    Great gaming device. Nintendo delivers as usual with this iteration of the DS. Great game select and audio / video is top notch. My only gripe is that it doesn't come with an ac power adapter. Would have gotten 5 stars if it did.

    Revisited my childhood

    I'm in my early 30s and I got this to relive my childhood a little. I'm glad I got it! It's a lot of fun. I have purchased too many games already. The 3D function on the "new" 3DS works well and I don't get dizzy or tired after extended times. The graphics are pretty good. I don't have another modern handheld console as a basis of comparison... but you can't go wrong with NINTENDO.

    This is my first handheld console from Nintendo since the Gameboy Color. I purchased it to play Pokemon X and Y and have put over seventy hours into it already. Very fun! The system is very modern. The "New" 3DS is also eligible for the new remakes of SNES games, which was my first console twenty-five years ago.

    3DS XL is the new handheld king

    I was really in the market for a handheld gaming system since i travel for business. I heard mixed reactions about the PS VITA but good things about the 3DS XL. Im so glad i purchased the 3DS XL. Has the best library of games and the 3D gaming is pretty impressive. The only downside is that if you use the 3D feature a lot you will have a short battery life but that i a minor flaw compared how good this little piece of hardware is. A must for someone who is an ON-THE-GO Gamer.

    It should come with a charger. It was a poor business decision by Nintendo to not include a charger with this system.
