Nintendo New 3DS Xl - Red [Discontinued]

Having bought this used from a seller at a relatively low price compared to other units (around $70 less), I was a little skeptical as to whether or not this would come in good condition.Luckily, when it had came in, I was pleasantly surprised.The unit itself was in absolutely fantastic condition and was delivered on time. Packaging was more than adequate and even came with a charger and the original pen (which is a major plus since units costing up to $50 more didn’t even come with the pen which is $5 to replace).Overall though, I’m very happy with my purchase. Upgrading from the standard 3DS, it still has the great 3DS experience but has some nice improvements over the previous one. The faster CPU and more RAM make the system feel snappier and more responsive, the MicroSD card storage is a welcome replacement over the bulkier SD cards of the standard 3DS, improved button, slider, and port placements make it feel less awkward to hold, and more.While this console is already a bit dated, it’s a fantastic on-the-go handheld that is relatively capable and works best for those short sessions. The fact that I was able to get it at a good price and in such a good condition just makes it all the better. I would highly encourage anyone interested to pick one of these up whenever it’s at a reasonable price.

In perfect working order. Such amazing nostalgia to have this device again. The exterior is slightly scratched, but it’s very minimal. The stylus is also not the original, but not a big deal. Thank you so much 😃

The system came and there’s a huge scratch on the bottom, screens are scratched, outer shell is scratched, round disk on the controls is scratched up and nicked on an edge.Came with a janky 3rd party split charger and used micro sd card with photos and videos still on it.All buttons still work, reads games, has a new stylus, 3d and face tracking works.Not worth the price for this condition.This is used fair condition if not poor and will need a lot of refurbishing on top of what was paid for the unit.Update:Price needs to be dropped by about $160 or more for amount of replacement parts on top of the unit.Needs:Screens (after cleaning, the scratches are deeper than first appears), touch pad screen (due to misreads and scratches), card reader bc some of the 3ds and ds games won’t read or crash mid game even after cleaning both game and slot, buttons due to material wearing down, shell (if u can find one) due to all the scratches on them, rubber screw cover (one was missing out of the box), battery (to be safe), circle pad, right nub due to misreads, and bumpers bc they stick sometimes.

This is amazing! When I bought this, I didn't know that it was the newest version of the 3DS so I am more than happy with my purchase. There are so many great features. Prior to purchasing this, I only had a DSi. This is a massive improvement.Pros:- The console is backwards compatible. Your old DS or DSi games will definitely work on this, you just won't be able to use the 3D function on them. (For example, my copy of Harvest Moon: Tale of Two Towns runs flawlessly. I'd argue that it runs better than it did on the DSi)- The XL screen prevents me from squinting at the screen as I had done on my DSi. It also makes the device itself larger and easier to hold. Even with my small hands, it was a struggle to wield my DSi so I would always recommend an XL screen.- There's a smaller "knob" which can help focus the camera/ control your game much better than you could in the original 3DS. This, along with the other analog stick, makes playing very enjoyable.- The interior is matte. This prevents smudges and fingerprints.- So many cameras. There are two in the back and one in the front. I could play with just the cameras all day.- 3D isn't as headache-inducing as it was on the original 3DS. They've improved the face tracking in this version which has made it leaps and bounds easier on my head.- I don't know how the browser was for the original 3DS, but this is amazing compared to what it was for the DSi. Pleasantly surprised that Nintendo has created a browser that will run Youtube, especially in such a visually pleasing way. The buttons indicate that you may be able to use the 3D functionality on videos, but I haven't come across anything that works well yet.Cons:- The layout isn't as visually pleasing as the original 3DS, in my opinion. There used to be three buttons just below the touch screen but now there is only one (the home button). Also, the holes for the speaker are a weird plus sign pattern instead of the nice circle.- At the moment, there aren't any great console-exclusive games. Nintendo has stated that there would be games that could run on this, but they're not big titles or anything. As a result, the shoulder buttons seem kind of useless.- I bought mine used- like new for $140 from Amazon's warehouse deals. I would not at all pay the $200 for it. Most of the games for this system (even those that are old) are $30-50. Buying a system that is worth four-to-five of the games that run on it is a little absurd. If you have the cash it is worth it, otherwise I would wait for the price to drop or scope out the warehouse deals as I did.If you have the money to buy this and a handful of games for it all at once, then I think it's a fantastic buy. But if you have to wait and save up for the games then you may become a little disappointed in the system. It might also be a good upgrade if you're still in the DS/DSi era, like me. It's roughly the same price as the original 3DS, so if you're making a choice between this or the original I would recommend this.It's definitely fun to use and can even bring new life to games that you may have had sitting around for a while (that analogue stick has saved me from so many hand cramps already!). Can't wait to start digging in to the games I've been missing out on.

It is in great condition and it works! And.. mine came with the charger! Great times!!

There's not much more to say about the system that hasn't already been said.I was given this, as well as a copy of Pokemon: Alpha Sapphire, as a gift and I absolutely LOVE it.This is the first 3DS system I've owned, and I am really, REALLY pleased with the build quality of the device. It seems to process app and games very quickly, and the video quality for the Netflix and Youtube apps exceeded my expectations. (Just don't expect 1080p quality.)Obviously, the two biggest gripes people would have are there being a lack of a charger, and the switch to an internally-installed micro SD.Being that I already own a DSi (the charger for the DSi works with this system.), and I plan on only buying physical games, these were not turnoffs for me.If you've never purchased a 3DS and are looking to buy one, I COMPLETELY recommend this one. It is amazing.Just know you'll need a charger if you've never owned a DSi, either. I'd recommend buying a 3DS USB cable instead of the stock Nintendo charger, though. It gives you the flexibility to charge from USB chargers, computers, and power banks.
