The launch of the New Nintendo 3DS is imminent, but many players in Europe already have their hands on the system thanks to Nintendo's unique Ambassador Program.
Nintendo UK took the opportunity to speak to a few of these lucky individuals at a recent Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate event at Capcom's HQ, and you can see their impressions in the video below.
We've already gone hands-on with the Ambassador edition, as well as reviewing the Japanese hardware. If you're keen to know more you can watch our mini-series of videos which take an in-depth look at the new system.
The New Nintendo 3DS and New Nintendo 3DS XL launch in the UK on February 13th. North America is getting the system on the same day, but only the XL variant.

To think I almost blown my money on one - I think I'll keep my Aqua Blue for longer
Yeah I blew my money on one, And I love it!!!
My few cents:
ha, all you non-Australian Scum, still don't even have it
I love mine, I also got the ambassador edition. The 3d is much better, c-stick is great and especially useful in smash bros, screen improved and everything is much faster.
My one snag is the screws on the back cover plate require a size 0 Philips screwdriver or you'll strip them and will not be able to easily get them off- happened to me and damaged the smash bros plates and GAME have also had this issue with their in store ones.
I have an Ambassador New 3DS. The only thing that bothers me (but not a major issue) is I keep accidentally putting the Stylus into the Headphone Socket. Would have been better to keep the Stylus to the side as the XL.
I am very happy with the new model. The new Stable 3D is fantastic. I now play with 3D fully on, always used to be fully off
This is what you call fostering good-will with your fans, unlike NOA who seems to think slapping customers is a form of thank you.
@Ootfan98 How come you posted it three times, but you change your post slightly the third time?
@Bushido_Fai I posted from a touch screen phone, no response from phone when hit send first 2 times, I saw it appear, then I turned my phone off, so didn't see it appear 3 times. this always happens to me, can't get good signal at work.
Was at a party last night, a 7 year old girl got a 3DS XL for Christmas. I bit my tongue and didn't mention the "new" XL coming out this month.
I bought the Australian version of the New 3DS XL a few weeks ago, and I love everything about it so far
Thank you Nintendo for making the UK wait for the actual launch, We Really appreciate waiting!!
Being non oz scum I got mine shipped over here with in 2days of your launch and saved 50pound that's over 80 au dollars in your plastic money so kiss my scummy bummy
YALL BE RUBBIN IT IN AINT YALL?
I'm non Oz scum, but at least I'll be the one getting a Majora's Mask Special Edition New 3DS XL next week so I'm not too bothered
I was a bit worried about going from an XL to a New 3DS, but it feels much more comfortable in my hands and with the new 3D tracking I barely turn the feature off now. Titles old and new look great with it, especially the SEGA 3D Classics.
So glad I upgraded.
I just played one today! They had a demo kiosk at GameStop. Suuuuuuper nice! I love the c-stick, and the 3D is just as amazing as they say it is!
LOL @ that chick with the Felyne who declared "Yeah, the camera settings, it's so much easier, in the new game..."
Welcome to twinsticks lassie, it's been around since Monster Hunter 1 on the PS2... enjoy your stay.
C-stick? FINALLY. Why you nintedno give it now? Why you cant implemented this in original 3ds? Majority of consoles got two analogs on their gamepads.
Faster game dowload? When you download something for 3ds/2ds how many hardware "resourses" got used for this blue-pink-yellow whatever water drop? You cant optimalize it better?It's almost 4 years since 3ds came. 3ds and new 3ds got wifi "g" Why new not got "n"?
Even "dumb" ps vita got "n".
I would get it If I hadn't bought a 8GB (or was it 16?) SD memory card a while back for old 3DS. At least most who got one are happy
I have one, but I don't use it till I buy a game for it.
I'm currently playing Alpha Sapphire on my beautiful Aqua Blue, and I don't want to transfer (Because the new one shouldn't be taken to school) so I'm stuck with my broken L + R buttons. It's getting annoying, too.
Why did I only buy so much digital titles, sigh.
