I know I am.
For the Top as well as the Bottom.
After seeing how the Top Screen get scratches just from closing the screen because of the Bottom Screen's ridge and that there is still a ridge on the XL version, yeah...

I'm sure they fixed the screen touching issue of the original 3DS, but if I were to get a 3DS XL (which I'm not) I would get screen protectors after I saw what playing Kid Icarus Uprising did to my touch screen.

There is no bubble if they are put on correctly.
Don't just lay it flat on, you start with one corner and use a credit/library card and edge it down.
also, the screen needs to be cleaned before the protector is put on.

I had screen protectors on my DS, and while I admit they got all scratched up and looked hideous, after I took them off recently my screens underneath looked brand new. That's a success in my book.

Yes, they are replaceable. If it gets too messed up, just put a new one on.
It's a lot easier and cheaper than getting the actual screen fixed.

You can get it off using the tape technique. Put a piece of sticky tape on the edge with part of the tape sticking up so you can grab it and pull up the screen protector.

The bottom screen ridge scratches the top screen.

@Miss_Birdo is it free or do you need warranty or cash?

They've definetly fixed it with the XL. My sister's normal 3DS doesn't have the issue because it's a newer model.

the new design makes it impossible for the bottom bevel to contact the top screen. the old 3ds used squishy pads that contacted the bottom lid itself, not the lower screen bevel, and because they easily compressed the bevel was able to touch the top screen. the xl has two hard plastic bumps above the top screen that rest on the bottom bevel itself, on either side of the start/select buttons. the top screen is guaranteed to be a few mm away from the bottom bevel because of that.

Use the Hori protectors. They're pretty easy to apply. My 3DS still has the Hori protectors I applied on launch day.

Nah, I'll keep my XL to play at home while my original 3DS will be the one I put in my pocket and walk around with. I won't need screen protectors for my XL.
