8 years ago....your video quality is better than many tech channels in 2023
Agree
What camera do u use ,?
Dude and some of the corn videos too my god!!!!
What? Video quality hasn't improved since 2015, we're still mostly using 1080p and 4k both of which were widespread when this video came out, so what's surprising? lol
If you dont own a 3ds, get the new XL. If you already own an original 3ds XL, there's no need to upgrade unless you want the better processor/ram and cstick nub.
Also the exclusive games for the new 3ds
From what I heard theres at most a very limited number that require it - Its like the N64 in that regard, With the RAM expansion there was only 2 games that was under requirement for it. And 1 game only had about 30% of the content availible without the expansion pack (4mb RAM) - edit - I actually treat it as 4 games for the system.
I am including StarCraft 64, which requires it to go for multiplayer, and the games expansion content of brood war (3 campaigns, new units etc.) If we call it 3 because of perfect dark. We should include a game that has a rough percentile of 50% being unavailable as well.
+Stasis Field for now. But like every other system that has put out an upgrade slowly "new" nintendo games will be easier to find then the ones that don't. I had to check 4 stores to find ocarina of time -.-
which are?
new 3ds xl can't be hack?
if you're like me and strictly play Pokemon, doesn't matter which 3DS XL you have, makes no difference.
Thanks I came here just for that. I was wondering if Pokemon Sun and Moon were gonna make any difference. But since the gameplay is slower, with turn based battles, I guess I shouldn't worry too much.
But who doesn't want something newer?😆
Plus the c-stick feels really nice and is a great addition imo
+MasterAc3 and it's great for smash bros
This comment is the reason i am now going to get the standard 3dsxl. thanks
oh no the Nintendo 3ds xl and new Nintendo 3ds xl are killing each other I need to call the ambulance

Hahahaha
They better not make another console RIGHT AFTER I buy the New Nintendo 3DS XL.
they are making a new nintendo console next year its called the nintendo nx
The sneak peek is coming out tomorrow.
Daniel Lee it's getting a sneak peek you idiot
omg you dont have to be rude god damnit u idiot
o-o this comment is old...I know there is a nintendo switch please don't continue to have an arguement on this comment
seems like I should consider a major update, haven't owned a different DS since the DS lite 😂😂
I didnt even own a Nintendo console before lol
brooklynk335 Hey man, If you're still considering an update I have one for sale on Ebay. It's a little pricier than most, but that's because it come with 14 games as well as a carrying case. These aren't cheap games either, you're talking some of the best games on the system as well as some virtual console classics. www.ebay.com/itm/131576395129?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649
brooklynk335 same with me man xD
+Billy Barton is the ds you have on eBay new or used?
+Billy Barton Sorry i didn't sell man.

MARS lmao that's really sad but don't feel alone I have a dsi..... And a 3ds.
MARS I have a (broken) DSi
I have a 3ds xl...
slendertale That's awesome.
It's been 5 years and I just figured out that the New Nintendo 3DS exists.
Same here
I thought I was the only one.
There's no way 😭
It's been 6 and I've found out that there's more than one 3ds and that the 2ds xl isn't the normal 2ds
6 years
I still have a DS lite maybe I should upgrade...
+fairlyunlit |-/
Yeah, you should. If you're broke you should try getting a 3ds for around $50 or a 3ds XL just to see if you like it. But if you're made of money just get the New 3ds, it's pretty much the same except better.
Same, also |-/ hey fren
+fairlyunlit no, its better to buy a 2ds if you are on a budget....
dude I know the feels, I played on a ds lite til 2013 then upgraded to a 2ds to save money but it broke so I went back to the lite but ive been wanting to play the new pokemon games lately so ive been shopping around lol
I have the DS lite too.. getting the new 3DS XL on my birthday
Excellent review thanks!!
