The New 3DS was made, because:
1. They needed a significantly different model to counteract the slowing sales of the 3DS.
2. They needed to update the hardware because some games (Pokémon is the most noticeable example) ran like crap on the 3DS, especially if you turned on the 3D.
3. They needed a right analog stick for Super Smash Bros and Monster Hunter.
Overall, I liked most of the updates in the New 3DS. I found that additional shoulder buttons worked much better than I was expecting. I absolutely despise the c-nub however.
