Honestly, with the creation of the circle pad pro was an admission of 'Derp, we forgot a key feature'. A new nub in a redesign was an expectation of mine.


A few things I want to say in regards to this.  

1) The 3DS XL is not a redesign, as the basic design of the 3DS remained the same.  Same button placement, same buttons, etc.  Just a bigger screen and slightly enhanced battery life.

2) The omission of the second circle pad wasn't because they were being stupid and forgot to add one, but moreso they felt like it wasn't necessary.  

3) Out of all the games coming out for the 3DS, only a very small handful of them will even be compatible with the circle pad pro.