Yes
When I got the limited edition supersmash bros 3ds XL and one week later the New 3ds XL monster hunter edition came out for exact same price...... i cried.......
i think the super smash bros one looks much better

very good comparison! I don't know too many you tubers that put this much detail and effort into their videos. thank you!
I think I'm getting one of these for Christmas so super excited for that :)
Thank you so much..!
That really helped me in my decision to buy the new 3DS Xl (LL) instead of the original 3DS XL.
this is the EXACT type of video i was looking for :D thank you!!
Excellent, the content was to the point, provided a nice intoduction and spared me to painfully suffer through any over the top theatric.
Anyone else waiting for Black Friday because they broke af😂
I get in Mario one

same right now , but sadly there's no good deals in France
Thank you for making this video; it was very informative.
Thank you for in the in depth comparison, it cleared up all my questions, thanks!
Thank you so much for this extremely informational video! It was very helpful!
I bought a New 3DS XL (Galaxy Design), but kept my old 3DS to give to my friend who has never had a hand held. My only problem is that the New 3DS XL doesn't come with a charger, so I have to use my old one, and go digging around my house to find my spare charger, or just buy a new one. The main reason I upgraded was because I've had that 3DS ever since the 3DS came out, and it has lately been starting to show with it taking forever to launch games and playing Pokémon in 3D.
That was nice of you. You could of maybe traded it in to save money but you gave it to your friend. Nice.
ExoCaulibur A: I know this friend IRL, and B: knowing him, he's not gonna sell it UNLESS he buys an upgrade in the future, in which would be fine to me, as I'm giving it to him to do what he wants with it. At the end of the day, I have my new 3DS XL, so I don't care what he does with it, but I know he won't sell it.
Muu Too u are a very nice person
Muu Too you're a very nice person.
Muu Too mine stopped working already but it has a warranty so maybe my grandma can get me the galaxy design my current one is black
i realized you didnt mention the amibo ability. thats one of the biggest pluses to this system
Does the amibo ability work for both versions of the 3DS XL?
@@streetkombat6088 yes, but on old 3ds xl you need to buy some tools to use the amibo, while the new version not
@@sadnessasf Good to know
Rich and complete explanation, very helpful, thank you
Hi, i’m David from France 👋🏼 Thank you for this perfect review / comparison. That was exaclty what i was looking for 🙏🏼
Thank you! Very helpful. I am going from the regular 3DS (not an XL) to the NEW 3DS for MHX and Pokémon Moon.
I'm really excited for Pokemon Sun and Moon!! AHHHH
Ditto! I'm getting back into Pokemon after 10+ years, the last one I played was Ruby.
Do you need the new 3ds for sun and moon
+Glitch nope
No problem I have already pre ordered my pokemon sum and moon and won't be getting my new 3ds XL until Christmas so I did my research
The major problem I have with the NN3DSXL is that the game cartridge and stylus are at the bottom, instead of the stylus on the side and game cartridge at the top.
I'm actually getting my New 3DS XL today. I'm so excited. :) Nice video.
And here I am buying a Nintendo ds in 2021 :D

Bought a new 3ds xl today since I lost my original 3ds xl
One thing that I like although quite simple and maybe not a big deal for most is that the stylus slot was added to the front, even if it is to the right a tad. As a left hander I pull my stylus out with my right hand and switch it to my left, this seems a tad better to that respect.
Are u still alive?
it's almost the end of 2021 but i just placed an order for a pre owned blue new 3ds xl :D
I love Choerry too.
I just bought one too. I had the first version from 2011 but it's so small I can't really enjoy it.
@@Doodieboy99oh hii! mine arrived last week and ive been spending more time with it than my switch. actually missed out on the older handhelds because of my parents so i'm glad i got it!
Thank you for making this video this video it helped me out big time I did not know the newer Nintendo 3ds XL had a smaller memory card I appreciate you making this video because I plan on buying a Nintendo 3ds XL the older version thanks again sincerely Mr. LITTLE BEAR
I really like the specific details explained here. It's enough for a sub. My request is: Can you do an Xbox One VS PS4 and Nintendo Switch VS PSP Vita?
