Nintendo Nintendo 3DS XL Black/Black - Nintendo 3DS XL
If one looks at the 3DS with an unbiased,
objective point of view, there is a lot to love. It is basically a
next-gen successor to Nintendo's vastly successful DS handheld, with the
horse-power of a console somewhere between the Gamecube and the Wii. It
utilizes a very cool 3-D effect that, when done right, really adds to
the overall immersion of the gaming experiences available on it.
Everything about it is an improvement on the original DS. Granted, it
also has some caveats and issues as well. The 3DS XL does a very good
job delivering the goodness of the original 3DS, while making vast
improvements over its smaller brother original. In this review, I will
focus on the differences and improvements this model makes on the 3DS
line. I'll warn you right now, this is a long review. If you don't like
long reviews, then you may want to skip this. :P
Screen Size: With a title that includes "XL," obviously the increase in size is the biggest difference between this and the original 3DS. It may be easy to hear that the screens are 90% bigger than the original, but it really is a stark difference when you take the system out of the package and see it for yourself. The XL's screens are HUGE compared to the original. It's comparable to the jump between the DSi and the DSXL, for those savvy to what that means, but in this case its even bigger because the top screen is in a widescreen format. Despite the size increase, the picture is still crisp and pops with nice detail. I thought that because the screen would be bigger, but with the same resolution as the original, the XL's picture would be distorted and fuzzy, but that's not the case here. Read more
