Customers are saying

Customers value the improved 3D capabilities, larger screen size, and enhanced graphics of the New Galaxy Style New Nintendo 3DS XL. They also appreciate the system's ease of use and the functionality of the C-stick. However, some customers express disappointment over the lack of an included charger and find the price point to be relatively high. The SD card's accessibility is another area where some users have voiced concerns.

    This was a birthday gift for our youngest grandson. He is big on electronic games, and wanted something that was not tied to his computer. We especially like the fact that we can buy advanced games as he gets older.

    I bought this for my boyfriend, who enjoys to dabble in video games in his free time, often at work he has down times where he has to just sit and wait in the company car, he says this has helped greatly to pass time! :)

    For the price of the product I expected a CHARGER, however on Christmas morning I had to borrow one and then run out that weekend to purchase a charger. Nickle and Dime, but I guess I should have read the box a little better. :(

    It's comfy and fits in my hands easily, only problem would be that I can't exactly fit it in my pocket because of the size so it's a minor problem when I'm on the go. But as far as handhelds go, this is a solid product.

    Bought this Item as a Xmas gift for my son. He is a huge Pokemon fan and wanted this unit specifically for Pokemon games. He loves it! I find myself playing the old Super Mario games. I have to say, I love it to.

    Poor quality control?

    Great little console with excellent games and a useable 3D function :) The quality control seems a bit so-so, though. The first unit I got had dead pixels on the top screen. The replacement had a constantly white pixel on the bottom screen and a top screen that was rocking back and forth when you played games on it. Got a flawless unit on the third try = happy now.

    He loves his 3DS. He is constantly on it playing 1 of 3 games. The battery life is good for the amount of time he is on it. Screen has awesome effects and color. Great gift for kids that love their video world.

    Bought this for my 7year old son, needless to say it was a hit. Great screen, works great, clear picture, loud volume, great game choices. Easy for older kids but my 5 year old can use it too.

    I was glad they had the red. The 3d was much better then I thought it would be and easy to use with or without the 3d.

    I got this for my son who loves it and the 3-D effect is wild! My complaint and 3 stars is that the device comes without a charger, yep, that's right no charger. Luckily the Sales person at Best Buy told me, which was good and bad as the only charger they had in the store was about $10.

    I had read several reviews praising how the new 3d tech works, but it never really hit home until I could play with it for a while. Yes, it's great. Enough so that's it's worth the upgrade if you use your 3DS a lot.

    This is a much better 3DS thanks to the new controls and especially the 3d viewing. It's actually functional now in comparison to the old model. I have a armor skin on it also so I plan on keeping this scratch free.