Just got my first new 3ds xl hyrule edition console last week. It's just amazing handheld and feels comfortable In my hands as well :)
The only feature that makes me consider the new one, is the wider range of 3D. I have a had a few instances where when playing, if I shift even the slightest to the left or right the 3D becomes blurred and very hard to see. Do you guys think it is worth it to upgrade for that?
You ever get one?
@@AdhavR78 years later, scientists find evidence of humans waiting for an answer.
💀💀💀🍿🍿🍿
I got one today@@AdhavR7
cool@@isaac3000
Also curious if you ever got one 😆
Thank you for this video I needed it
I have the old 3ds but I only got it two years ago and it's working perfectly fine, as well as there aren't many new XL exclusive titles yet.
Don't forget about the wireless file transfer feature of the new model! You can wirelessly transfer files on and off the device like it was a normal network or USB drive
Wow never knew that about the 3ds hated unscrewing my back cover all these years lol
Honestly it's quite impressive how well games run and play on such low spec hardware
Amazing review, thanks a lot!
I was looking for a 3ds in general cuase I lost mine years ago and really really wanted a new one so this actually help a bit
Damn, got the new 3DS XL recently (what can I say, I like my handhelds abandoned by their maker, looking at you PS VIta and it's awesome community) and finding accessories for it is quite nightmarish, needed to confirm that the screen size is the same for protectors so here I am on a 6 years old video!
I don't know. I just recently got my old 3ds xl and I don't think I would upgrade. There isn't much of a difference and the differences themselves don't really matter to me.
+Sharmaine Leano u should upgrade.. They are making better games for the new 3ds
+Sharmaine Leano agreed! the only real differences are the new 3ds has more buttons! :v and whether they make new games for the new 3ds they're still playable on the original. :D
Nick Grannum O cool. Ignore everything I said then
i know that feel bruh..
+Nick Grannum Actually, there are games that are exclusive to the New 3DS/New 3DS XL, & thus not playable on the originals.
I got my new 3DS (FE Fates version) around last week. So far I don't regret my decision of upgrading. :) awesome video!
+Paul Hyden Jr. Oh yes it is
+Paul Hyden Jr. Nice! Good luck! 😁
Very thorough!
i know its petty but i wish the buttons were colored.. im not a native nintendo gamer i play xbox and pc but ive a 3ds for about a year and sometimes when button prompts come up i get confused since im so used to other lay outs.. this is fine since normally i can just look down but i game alot in dark/dim areas and colored buttons or buttons with some form of glow in the dark material would be brilliant... i know some of the new models have them but is it a region thing? like EU got the colors or something or is it special edition consoles.
I own a New 3DS XL, and I have to say it works pretty spectacularly. The 3D is comfortable and the c-stick actually gets used a lot in games such as Smash Bros and Majora's Mask. However, the smaller (and somewhat thicker at least the feeling) stylus is somewhat uncomfortable to use, but that isn't major. What is major is that the system does not come with an AC adapter, a charger, so keep that in mind. This a great improvement of the old 3DS, and if you're like me and didn't have the money around that time and didn't feel like it was worth it for crappy 3D (I ended up getting a 2DS), then get this system because it is fantastic. Be wary though, if you have problems with smudges then the complete glossy outside will drive you insane XD. Nonetheless, it is a beautiful system that was completely worth the money in my perspective.
8 years later. You were lucky to buy this system new at retail price. ;-;
@@tralpha9660 8 years later and I still have it! And it still works great! The little nub to control the camera is absolutely torn to shreds but that can be replaced. I thank my younger self for taking care of my electronics.
excuse me?! how the hell is the original 3ds crappy?! unless you're just talking about the 3d effects
@@blazinjadencompared to the model they preferred, I guess
I'm thinking of getting a new 3DS but I'm not sure if I should go with the regular new 3DS or the XL. I heard that on the XL the graphics are slightly worse because the image is stretched, and you can see the pixels better. Is this true?
