Is there a significant difference with the 3DS battery life? I think that 3 hours is fine for more demanding games. I plan to buy a portable battery in the future, just in case.

I can play smash 4 for almost 5hours on my n3ds XL, and it's almost 2 years old. 2 hours difference is huge for a handheld

Really? I remember playing Smash4 on my way home from the college, which is a 3 and a half hours trip, and the 3DS didn't reach home alive XD. Unless there's a massive improvement in battery life from 3DS to the N3DS, which can explain the difference. Either way, I don't usually game more than 1,2 hours on a trip without feeling dizzy, so battery life suits me. I can understand the criticism though.
