Can't wait for E3, I'm starting to be really hyped about Wii U. And 3DS will surely see many announcements from both TP and Nintendo. Hopefully there'll be a restyle too, with bigger screens, battery and larger 3D-angle i would buy it D1!

TBH this is really the only thing which would justify a redesgin, because the sweet spot is rather small...

But adding on an extra analogue stick isn't all thaat easy. Relatively few games have it, and no game will ever need it.

There's plently of people angry over the circle pad pro, it would be stupid for Nintendo to make a redesign (which, by definition, changes the size and/or appearence of the console) without a second analogue, thus creating a new add-on appositely for it. Commercially speaking, adding the second analogue into the restyle could work as a system seller for those who bought the first version (sure, not at D1, but in the years coming...).

The question is: will they show two different pieces of hardware at E3? And will they launch them both this year? Not so likely, but with NSMB2 and Brain Training in the works, a Lite-like model could be too.
