| Aielyn said: The obvious possibility is that the 3DS XL is designed in such a way that it is easier to add a second circle pad than it was on the 3DS. That way, they can release a peripheral to go with the system, thereby preventing the "all the games will use it" problem without leaving the system lacking. Don't forget, it's not like the 3DS XL is replacing the 3DS. The smaller version will still be around just as much. The XL is for those who want a larger version - not everybody will. |
Perhaps. And I never said it would replace the current 3DS model, however, the DSLite replaced the DS, and the DSi the DS...
Releasing a second circle pad add-on would be the best option to try and avoid the issues I outlined. It's whether or not it would be supported, something which very few Nintendo add-ons were.
