extra screen I found to be a great help to me. Personally I think they could have gone even bigger. |
dcaoKOPosted 2/6/2013 1:09:18 PM | I've stated this on the other thread, but I'll only upgrade if there are special edition bundles. Charizard XL?!? Instant buy for me. |
teamaquashockPosted 2/6/2013 2:56:32 PM | I do, although I have nothing against the XL.
Everyone on this board seems to have civil wars arguing that XL is "required" to play 3DS games.
I like the original so much I might get the FE Bundle. --- Palutena: "I really can't imagine you being in a "melee". Pit: "That's because I wasn't -_-" |

CurryfiendPosted 2/6/2013 5:33:39 PM | 3DS XL is good if you have big hands, original is better if you have smaller hands. Mine are small so I prefer the regular 3DS especially since there's no way I could play Kid Icarus on the XL --- Don't hate me because I'm beautiful ~ f00had http://i46.tinypic.com/2zg87ds.jpg |
BearpowersPosted 2/6/2013 5:35:11 PM | I like that it's matte, I seriously hate gloss on anything that isn't a screen.
The DSi had a sexy matte finish that I loved.
I hate the 2 NA colors though. |

I hate the 2 NA colors though. We have 3 here Red Blue and Silver, but still no good... I did see we had the white one over xmas but it was only for limited time... I dont know if white would be any good coz it would start to discolour i reckon |
