Looks hideous to me, but then again, it's not designed FOR me.. It's designed for little kids. Nintendo is making that quite obvious. And I can't hate them for trying to expand their market. God knows they need to as much as possible. I think it'll do well amongst the little kids demographic. Granted, I don't think they necessarily need to change the whole design. Hell, if they stuck with the original folded design, I might have actually gotten one myself. But I don't think the market Nintendo is going for generally cares about the fold-up designs anyway.
But no need to hate on them.. Because if you are a more "hardcore" type Nintendo has a machine for you too, it's called the 3DS XL, which I already own, and it's solid.. You can also find it relatively cheap on amazon. (I got it brand new preloaded with Mario Kart for only $220).
