Great news if you’re a Zelda fan and reside in Europe as Nintendo has announced that the two Zelda themed faceplates that were previously announced for Japan will be coming to Europe on February 27th. You’ll only be able to use the faceplates if you have a New Nintendo 3DS and not a New Nintendo 3DS XL. With that said, they look like an essential purchase.

The Regular Black design looks much better
Now those are awsome. This looks much better than the special edition 3ds xl to me.. I fact this is what the special edition should have looked like. Black and colorful instead of gold..
…and the US still wonders if they’ll ever see them
Fucking dammit Nintendo. I don’t even care about screen size now. Those faceplates are gorgeous but you leave America in the dust. Fuck you.
I’m happy with the look of new XL, actually I love it. It looks pretty slick. I really like the carbon finish. It looks superb when reflecting in the light just right.
I really got to get used to the new stylus and power button position. The new stylus position feels especially awkward.
Don’t get me wrong though, No.23 is nice.
I think that “C Stick” is a joke. I even find that impractical and uncomfortable to use. Is it too much to ask for a full second stick from Circle Pad Pro?
You don’t have to tell me. I’ve been asking for the same from Nintendo ever since they made the 3DS. To be honest I don’t like the circle pad in general, it works, but not as nice as an actual analog stick.
I agree, the c-stick on the New 3DS isn’t amazing or anything either, but I’ll take it over having to get out my circle pad pro. Their next handheld needs better for sure.
Not to ask for another add on, just build it in and maybe slightly miniaturize it to reasonable size. That little nub doesn’t feel like anything like a stick or that little track pad old laptops use to have. Believe me. I know what those things feel like and this isn’t it. lol I don’t think it’s worth the upgrade and we all know there’s gonna be another brand new system (next gen likely) in another 2-3 years from now and could be also part of Nintendo’s new home console system with a portable sub-console.
And for fucking UK that doesn’t two shits about Nintendo anyway.
And they’re not upside down like every one of the special edition 3DS XL
….
Thanks Obama! >:[
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!
Meanwhile in the US…..
Cover plates not Faceplates

No.23 looks super nice. Very classy and subtle imo. Personally, I’d take it over the special edition XL any time.
I really feel bad that Nintendo isnt bringing the regular New 3DS to NA, this a really dumb move by Nintendo. I sure am glad that I live in a place where they sell both US and European systems!:)

I came just to read and laugh at all jealous Americans.
I fucking hate UK for getting so much good shit from Nintendo and yet they don’t ever fucking support them but rather keep buying garbage like COD. When the fuck will Nintendo realize America is a better supporter and UK is a huge waste of time?
