If you have ever played a 3DS, you're familiar with the sweet-spotting that happens if you're using the 3D mode. You need to hold it a certain distance, in a certain spot, and if you don't, you lose the effect.
Not anymore. The New 3DS XL's 3D is VASTLY improved.
You won't want to turn the 3D off anymore. It's THAT good. No more fighting for a sweet spot, because the system tracks your face to make sure you keep the 3D effect. If ever you lose it, it takes but a second to correct itself. And if that weren't enough, it has a faster processor (everything loads quicker, be it menus, games, etc.), NFC functionality built in (for your Amiibo and more), MicroSD card storage, C-Sticks, two new shoulder buttons (No need for a Circle Pad Pro)... It's great, and all at what the old 3DS XL used to cost.
The loss of the adapter is the only black mark, but I've seen them selling for $10-15. Definitely buy one with this if you don't have an extra hanging around.
Still, if you're in the market for a new 3DS system, bypass the old 3DS models. Don't even consider them. Try this in store, and you'll be a believer. It's so much better.
