Everyone here needs to calm the fuck down. 1.) This is not a new system. It is simply an upgrade. They've done stuff like this before (GBA SP, DSi, etc.). 2.) You are currently missing out on ONE game...that isn't even new...that you can play on the Wii. 3.) If you really feel like you need to play this ONE game, go buy a New 3DS (which doesn't come out for awhile anyway) and sell your old 3DS. 4.) This is the most important point. XENOBLADE WOULD NEVER HAVE COME TO THE 3DS ANYWAY! THE ORIGINAL 3DS DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO PLAY IT!!!

I've had a 3DS for a long ass time, just saying. This really is a non-issue, so please stop bitching.

"Satoru Iwata also mentioned that several other titles are in development exclusively for the New Nintendo 3DS. These will not be playable on the old 3DS models."

 

So Nintendo gets a free pass after years of yelling at third parties to make the necessary downgrades so that PS360 games fit the Wii. Yeah. A non-issue.

I really don't think they will make any new games exclusive to the system. Only ports.

Still I get you, its completely unnessary. Any game which is running on the new 3DS could run on the old one easily. I don't have the specs but from the footage alone it looks like a gamecube/wii size difference, not huge at all.
