Bringing games to life to broaden the appeal of Nintendo’s 3DS range. Should you wish to have the 3D effect switched on
The effects are much more noticeable and obvious than before. Games such as Super Mario 3D Land and The Legend of Zelda
Ocarina of Time played on the 3DS XL will take any Nintendo fans breath away. Nintendo’s 3DS XL also d

The editors didn't like
Lower pixel density
Only one circle pad
Less pretty
Build feels a bit cheap
Heft makes it cumbersome
Bland styling
Still only one analogue stick
Mains charger not included
More plasticky
Less highend feel than the original 3DS
Screen brightness slightly lower than the 3DS
Screens are bigger but resolution stays the same
Battery can't be removed
The larger screen makes games look even better
But even the 3DS cannot compete with the HD screen quality of the PlayStation Vita. The build quality could also be better
Especially when
Again
Compared to the superbly-made PlayStation Vita. The 3DS XL also sacrifices portability for size
So there’s no longer any hope of stashing it in your jeans pockets without suffering from unsightly bulges
Abstract: Opinion to all GadgetsIf you're a gaming enthusiast you'd most probably be aware of the top brands that sell popular gaming systems like Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft. Consoles from these manufacturers engrain and inspire gamers due to the creative cornuc...
The screen. Sure, it's not as high res as you'd maybe wish for, but thATT#39;s because it's locked into the same resolution as last generation's smaller screens. The stats are 800x240 for the top screen, and 320x240 for the bottom,
The button size and layout. While the 3DS XL's larger size definitely makes it more comfortable to hold than the 3DS, the buttons still feel oddly small. The joystick and directional pad are arranged so you can use either, but that results in neither actu
It depends. If youve already got a 3DS, maybe not. But if youre looking at the current generation of handhelds, the 3DS XL is definitely the Nintendo device to get. And while its clearly behind Sonys PS Vita in specs, the two-screen interface offers a...
Abstract: Nintendo ‘s handheld console refreshes have followed a predictable pattern over the years, firmly centred around Nintendo ‘s ‘bigger is better' philosophy. The Nintendo 3DS XL – successor to the original 3DS – is no exception to Ninty's tried and tested g...
Abstract: I've had the original Nintendo 3DS for quite a while now, almost a year, and for the most part I loved it. The 3DS was Nintendo's entry into the 3D portable gaming world, but without the tell-tale glasses. You just have to keep your vision within a narrow...
Y todo ello pese a que las mejoras extras que Nintendo podría haber presentado con esta portátil para hacerla redonda – sistema operativo, resolución de pantalla y un segundo stick analógico – se han quedado fuera inexplicablemente. Seguramente entonces e...
Un peu comme avec sa DSi XL, Nintendo a peaufiner son produit presque qu’au maximum. La 3DS XL offre une meilleure prise en main, des écrans plus grands et de bien meilleures qualités, tout en conservant une taille qui entre encore dans les poches de j...
3D plus immersive, Prise en mains plus confortable, Plus autonome, Design plus réussi...
mais moins sophistiqué, Où est le second stick ?, Où est le chargeur ?, Définition d'écran un peu juste
La 3DS XL gomme certains défauts de la 3DS et s'avère globalement meilleure en tout. On préfère son format (plus confortable), ses grands écrans (plus immersifs), son autonomie (rallongée d'une heure) et sa finition (qui tolère mieux les traces de doigts)...

Abstract: Un peu plus d'un an après sa sortie, la 3DS de Nintendo se voit remplacée par un modèle XL, plus large, mais également mieux fini. Son but : faire table rase des (nombreuses) erreurs du passé.PublicitéEt les erreurs, on pourra dire que la 3DS de première...
gameplay Nintendo, prise en main, confort, autonomie, taille, sobriété du design. Les
pas de chargeur, définition un peu faible pour ces diagonales d’écrans, pas de deuxième stick analogique.
Comme pour la DSi, Nintendo livre une version XL de sa console de jeu portable : la 3DS. Une version « king size » de son aînée qui ajoute du confort de jeu mais perd en niveau de détails. ...
Après avoir joué avec la 3DS XL, le retour sur une 3DS est un peu une sorte de non-sens, on a l'impression de régresser et de revenir en arrière. L'expérience de jeu est meilleure, la prise en main aussi et je ne peux que vous la conseiller si vous jouez...
