The original 3DS launch didn't quite go to plan. Initial sales were disappointing, but after cutting the handheld's price and releasing an XL model, Nintendo were able to turn their latest handheld's fortunes around.

Incredible game library; Much improved 3D; Faster processor is great

Nintendo's online system needs work; Interface still a little clunky; Awful camera

This was bought for my nephew who had a DSi XL, but it's buttons quit working. So, we bought this one as a replacement with the warranty money we got back from Walmart. It's a nice large size with great graphics and he loves the switch on the side to change the view from 3D to regular.

its the best portable gaming console ever launched. pros: 1 huge game library and awesome games 2. better battery life than the nintendo 3ds smaller version 3. 3d screen 4. bigger and better 5. touch screen helps in better gaming experience 6.

Same as the other 3DS XL's except for the design which looks great, a simple design that really works. The only downside is as with the Pokemon X and Y consoles you don't get the same with it but its not advertised as coming with the game so that isn't really a problem.

This system was bought for my 14 year old son and he continues to tell me how happy he is that he has it. He is playing it ALOT and says the Graphics are awesome. He showed me the 3D effect and I thought it was so cool.

Remember when you used to loving play on your old, grey Gameboy? Neither do I; it's dead to us now. THe new 3DS XL is all 3DS XL, all the time. Games and videos are visible in big, sexy screens, and you're no longer subject to the tyranny of fiddly little buttons: you touch ans scroll on the...

Since it's inception in 1989, Nintendo's Gameboy, and all subsequent forms of it, has been the reigning champion of the handheld gaming world. Even after Sony joined the race in 2005 with the PSP, the odds still favored Nintendo.

finally big enough screen; still small enough to carry around; dual screens; 3D; great games

should have been HD

If you care at all about nintendo and it's 1st party games, you should really take a look at the 3DS XL, at least until the Wii U picks up :)

Great library of 1st party games; and way cheaper now than it was when it came out in 2011 (got mine for 175

Lack of 3rd party support; really good use a second thumb pad (vibration would've been cool too); and battery life needs to be better for a mobile device

This is a great game console to play. The main screen is great. I love the screen sizes they are amazing and bigger than the regular Three Demension game console, and I love the touch screen. The games are cool. And are fun to play. I like the fact that it comes with a Memory card.

Its three Demension, Bigger Plays other games screens; memory card; Great game play; its great

None this is a great game console to play; and fun to play; none none

The Nintendo 3DS XL is a nice handheld gaming system. The 3D screen works very well considering you don't have to wear glasses to view it in 3D. It has a 3D slider to increase/decrease the 3D effects. You can turn it off if you do not like it, but then you basically have a Nintendo DS XL.
