YEAH!, i dont care if a console or a handheld gets a new version, BUT i do have a problem if they lock games to that version of the system, and your example is the best interpretation of it.

If i had bought a 3DS and i realized that the games that i wanted to play didnt work on my version of the system and that i had to buy a NEW 3DS model to play them i would be pretty pissed... i would easily be saying stuff like F#CK YOU NINTENDO.

This should be a NEW Nintendo handheld.

It's just a matter of perspective. To some people it is a new handheld. To others it's like the DSi. If you view it as"3DSi" it's understandable why you'd be upset, but people who view it as a new handheld aren't disappointed in any way. I think it's between both personally.

i really think Nintendo should have made this a new handheld, because as you just said its a matter of perspective, and there is gonna be people pissed about some games being locked for the new 3DS, (in fact if im not wrong there was people complaining about it already on the comment section on Youtube).

Nintendo has a problem when they give a name to their products, we already now how much of a problem the WII "U" name was, and now this 3DS... they should name it in a way that people know that its a NEW handheld, because im really sure that the actual reason why Xenoblade is exclusive to this version, is because more than likely the game doesnt run well on the old 3DS models, afterall arent the Specs of this new 3DS better than the old one?. and all the new buttons and the new analog stick must make the experience of playing Xenoblade way better on the new 3DS than on the old one.

I agree that it was a bad name even if it isn't a new system. They really had a choice to call it a new handheld or an upgrade from the old one. I think people would be angry if it was a new system released this early, and obviously people are angry at the current situation.

I think this was just meant to extend the life of the 3ds so Nintendo can replace the Wii U first. I don't think this was the best way possible to do it, but it seems to have more reason to it than just a cash grab. They do have to keep making money though.