This helped me out so much
I used to have the New 3DS XL and I absolutely loved it. Unfortunately I sold it to get a Switch, but at least now I bought my friend’s 2DS XL off of him.

Thank you for the informative video!
Great and informative video. Thank you,
I have to wonder if the new 3ds xl did not sell as well as they thought it would?
They sure cost a lot used now.
This is a really accurate and good review. Although in the boot-up test my 3ds xl boots up faster than your 3ds xl. So I found that a little inaccurate.
Very nice review , Thank you so much
Jeez, seven years ago. I remember drooling at the computer looking at these!
Yet another amazing video and very detailed! One question, where do you get all your products from as you have so much stuff yet must make less money from the video than you do from buying the product?
We usually buy most of our products and just keep them or sometimes sell them when we don't need them any more. Thanks for the question.
+MW Technology you sold the new 3dx and original 3dx yet?
+Danielcool86 Daniel Martinez 3ds*
StickyStick thanks for correcting me (in other words I hate you)
chill they were just correcting you
For the record, I really want to upgrade to this one. I play a lot of 3DS games and I want the c-stick for camera control in Monster Hunter and Majora's Mask (and probably other games in the future). I played around 6 hours of Monster Hunter 3 (my friends copy) and the way you controlled the camera was horrible. It would also me useful in Super Smash Bros. 3DS. More and more Nintendo games will have Amiibo support, and that will also be a lot easier with the New 3DS even though he didn't mention that. I do wish the XL also had customisable faceplates, but that's not the end of the world to me, I'll either get a limited edition bundle or just throw some stickers on it like I did with my current XL :)
What was the game shown at 11:36 ?
I have the "old" 3 ds xl, and while I really like the way the new one looks it's not a super super significant difference for me to want to go get the new one yet... Maybe if they came out with some really cool games for it in the future...
great video thanks so much super helpful!!!!
10 reasons why the old 3DS XL owns the "New" 3DS XL-
-You won't care as much if you drop it.
-It isn't glossy (glossy is pussy)
-It has bigger L and R bottuns
-It has a bigger stylus
-Its bigger, so people with bigger hands would find it more easy to hold.
-It's fingerprint proof (only for red,blue and pink)
-Comes in Pink (Pink is gangsta)
-Its cheaper now
-It has way more sales
-And its just better
Actually the new 3ds xl is bigger
ShadowOwl N the old 3ds xl is thicker, the new xl is longer
these arent legitiment reasons...
lmao so fucking stupid
What If? I'm not sure if he edited his post but it says "glossy is pussy"
I like the click feeling on my original 3ds xl and it's good to know the new ones buttons click. Idk if I'll be using the c stick much, but if they release a good enough game that utilizes it well enough I will start to use it. When I got my first Ds which was a Ds lite a really long time ago I used it for a while then lost it. One I found it and used it for a while it broke and I was Ds-less for a while ☹️. Then I went to the Nintendo store in NYC and played around with the old 3ds xl and ended up getting that a few years ago, broke it, got a new one and my brother whacked it out of my hand and the top screen almost fell of completely, the Ds still worked for a little while then the top screen stopped working. Bottom screen still works and audio is still fine, but I'm thinking about getting a new 3ds xl. This is gonna be a long ass comment. xD
Ok, so I have a lot of questions...
How much is the new 3ds xl? (I live in the US)
Is the charger the same as the old xl?
How can I transfer all of my games that I downloaded from the eShop from the old xl to the new if I end up buying one?
My Downloaded games are:
Super Mario Bros. The Lost Levels, Super Mario Bros. 2, Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario Land, Super Mario Land 2 Six Golden Coins, Super Mario Land 3 Wario Land, Wario Land 3, Game and Watch Gallery 2, The Legend Of Zelda Four Swords, The Legend Of Zelda Oracle Of Seasons, The Legend Of Zelda A Link Between Worlds, Kirby's Dream Land 2, Mega Man (idk which one...), VVVVVV, Crashmo, BattleMiner, Petit Computer, Photo Dojo, and Undead Storm.
