That's the article for the new Circle Pad Pro for the 3DS XL. I like how it looks, it's very similar to the regular 3DS CPP. I want this though, but I probably won't be getting it as soon as it comes out like I did with the original.

What do you guys think of it? Is it ugly? Will you get it?

Im still bitter that the XL didn't get a second slider in It's redesign. I will probably only buy it if a game I really want needs it or is better because of it

[Nollog]

3DS XL itself was a waste.
Dunno why anyone would bother to get one of those.
So this is more waste imo.

so am I. However, in a Interview with Iwata, he Mention's that they wasn't enough space to put a second circle pad in, and the system would have had to be even bigger to accommodate it. Which is strange because I would have thought they would have been plenty of room.

Yeah...I mean the XL could be 90% bigger but the screen only like 80% to leave room. Oh well...we will have to just wait for the NEXT redesign

I get where you're coming from. I'd rather have a slightly bigger system with a second analog rather than buying an extra peripheral for it.

Why do you think the XL is a waste? It's good for people who just like to have a bigger system. I have DSi XL and 3DS XL, because I like having a bigger system in my hands.

The game I'm mostly focused on right now is Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate and it doesn't need the second circle pad. I played Kid Icarus: Uprising and I didn't feel like I needed to play it with a second circle pad either. I'll get one when a game I want is unplayable without a second circle pad.

Guess you will be waiting forever because that will never happen. Developers will not make a game that forcibly needs you to go out and buy a peripheral for a system just to play it. Except for Wii Motion Plus.

I too haven't played a game that seriously needed it though. MGS3D and Revelations both are quite playable with or without it. They both play just fine with both.

That's really just your opinion. After having the XL I don't think I could go back to the small scree.

I've played my friend's 3DS and it felt like I was holding a toy. And the screen was really small. It wasn't bad, but I couldn't see myself playing on that anymore.

When I get my XL, I will get one, as I will want to replay MGS: 3D on it. It still makes little sense to me why they didn't put one on there to begin with, but still.

You are going to love MGS3D on it. When I first got the XL I spent a hell of a lot of time replaying that game.

Cool. I suppose I could just play my copy on the HD collection and have it look a lot better, but nah I like 3D. Lol.

[Tsuchinoko]

Yeah the HD Collection looks amazing, but playing it in 3D is really great. Plus it feels different since it's on a portable.

Yeah I actually had the version that came in the HD collection before I got 3D, but I waited just so I could play it in 3D on a handheld.

[Tsuchinoko]

Yeah the 3D is really great. It feels like you are being sucked into the jungle. And the cutscenes are so sweet in 3D. Awww man I wanna play it now again.

[Blake]

It's... Well, big.

It's good you can read then, because otherwise you might think someone saying how they felt about a product would be fact somehow.

Because it's supposed to be a handheld.
Costs a hell of a lot more, and adds nothing besides being gigantic for an extra few cm.

It's still a handheld and a good one. I have no problem playing it out and about just like I did with the 3DS. It's your opinion though. I like it and that's all that matters.

When did I say you're wrong?
Your reply seems to indicate that I said you were wrong for liking it. When did I imply that?
