I don't really like this much. It punishes early adopters and forces them to either buy a new handheld or miss out on a few exclusives. However, as many have said already Nintendo have done similar things before. It doesn't make it any better, but consumers should have known that something like that was possible. That being said some are exaggerating by saying that their 3DS is now obsolete. It isn't, it's just gonna miss some games.
Also, for everyone saying Xenoblade and the other exclusives being developed for the new 3DS cannot be done on the old 3DS. You have completely given up the right to be upset at any 3rd party game skipping a Nintendo system.
