So how did the 3DS XL go from "Wow this is a dumb idea" to "WOW it looks GREAT! I WANT ONE" in like 2 monthes?

the battery life is not an issue for me
the second analog is well as it is, an add on imo
The 3DS XL makes much more sense than the DSiXl because of the 3d
for me the perfect DS is obviously the DSi
