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.

    The New 3DS XL is the 3DS to get! The 3d is much improved and the c-stick is great for games like Monster Hunter 4!

    The last handheld I had was a gameboy advanced. This is obviously a huge step up. This is the handheld to get.

    Just when I thought Nintendo couldn't make a better upgrade to the 3ds family they did! This is a great system!

    My son loves this. We got this for him for christmas. He never wants to put it down. Disappointed though that I paid $200 and has to purchase the charger separately. You would think that you would get the charger with it. Especially when it uses a specific 3ds charger that only works for the ads.

    Super Nintendo Fan?

    The New Nintendo 3DS XL is completely worth the upgrade from the original if you grew up on SNES. I upgraded from the original 3DS because of the SNES line release of Pilotwings, Mario Kart, Super Mario World, DK, and Earthbound with future releases of Zelda A Link to the Past and Super Metroid. I don't really care for the 3D image or the newer recent games but I am sure they are up to par, however Super Smash Bros is probably the king of 3DS games right now. Get it and re-live your childhood.

    Beyond its outward looks this unit is really nice. It features a better 3d effect than previous incarnations of the 3DS and it has a little more processing power than its predecessors. The ability to use Amiibo figures with it is a nice extra too. All in all a nice portable system for the kids.

    Awesome portable game system. My son gets hours of play on his Nintendo 3DS XL. This was a hot item for Christmas 2016, sold out everywhere and Best Buy really came through for me on this one with On Line/Store Pick Up. No in-stock issues, unlike WM who can not keep their inventory accurate.

    They moved the game card her to the bottom, which if even the lightest touch while playing, will turn off the game
