The 3DS XL was just too big, this one is the perfect size

The screens are smaller but much clearer and sharper than the XL and the size of the unit is perfect

This is a noticeable improvement over the standard 3ds and in my opinion a much better size than the xl

Love the size of this new 3DS, fits amazing in pockets when my 3DS XL just is too much to walk around with

Lovely design, and a great size, not significantly smaller than the XL version, but is more comfortable in the hands

As for the system I am very pleased with the Super Mario White design

Instead, I received the Super Mario 3D Land New 3DS Game and System bundle

Pick up Super Mario 3D land or Pokemon if you like that.

The system itself works great, and is a huge upgrade from my old pink Nintendo 3DS system, but I did not receive the Super Mario White Edition New 3DS

Sure enough it was a NEW 3DS Super Mario White Edition with a $99.00 price tag stuck to it

If you ever wanted the New Nintendo 3DS, this is a great buy!

Another low ball review said his son couldn't play his new system because Best Buy had the chargers on backorder

I'm glad Amazon fixed the scalping and early release issue for honest consumers buying for themselves and/or their kids.

My son had to wait for Best Buy to get the charger back in stock

Works very well as a Wii U Smash controller!

The only real problem with this product isn't necessarily the product itself.

Great product my son was thrilled at Christmas to receive his new 3DS!

We tried resetting it, charging it, resting it, even googled some youtube tricks on to possible "trick" the ds into loading the game

The product is fantastic and worth regular price if you don't own a "new" 3DS model

I love this product, my son is very happy with her New Nintendo 3ds, is fantastic

But as far as a New 3DS goes, I really love this white system

The system itself is fantastic, so please, if they don't list a proper reason, disregard the negative reviews

I don't see how you could get that this system is an XL version and then blame Nintendo because it's not

But, even if I got it at regular price, the system is great!The speed and processing power in the "new" 3DS' are much better than the regular 3DS'

The system itself works great, and is a huge upgrade from my old pink Nintendo 3DS system, but I did not receive the Super Mario White Edition New 3DS

Great product my son was thrilled at Christmas to receive his new 3DS!

Now my son pays the penalty on Christmas

I love this product, my son is very happy with her New Nintendo 3ds, is fantastic

My son is very happy with this console, zero complaints.

My son is enjoying his Christmas present very much and loves it.

Unfortunately,Santa brought our 5 year old son a defective ds

Really beautiful design on the exterior, making your device feel somewhat unique

Lovely design, and a great size, not significantly smaller than the XL version, but is more comfortable in the hands

really good hardware design, its the best Nintendo system of all time . . . . . . . .

Can't really ask for much more, as the product came in great working condition and did exactly what I expected it to do

Unfortunately,Santa brought our 5 year old son a defective ds

Son has used this for about a year now and it still is in great condition and he loves it.

although i probably wont be doing that anyways) i received my package earlier than expected and the box was in great condition.

And the 3-D is really cool, it takes some time to get used to it but after a couple uses with it on your eyes adjust and just enjoy it

I suggest trying to find these consoles under $200 if you can snag one, it's a good deal

Unfortunately,Santa brought our 5 year old son a defective ds

the one problem i had with it was that it came with a different game pre installed that wasn't mario as they promised, but aside that its a great buy when looking for a new system

These systems were originally sold for $99, look for a better deal

We tried resetting it, charging it, resting it, even googled some youtube tricks on to possible "trick" the ds into loading the game

System looks so good in black, no complaints since it's you standard New 3DS

My original 3DS lagged constantly when battling no matter the number of Pokemon on screen

Overall, the new 3DS is nice, but not an absolutely necessary upgrade to the regular 3DS

Would've been nice to know that a charger was NOT included ...you'd think a device brand new that cost $300 would've come with a charger..my son got to play his 3ds for 15 minutes Christmas Day before it died...

I bought the New Nintendo 3DS in January and to this day in June it still works like a charm

Bought at a great price, it's practically-sized akin to its 3DS kin and plays DS and 3DS games

You can find anything you would want to buy at a great price

I was thinking about buying one for the first time when all of a sudden this deal popped up on new sites, and with it being a normal sized black 3DS for a cheap price, this just grabbed my attention.

Managed to score this bad Larry on Black Friday in the middle of the afternoon as soon as they restocked without having to go through those blood sucking price gougers who ruined a child or 3 (thousands) Christmas.

but I would not recommended buying from a scalper, I love my 3Ds but the price their asking for is way to much.

A beautiful and fun device, wish it came with a charger but still a great purchase.

But other than the extra purchases I had to make the device is great and provides tons of entertainment.

But the New 3DS proves as vulnerable to malware and viruses as any PC or smart device.

Unfortunately,Santa brought our 5 year old son a defective ds

Why would Nintendo even package a portable device without a charger

My only concern is how the top screen is flimsy even fresh out of the box

The volume tab, also very strangely, is on the top screen at the very left of the system (on the opposite side of the system is the 3D slider, where you can magnify the effect or reduce it/turn it off)

My only concern is how the top screen is flimsy even fresh out of the box

The volume slider is next the top screen on the left side.8

The one I bought was in used-acceptable condition from amazon warehouse deals because the "new" ones are up for double the original price, I've got to say, "used-acceptable" is a good description, the unit didn't come with the original box, or the manual or even the sd card that comes in new units, but that aside the 3ds was ok, no screen scratches or too much scufs, just a few dirt here and there

Dismay and anger from everyone ensued, a very depressed buyer of the unit feeling stupid when they thought this would be the greatest gift, apologizing profusely, and one unhappy child with a handful of games he cannot play

We tried resetting it, charging it, resting it, even googled some youtube tricks on to possible "trick" the ds into loading the game

Today, it's an unhappy adult leaving a poor review of the

I felt I needed to give this review to try to counter all the negative reviews people are leaving that have nothing to do with the actual item.

The system itself is fantastic, so please, if they don't list a proper reason, disregard the negative reviews

I'm writing this review to clear up any confusion about whether the 3DS Super Mario Black Edition is an XL or non-XL

I think it's funny everyone is whining and giving this a negative review even though they never received the product

The screens look a good bit crisper than the pixels on the XL models, so I prefer this one.

A bit louder, but if you don't do a side-by-side comparison you won't

~Better Battery life than the normal 3ds modelsCons:~Can get a bit uncomfortable to hold after long periods of usage due

The end product is fantastic--especially the improved 3D--but transitioning from a Nintendo 3DS XL was more than a bit obnoxious

It's a bit hard to push, so sometimes you may need to jam your nail hard on the button for it to turn off
