New 3DS ..HMMMM

Nintendo announced today that they will be unveiling a new 3ds. Not sure what to say about this.  It'll release first in Japan of course,  around October 11th. It has buttons. Buttons that look hijacked from an Xbox controller and tossed in a color/letter spinner.

The screen and camera are improved.  In the internal side things have also received an upgrade for a faster system and better graphics. There have been 'bumpers' added and anot her analog stick, presumably for camera control.

There are supposedly games that will be exclusive to this 3DS/3DXL set. Which it better. At 160/180, people would need a real reason to abandon the current system. I can't say for sure  Nintendo has given them that reason. I can't say I'll be running out for one. I will wait to see the exclusives. Xenoblade Chronicles is a good start.
