Nintendo 3DS XL Charging Cradles Coming To Europe Later This Month

The Nintendo 3DS XL is being sold in Europe without an AC Adapter or a Charging Cradle; if buyers of Nintendo’s latest handheld don’t have one, they need to purchase an AC Adapter to charge their system. A Nintendo 3DS XL Charging Cradle that is bundled with an AC Adapter will be available for purchase in retailers across Europe starting August 24th. You can pre-order the bundle from Amazon here.

        1. So you can just lay the handheld onto the cradle and not have to plug anything into the 3DS in order for it to charge.

            1. Eh, I don’t know, I don’t use it for my regular 3DS, It’s just so you don’t bother with picking up the wire and having to plug it into the handheld.

  1. What I want is a special edition 3DS XL…
    I just hate the 3DS XL design, the rounded corners and everything always make me think of the original DS when I see 3DS XL. They should’ve gone with more DSi type of look, I would’ve liked that a lot more.
    The only thing that could save 3DS XL from looking awful is the coloring. And the color choices aren’t that great either… It’s cool that they tried a bit different colors but then again… No.
    I really want to buy a 3DS XL but the bad design and poor color choices bother me too much. Maybe they will one day publish some sort of special edition of 3DS XL, like they had with Mario and DSi XL and also Zelda and 3DS. If it has cool-enough pictures on the top, even I can forgive the faulty design…

        There. No one else needs to comment.

        1. Oh and I forgot how people like to compare it to the Vita. Allow me to add that in.

          ^NOTE I SAID PROBABLY

            1. No no, apologies if it came out that way. Just I have a feeling people will be coming at you soon hating on Sony and Microsoft in the process.

    1. Okay, in all seriousness, id say get a WiiU first, you got plently of time to save up, get a bunch of games, then get a 3DS in the first quarter of next year, that when gMes like Paper Mario, Luigis Mansion and Castlevania are gona show up

  3. Bing Bang Bazaaaam!! How are there even comments on this? Like seriously… Nintendo is offering a “cradle” stand thing, whats the big deal? If you dont want it dont hate on it.. leave it alone. Some people actually like the cradle. I know I do so maybe I’ll buy it!!! Bonk Bloop Blop!!!!

          1. hey foureyes, stop jammin if you don’t know how its like to be a 34 year old;) you’re acting like quite a little munchkin yourself

      1. Banngg Boing Bingo! Lol this is what I’m talking about! I’m sure there are many people who dont “use the cradle” just like you, but does that make the cradle a bad thing? Nintendo doesnt “require” anyone to buy it. It is there if you want it. People shouldnt complain about somthing if it LITERALLY doesnt effect you…at all…
