CooInTheZoo Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 If Nintendo could find a way to make the XL look as good/better than the original and with a higher pixel density I would snap one up in a heartbeat. I do feel that the screen on my 3DS is a little small, but I'm not desperate to upgrade it. That £109ish deal for an XL is very tempting though.
Tales Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 To comment on this 3DS/XL discussion, all I know is that I am not going to buy Nintendo's next handheld at launch. Who says they don't milk....
f00had Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 I prefer the original 3DS cause it's smaller and lighter so I can put it in my pocket and play Kid Icarus without using that silly stand But if you're a home gamer then the XL is probably better
Josh64 Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Our Tesco is 24 hours I know man but I don't know if any click and collect staff will still be in! Whenever I go in late there aren't that many workers!
S.C.G Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 ^ A step in the right direction towards account unification and games/content recovery? I sure hope so.
Dcubed Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 Makes sense. You need a NNID to sign up for Miiverse anyway and it's coming to the 3DS by the end of the year...
madeinbeats Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 I think hulu and YouTube apps are a bit late. Nintendo really should be getting these basic services on the go ASAP. Same with iPlayer on the Wii U... where please?
Cube Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 I just entered the Wii Plaza thing and was greeted by a load of people from last year's NE meet up.

Ramar Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 Just took advantage of the Tesco deal too! £114.95 delivered is a proper bargain. Had a few euros over from my holiday, thought I might as well treat myself. Does the DSi charger work with it?
Ramar Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 It sure does. Brilliant. Thanks. If only my local GAME had Fire Emblem in stock. I've got some points and gift cards to rid myself of.
flameboy Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 Has anyone ever got a message that looks like this? I can't read it till a specified date and it doesn't tell me that date but the dial keeps moving and it's now at the quarter to mark....

Kaytee Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 I've got that at the moment. I assumed it was for either E3 or Animal Crossing but since you're in Canada AC is already out for you so it can't be that...
Kaepora_Gaebora Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 (edited) Yeah I have that too. Wait, aren't there rumours of an announcement of sorts tomorrow? Perhaps they have dropped the MEGATON in our letter boxes!... I thought it was for E3 at first or AC, if it isn't one of them, what could it be? Edit: Nintendo of Europe tweeted this morning to expect suprise visits and content through steet pass and letterbox. Obviously we have had Iwata, Aonuma and Konno come visit, could this be part of the suprise content? I've had mine since Sunday. Edited June 12, 2013 by Kaepora_Gaebora

I can't read it till a specified date and it doesn't tell me that date but the dial keeps moving and it's now at the quarter to mark.... Yeah, had lots of them, basically for every 2 real days that pass the clock counter moves 15 minutes, so yours at the quarter to mark will take 2 days to reach the top and finally be openable.
yesteryeargames Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Awful news regarding mario golf it's now out in 2014
flameboy Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 I'm sure this has been said before...but it's so dumb how you have to quit out of a game to read a swapnote message...
Mokong Posted June 15, 2013 Posted June 15, 2013 I mentioned this to some of the guys on MH3U that it seems the outer cams on my 3DS are not working. I don't know when it happened or why/how. I should have know back when they updated the Letterbox App to allow you take pictures to add to Letters from within Letterbox I noticed then that I couldnt take pics with the outer cam... but at the time I just thought it was a glitch in Letterbox and left it (never really use the camera) But the other day I was out an had my 3DS with me and thought I'd take some 3D pics as I thought the area I was in might give me some good 3D pics but when I started the Camera app... nothing but a black screen. Well I have the HUD but esentianlly just a black screen... I can switch to the inner cam and that works but then switching back to the outer cams causes the software to freeze. I can still press the Homer button and close the app though. Annoyingly since this must have happened before teh Letterbox Update (I just didn't think much of it not workin in Letterbox) it means it also has been like that before I sent to repair for my dodgey R button So if I had been bloody smart and tested the actual Camera App after it didn't work in Letterbox I could have had it fixed along with the R button. As it is though not gonna bother sending it back for repair just for the camera.... unless there is suddenly an AR game made that works and is somehow awesome
Ronnie Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 (edited) Just tranfering my original 3DS software to my new 3DS XL. Man the XL's screen is horrible resolution wise Menus look so bad EDIT: Ok, in-game isn't quite so bad Edited June 17, 2013 by Ronnie
Ollie Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 Doesn't look like any of the deals for the XL are still available I'll have to wait for the next round!
S.C.G Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 Doesn't look like any of the deals for the XL are still available I'll have to wait for the next round! Unless you were interested in the ones I have for sale... I still have two 3DS XL consoles boxed from when the console was first released - we had a lot of 3DS original consoles in the house so we traded them in at game when they had the deal on - so if you like I can sell you one for £155 including Special Delivery, obviously there are no full retail games on the systems plus the actual console codes have been registered elsewhere - only really a concern if you're concerned about stars or want to take part in the Monster Hunter promotion - but the lower than most retail outlets price-point should reflect this. Anyway, no pressure but if you're interested then you'd have a choice of either Blue or Silver and if you were looking to buy a retail game with it I could sell you either Zelda and/or Tales of the Abyss with it at a reduced price. Send me a PM if you're interested but feel free to shop around first but I think most people would probably agree that it's a fair price. : peace: Or as you say, you could wait for more 3DS XL deals to come around, but the offer's there anyway. : peace:
