Nintendo has announced it will offer two special-edition Nintendo 3DS models starting on November 25th that will bring the popular handheld below $100 for the first time ever.
The New special-edition Nintendo 3DS models will come in either black or white and will feature Mushroom Kingdom characters and imagery. The images include various iconic items and enemies, such as a Yoshi egg, a Bullet Bill, Mario himself, and more.

To keep the price as low as possible, this special-edition Nintendo 3DS doesn’t come with any pre-loaded software.

Damn, I wasn't expecting to pick up the "new" version anytime soon, but this might force my hand.
-
I really don't need a "new" 3DS with the Switch coming out, but that is an extremely appealing price. Wow.
-

Well if you've never owned a 3DS, there are dozens of great games to play which most likely won't be ported to Switch.
But I already have the original 3DS, so I don't need the "new" one, especially since not many games utilize the "newness". But I wanted to get one eventually since it's 3D effect is easier to maintain, and the screen is bigger than the original 3DS.-
I'm in the same boat as you. I have an XL already and wouldn't pick up any of the games that require it. But i forgot that the 3d effect is greatly improved as well. Hopefully they all sell out instantly and I won't be tempted.

I'll sadly be at GameStop at midnight, like I was for my Zelda edition 3DS:

It runs faster, and is more responsive. Games load faster, and the OS is faster too.

Online shopping. Waiting in Black Friday lines is for dopes.

Can the old, original DS play most of the current games?
Wife just found our old DS's in a box. We're charging them now to see if they still work. I don't remember that it has any kind of online store, so it's cart only. But, I'm not sure if the newer carts are only compatible with the new system?-
Regular DS won't play any 3DS games.
-
None of the 3DS games will run on an OG DS.

-
Damn, it might be time to pick one of these up. Sub 100 is such a nice price point...
-
Nice. Probably won't get lower than that for a bit. Almost picked on up at JC Penny of all places when they had it last week for $155.

3D Screen works a whole lot better.
-
Yeah, I'm wondering though if the quality is equal when you're at the "sweet spot". Like, I wonder if they had to make any sacrifices to the 3D for it to work from more angles. In my understanding the camera tracks your eyes and adjusts the screen in real time, so that wouldn't seem to make picture quality suffer, but I don't have any hands-on experience.

SNES VC games seem to be New 3DS Exclusive.

Yup I think it needs the extra CPU power for the emulator

I just bought a 3 pack of USB cords for $6-7 which I can plug into any USB port or AC adapter that I have in abundance.

I think IPS just looks better regardless of the resolution.

Is this a small New 3DS or a big one?
-

-
You sure? I don't think they ever released the small version in the US. I think we only have the XL version, which they don't label as XL because it's our only version.
-
Oh, just looked it up, apparently they do have two separate sizes in the states now. At first it was just the XL

Cool, well now I'm not sure if I want this deal. I kinda want the New 3DS XL since I have the standard size original 3DS. Use the New one for home play, the old, small one for travel.

How about the 3D effect? Is it diminished at all on the larger screen? Like at the edges?
