Nintendo! Why can't they just get ahead of the game and put on 4 circle pads? Two on the front and two on the back.

Also 500 GB of space, and 40 hour battery life would be nice.

I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

I would totally get this as a second machine but the lack of an account based purchase system bugs me. On the other hand I could use the XL for cartridge games only and keep the download games on the original model.

Hmmm...

You can always transfer the data from your original 3DS to the XL if i'm not mistaken.

Sure I' mean having my games on two systems at the same time. In that case I could use the XL as my "home" system and the small one when going outside. But my point was pretty redundent as it's only relevant for downloadable software.
