Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Enhance Your Gaming Experience with Circle Pad Pro - Nintendo 3DS LL Accessory (Imported from Japan, Does Not Include 3DS LL Console) by Frank Tyrance

Revainrating 5 out of 5

(subjective) Has good ergonomics, my hand encloses it better.

I haven't put off a purchase for the LONGEST time. But I just got Final Fantasy Explorers and it was too cumbersome to pan the camera without a second stick. so i had to get it! Pros: Not as heavy as I expected. (subjective) Ergonomically good, my hand can enclose it better than just holding a 3dsxl with its flat body. tactile feedback. Manufactured in such a way that you cannot access the game cartridge to prevent it from accidentally popping out. The hook in the lower left corner has a place for something. (Wish there was a hole on the right side) Cons: EH, I personally wish it had a rubber or knurled grip on the back. I'm a little worried that it might somehow slip out of my hands (maybe it's just me). Changing the cartridges is tedious because I have to pull the 3ds xl out of the round tablet first and then the cartridge. One main thing I don't like is that it doesn't have its own on/off switch. If you put the ds to sleep and open it after a few minutes, the round bar will go out (nice battery saver). However, you need to dive into the options menu and manually activate the circular control panel. *** Don't stop and turn on the 3ds in the middle of a boss fight to go to the bathroom or something. This will confuse you. *** Overall I like it.

Pros
  • The Circle Pad Pro is a handy stand for a Nintendo 3DS XL system with the suffix
Cons
  • Almost never