If anyone can answer I would really appreciate it, I really want to find out how to transfer my games as the first 3ds I broke had most of these games and I lost all of them when it broke, and I had to buy them all over again, and I don't want that to happen again. Again, any answers will help.
Awesome video, I also have the cosmo black 3ds and its shoulder buttons are not working. Should upgrade to the ps vita slim or the new 3ds xl?
I just got the new 3ds xl my question is how long does it take to fully charge from 0 and how do you know when it's fully charged
"Slightly better" doesn't justify a £100+ price tag after trading in my XL.
So true
How did I miss an entire release of a new xl, I've been in the dark for YEARS, I was so confused when I looked how to work amiibo when it said "it works on 3ds xl but not 3ds xl, so buy a nfc"
Frances C what does it means?
What is 'nfc'?
I just got a open box SNES edition n3dsxl and my touch screen is off center like the n3dsll in the video, is that a common thing? I was thinking that maybe the seller had pulled a slick one and sent me one that had been repaired. But now I’m wondering if quality control was just poor on the n3dsxl/ll… anyone that has some helpful insight i sure would appreciate you letting me know
Just got a Pre-Owned one from Game Stop! Loving it so far!
I ordered a regular xl actually recently, and honestly i prefer the xls over any other 3ds/ 2ds. Both of them look pretty great. If they werent absolutely expensive right now i probably wouldve gone for a new 3ds xl but it really doesnt matter all that much
I do probably prefer where the start and select is on the new one though, especially since thats how it was on the regular 2ds too
You just can't play some of the new xl exclusives like minecraft but other then that it's solid enough I just got a new xl because work money and I enjoy it
@@survivalhh2995not sure why'd you play it in there, but I'm not sure about any other exclusives worth getting, apart from Xenoblade Chronicles

Did you ever get the new one and do you still use your 3DS?
i had not made my desision to get either the original or new, but after this well detailed video i made my desision.Thank you very much.
So do you just use normal 3ds games for the XL or are there XL games made specifically for the XL? I'm assuming you just use the same discs because I've checked my local warehouse and they only sell 3ds XL's so I found the games and the all just say 3ds down the side, and there are no 3ds XL games. I also checked the Nintendo website and there are no XL games there either. I know I just answered my own question and there most likely is, but I was just double checking incase because I'm getting one for christmas and I don't want to get the wrong one. Plz reply!!

+Virginia Hines Already bought one and its fine
+Nia Nelson how much cheaper was it?
+Patriots Legend They are the exact same price
I bought the old 3ds XL and now I feel sorry
+Nia Nelson it's fine until you see the hardware limitations
good info, but why do people insist on repeating the name of the product over and over and over again...why not just say, new one...or old one...why every single time say New 3ds xl compared to the old 3ds xl? we kinda know what it is...
Hi, Im planning to buy myself a DS. Which DS should i get? The 2DS XL or 3DS XL? Im planning to get ot in the next few months, after the 2DS XL comes out so I can watch more reviews on them
Thank you for helping to decide I honestly watch it because I want to know if I use my old Nintendo 3ds XL Case for a new Nintendo 3ds XL(I don't think so) but Finally I'm suprised about the many differences... 👍🏻
So I bought a new 3DS Xl with Mario 3D world, new super Mario 2, Pokemon super mystery dungeon, Mario cart 7, and Zelda game OoT, I went all out on this. Haven't played the 3ds in about 2-3 years wish me luck!!!
you'll(hopefully) love it
No follow-up. Disappoint after 3 years.
Please tell me what “new Super Mario 2”, “Mario cart 7” and “Zelda game OoT” are because, they aren’t 3DS games, and how the hell did you get 3D World running on a 3DS.
