I think an all digital model would be king of cool. Something smaller, with a better built in camera, with something like 32GB of flash memory? There's not all that much I think they could do with the current model, so I think a digital focused model could be good for a niche audience.


good in theory, but that sounds a lot lke the psp go. It needs to be able to play 3ds cartridges at least.


I actually really liked the PSP Go.  It was a smart idea that was marketed horribly.  The problem with the PSP Go was that

a) It was too expensive for new adopters.

b) Backwards compatibility made it a poor option for those who wanted to upgrade.


Nintendo can solve this problem by either making it a bit cheaper than the 3DS XL which may be possible without hardware devoted to reading cards, smaller screens, etc, or by including a card reader IF that could be done while keeping the device small and affordable.

I was seriously just thinking about making this thread :-p

3DS Pro
-2nd circle pad with the same layout as Wii U
-all the design improvements the XL presented
-longer battery life
-improved 3D

Release Aug 2014 to coincide with a $30-40 price cut, thats 3 years after first cut and 2 years after XL. Release 3DS XL Pro in April 2015.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

OLED Screen is the only thing I need. Altough I know that it'll never happen...



I don't really want another model personally. I might buy an XL at some point.

I think they should make one for business purposes though, would boost sales.



I think what they have now is good enough. Better battery life would do wonders though

dont really care for a new model but better speakers, longer battery are the main 2 that i can think of right now.
i think the 2 models are fine though. Nintendo just need to keep delivering quality games and a real fucking virtual console damn it



I want a sleeker design, and a middle ground between the XL and the original in terms of screen size. Also, no more of the bottom screen scratching the top, because that is bullshit. Battery life needs to be a lot better as well.




I want to have rounded edges, my 3DS is hurting me! The more edgy edges reminds me of the horrors of the N64 days... not the controller though...
