Mainly because mine broke sometime ago and I havent gotten a new one. Also I was looking on the the nintendo E3 site and saw a couple of pictures for Metal Gear, so that might be my deciding factor. The 3d will just be a plus.

My position is this: Not that excited about the 3D aspect of it, but the fact that it has motion control and the ability to play movies will make me get it as a SUPPLEMENT to the DSi XL, which, because of its larger screen and better sound, I'll continue to use for non-3DS-specific games.

Same here, I'm not a big fan of 3D, but i guess if it looks good and considering its glasses-free I may use it more than I plan to. But overall, if it has some good launch titles, I'm definitely going to be in line first day for it. :)

I'll be getting it because of the exclusive games announced for the 3DS: Mario Kart, Paper Mario, StarFox 64 3D, Kingdom Hearts, and Zelda OoT 3D.

My DSi broke a while ago. This 3DS looks like a pretty appealing upgrade! Now I just have to generate more income. :P

I actually was expecting the show to decide if I should buy an XL or wait for the 3DS. Now I'm going for the 3DS, hopefully for Christmas?

I think I'm going to wait a couple of years. I just bought a DSi in March and I've been playing the same DS games for a couple of years now (excluding Pokemon Silver).

Not gonna happen. EA has announced that they're releasing Sims 3 this fall for "every platform available" and then in 2011 for the 3DS....which tells me that they know that the 3DS will not be available until 2011.

Besides a gameboy and nintendo 64 iv never been that interested in nintendo proudcts or handhelds, untill now. Im also very interested in it, if it looks amazing price is right and more nintendo and third party games come out for it then i might actually get it.

I'm more inclined to be an early adopter since I have none of the newer DS's. But then I know I'll get screwed when the 3DSiXLLite comes out two years later. But I don't know if I could wait that long!! :cry:

Nintendo said it is the successor to the ds. So this technically is the ds2. I am hoping they take a more leisurely approach to the upgrades because frankly they are just one after another.

i bet the second version will be a lot better. That top screen is a bit smallish for watching movies on I think, and the 3D effect probably gets significantly expanded with a larger screen.

The 3D aspect doesnt really excite me, but the game line up so far is amazing. So ill probably get it when it comes out.

Oh man. I can't come on this site. I was fine thinking about getting it, but if they are seriously gonna have titles like these, I'm gonna have to sooner or later. I so need another Zelda/Mario fix.

Then you haven't understood the greatness about 3D gaming, it not only looks good, but it makes it much easier to judge depth and height in games. Let me guess, when the N64 was new you were one of the people that said "yeah the analog stick is fine but I'll just stick to my d-pad".

..but the fact that it has motion control and the ability to play movies will make me get it as a SUPPLEMENT to the DSi XL, which, because of its larger screen and better sound, I'll continue to use for non-3DS-specific games.RichardWrite
Ok, so when did you compare the sound of the 3DS to that of the DSi XL?

That's probably because you don't understand what it does for gameplay.

You make it sound like no one is getting it.
