Are any of you tempted to get this?

Looks wonderful.
I'd be tempted, but I like the 3D too much.
The only thing that bugs me is the speaker placement. Didn't think it would matter, but the main thing I use my 3DS for is music composition and I love the speakers the way they always have been.
Would love one of these otherwise!
I'm utterly ambivalent about Pokemon (heresy!) but I do have to admit this looks very slick.
which is why i believe there are only about 5 million 3ds owners buying 13 units apiece.
Nope. I'm not paying $150 for a flimsier, stripped down version of a console I bought six years ago.
I pre-ordered it. I never got a New 3DS. I wanted to though and since my wallet is a little empty lately I figure this is a fair alternative. I don't use 3D that much anymore so I don't mind it not being in the console. Plus it has an awesome design in my opinion.
Getting this. Already have it preordered and can’t wait to get my hands on this. It looks really good
I might just preorder it at GameStop. Would buy the fourth 3DS I bought.
I don't like Pokemon one bit which is why two weeks ago I bought the Blue and Black New 2DS XL. I love it and Xenoblade. Everything is perfect about it besides the speaker placement, it feels weird when playing with it on and makes it sound different so I just use headphones (but I did that anyway with the other 2DS and still do with my Switch so no problem there). I am pleasantly surprised at how many people are buying this considering even I was a little scared the 3DS would end soon and nobody would buy it (and it was backed up by how everyone was responding to the system before).
I keep a watch out for the new 3ds ones actually.
Once those drop in price I might pick one up just to play some of those glorious super stable 3d games with 3d.
I really like the 3d. The new2ds I just don't get...
@LuckyPower What software do you recommend for music composition? Just curious. I’ve always wanted to dabble in it.
@feelinsupersonic Probably, I have 7 of them.....
I'm starting to think the 3ds has sold well as most owners have bought them many times
I have 3 and a old 2ds
@justin233 it's KORG M01D. Been using it for years.
One of my friends still uses it in live performances and got her first few jobs as a game composer with it so it is capable!
@LuckyPower Wow - that’s awesome! I’ll definitely have to look into it further. Thank you so much.
Hello, Beautiful New 2DS XL !
If this had come out three years ago I would have been ALL OVER IT! Gorgeous design.
Sadly, my time with this console family is over.
