Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Nintendo 3DS XL Blue/Black [Old Model] - Bundle with Included Games by Gary Lucas

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best gaming purchase of my life!

I bought this about a month ago and now I play more on it than my Xbox 360! I've played the DSi before and loved it too but this thing is amazing I don't know how else to put it. The selection of games is large and varied, and there is a game for everyone. In some games, like Ocarina of Time HD, the 3D is pretty nice, although you have to hold it right to avoid ghosting, and the graphics are good enough to keep everyone happy. but the elite of computer games. When the original 3DS came out I kind of scoffed because it just didn't look that good fast forward like 2 years and the XL version is coming out and after seeing a first person from the friend who sold me I am went home to do something. researched it, and it outperforms the PSVita in every way except the graphics, so I ordered it the next day. This is a really high quality system that outperforms the DSi in every way except battery life and is backwards compatible with my collection of DS games. My only real complaint is the fairly short battery life once you have 3D enabled and enabled online. This thing lasts over 5 hours in my experience, which is a bit of a hassle so you might need a $20 portable battery to double the life to 10 hours if you travel or something. If you're not using 3D or online at medium brightness settings, I can see you can decently get your battery life down to 7 and 14 hours. All in all, if you're a casual person who doesn't travel much, battery life will never be an issue, and if you play from bed while it's plugged in, you can play while charging it at home after a long day's work . /the school. Overall, Nintendo has hit the mark with this product. They may fail in the home console department with the WiiU, but it's pure gold and there's no other handheld gaming system that can match it overall, including Sony's offerings.
