I will be getting the xl and not selling the smaller one because where I live not much people have it and the streetpass is a miss. so i will carry over my stuff to the xl and will use the 3ds to have new miis and collect my puzzle pieces faster.
.... and then there's the option (and room for) a 2nd circle pad plus the standard buttons. That way the old 3DS users wouldn't have to buy a new system and game developers could create new games that would do really well with two circular pads. For a little more money Nintendo could've made a lot more money. The terrible cameras, the ugly colors, no charger for the European and Asian communities, the screen resolution.... All if improved would have made this system an incredible experience that people would pay extra for. Instead, decisions were made at Nintendo that show that they are losing touch with their customer base (decisions that quite frankly are dishonorable), and they are going to have to fight hard to earn back our trust. One has to seriously wonder what they were thinking.
I am upgrading as should everyone
A second stick isnt needed
and everyone owns a battery pack already