@@jaytalks9408 i presume "new Super Mario 2" is New Super Mario Bros. 2, "Mario cart 7" is Mario Kart 7 and "Zelda game OoT" is The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D. I think instead of "3D World" he means Super Mario 3D Land
Another thing regarding the new 3ds xl's screen is that it has a much better contrast ratio (much darker blacks). The old 3ds xl looks a bit washed out compared to the new screen.
True.
Brad Setzer But isn't it stretched ? since the resolution doesn't change and the screen gets bigger (sorry for the revival)
should i really get the newest version ? or the old version is almost the same ? please let me know if you have used both
Charging time? Does the New 3DS XL charge faster than the regular 3DS XL
most important thing for the new 3DS that its 100% worth the money is the camera adjustment for the 3D visuals of the game.
i've tried the simple 3ds xl and my eyes were on fire with the 3D mode on.
I bought the Nintendo 3DS LL this month, and I didn't like the 3D funtion...the quality is not good....
So, I'll play in 2D。
Why do you keep saying "pretty much'? "You pretty much have to turn on/off Wi-Fi in the settings", "You pretty much have to open the back plate to access the micro sd card". There's nothing "pretty much" about it. It's what you HAVE to do. "Pretty much".
TheDw07 "screens are pretty much identical" right after that says they are the exact same
I haven't thought about getting a Nintendo product ever since I got my GBA SP NES Edition back in 2003, had a DS but I only had like 3 games for it, should I get this?
Hold up, the browser on your original XL looks different than on my XL. Is there a way to upgrade the browser? I'm on the latest 3DS Firmware.
The main problem that I have is that there will be no "normal size" 3DS in North America, so as a result, I'd have to get a more expensive, less customizable, larger version that I really do not want and have no need for.
boy do I have some news for you

What kind of screwdriver opens up the back to get at the New 3DS XL microSD card slot?
I got my 3ds xl this July but its felt like ive had it for only a month :/ im still wondering what I should get for Christmas so should I upgrade? or maybe get a new console like ps4 or a pc?
I only bought the new 3DS for the Majoras Mask special edition
The only thing I don't like about the new 3ds xl is how everything is on the bottom. It just gives the 3ds a higher chance of accidentally hitting the power button or the cartridge being pressed.
It does happen very often
Love watching this in 2022 as if it's a new system coming out
I'm getting a new 3ds XL soon, I'm thinking about getting either Super Smash Bros. or Animal Crossing. Which one should I purchase? Any suggestions for game reviews?
Got myself a circle pad pro back in December, which also has its own set of extra triggers plus it's far more comfortable to hold - it's far more bulkier though, but I love that feeling.
Unless you don't have a 3DS yet, I personally don't think the new 3DS is a worthwhile investment (for now at least).
The slight changes were not enough for me to buy the new 3DS xl because it is $100 more expensive for me so I just bought the normal 3DS xl
You helped me decide. Thanks! Getting an older xl for 109 versus a new xl for over 200 ; )
I have a 2ds right now and im thinking on upgrading to 3ds xl, should I go to new 3ds xl? Is the video quality of 3ds xl / new 3ds xl that big? I'm willing to play super smash bros at first.
I currently own the 3ds XL and wish to buy Mh4u, Should I get the New 3ds XL or are the graphics not that bad on the old one?
Here because i just purchased a pre-owned New 3DS XL for $100 :)
Only buy the new one if you Will use the following) i would use none of these...
-amiibo
-the good 3d (i dont use 3d
-why would i use the new buttons ? (it does not work on most games)
-and im not a fan of gloss
who cares if its like 3 seconds faster!
No its Wayyy better than the old 3ds crap
Wtf Is That crap like yu
It's not "3 seconds faster". With the new processor, you can play SNES VC games flawlessly.
t'is fellow you can with the old 3ds xl too...
t'is fellow
But you're gonna need cfw, which is time consuming and hard for newbies.
And old firmware.
