Product Description
This Nintendo 3DS portable gaming console enables users to enjoy gaming on the go. The 3D capability on the Nintendo 3DS XL allows the action to pop out of the screen without needing 3D glasses. This is a 3D console but games do not have to be played in 3D mode. The dimensions of the Nintendo 3DS XL are 6.1 inches in width by 0.8 inches in height by 3.5 inches in depth and the weight is 11.9 oz. These dimensions and weight make this blue and black handheld console lightweight and easy to use. Input into the Nintendo 3DS can be done via stylus, touch-screen, game pad, and four-way cross keypad. The battery life on this portable gaming console is up to 10 hours on a full charge. Players can also play on the unit while the battery is being recharged. The Nintendo 3DS XL offers a flip-open screen that allows users to use the top and bottom screen depending on the game being played.

It's a must have for any Pokémon fan, otherwise, get the standard 3DS XL.

Yes, I would recommend this product to a friend.

First, I want to say that the Nintendo 3DS XL is one of the, if not THE, best hand-held gaming console on the market right now; it's only real contender for me is the standard 3DS itself, some people prefer it to the XL.

Not only does it have a huge variety of games available; from the Nintendo classics that we know and love, to awesome titles that are making their way into the DS for the first time, like Metal Gear Solid and even Splinter Cell if you like games that are a little bit more grown-up; but it also has plenty of cool features in both software and hardware.

On the software side, it's main menu has a more grown-up feel when compared to the DS Lite and DSi, it truly feels like more than just a hand-held console. Also, you don't have to restart the console every time you want to change a game or just check the main menu to change some settings.

On the hardware side the most obvious feature is the glasses-free 3D screen that enables you to view 3D content without the clunky, expensive glasses that come with 3D TVs. Also an awesome feature exclusive to the XL version is the 90% bigger screens compared to the normal 3DS; you might think that it's not a big deal, but believe me, once you play with the XL, your normal 3DS is not going to feel how it used to... Being able to see details that you previously couldn't really changes the whole experience of playing a game. A side benefit of the bigger size is that, it's bigger, meaning that if you just felt that your normal 3DS was too small for your hands (which is probably the case if you are an adult), then the XL is going to be a welcome upgrade for you, I can play longer without getting my hands all cramped up, and the shoulder L and R buttons are easier to press. Finally on the hardware, I have to say that the battery life is just as or even better than the normal 3DS; it isn't close to competing with the battery life of the DS Lite, but it is noticeably better than the normal 3DS since they had more room to fit a bigger battery that has to power bigger screens, but the same inside components.

Now I'm going to talk about this particular 3DS XL, the limited edition Pikachu 3DS XL. As a die-hard Pokémon fan, I have nothing bad to say about this device, but speaking without bias, I can say that it's not for everyone.

First of all, it's the fact that the whole console is a bright, electric yellow. This might seem cool to some, but maybe not that manly to others. The fact that it has a very cartoonish Pikachu doesn't help it either. But if you don't mind any of that (which you probably don't if you are considering buying this version of the XL), then it shouldn't worry you at all.

Another issue is the fact that it is white on the inside and all around on the hinge and shoulder button section. This makes it look really cool, but be wary, it is a dirt magnet and has to be cleaned in order to keep it nice and clean. It's not as bad as the white DS Lite, which used to get dirty beyond cleaning after some serious usage, but it still needs to be cleaned to keep it looking nice.

The final issue is the fact that this is a limited edition item. I was lucky enough to get mine at a good price, ($250) but that's still $50 above it's original retail price; nowadays (July 2013) they are going for as much as $350 for a brand new device. This should only dissuade you if you aren't a Pokemon fan, because if you are, then you should be used to paying above retail prices for collecting Pokemon gear.

Review For: Nintendo 3DS XL Mario Kart 7 Bundle Blue & Black (NTSC)

The Nintendo 3DS XL provides improvements over the standard 3DS. The game selection appeals to a wide audience, but the current selection is not yet very broad. The 3D component is interesting and, along with the touch screen and dual screen components, allows for some great gameplay dynamics.

The visual resolution is impressive for what it is, and the wireless internet and download options add greater functionality to the device beyond that of merely a handheld gaming platform. You can swap messages with friends, download full game titles (both old and new), download and stream videos via Netflix and other sources, and you can even take your own 3D photos. The sound quality is pretty good, and the screen size is nice for a handheld. The little add-ons really make a big difference for this system.

However, the price is still an issue. Each game title has a retail price that rivals that of console games. The lack of a second thumbstick without an additional peripheral leaves something to be desired the control scheme for some games.

Review For: Nintendo 3DS XL Mario Kart 7 Bundle Blue & Black (NTSC)

Well, let's start this off by saying that $190 is about the same as a new iPod Touch 4th generation on Amazon. Except, you get a bigger screen, TWO screens, 3D capability and NINTENDO GAMES! I have that same iPod and I'm extremely happy! The 3D doesn't give me a headache, the dual-screens are amazing quality! And closing the unit doesn't scratch the screen like it does on the original 3DS. I upgraded from a DSI so this is like whoa to me. The color is BEAUTIFUL! I got this BRAND NEW with a free Zelda game for $190 from the nicest seller in the world. Look on eBay - THERE ARE SO MANY! This was my Christmas present to myself (my excuse for buying it!) and I'm in love. The picture quality is great, however the camera is terrible. But who needs it!? All of the features inside a 3DS are GREAT, but if you're getting one, get the XL NOT the original. Once you play on this thing, you will never go back to those tiny screens! If you're playing DS/DSI games on this, WORRY NOT! They are blown up to fit the new screen and NO, they do not look pixelated! Trust me on this, this has been my favorite purchase on eBay EVER. They are going for $199 in-store PLUS tax, and NO free game! I recommend buying this on Ebay and I ESPECIALLY RECOMMEND GETTING THIS SYSTEM! Sure, there aren't many 3DS games yet but here are the BEST to me so far, NO SPECIFIC ORDER:

1. Zelda
2. Kid Icarus
3. Tales of the Abyss
4. Resident Evil Revelations
5. Animal Crossing 3DS (coming out in a few months, it'll be great)
6. Harvest Moon 3DS (pre-order it now and get a free Yak or Cow plushie!)


Bottom line is,
if you're going to buy your kids or whoever a DS, get them this one and be done for the next few years. I made the mistake of buying a DSI the year the 3DS came out and all of the new games came out for the 3DS so I was very behind! The 3DS is still new and fresh and games are STILLL coming out for it! Get this NOW and be done with gifting for a while. ;)

Great console, great games, lots of fun.

Yes, I would recommend this product to a friend.

In my humble opinion, this is by far the best mobile console out in the market right now, considering it can play DS & 3DS games the game library is great, the extra size makes it a lot more comfortable to hold and use and the extra battery size (lasting up to 20 hrs of single player games in my experience) is great for mobility.

The most attractive factor is the new 3d games, Ocarina of Time 3D is a great game that makes good use of the 3D capabilities, mario 3D land is a very good experience in 3D as well, now I'm playing kid icarus uprising and the graphics and 3D mode go really well with it.

Review For: Nintendo 3DS XL Mario Kart 7 Bundle Blue & Black (NTSC)

I am a 19 year old male in college and I must say that this system is a great way to entertain yourself when you have down time.

The system has a very appealing design who's curved edges fit naturally in your palms. The generous screen sizes along with the 3D display surpass all other handheld gaming experiences I have had in the past. I appreciate the fact that you can go onto the built in Nintendo Store with Wi-fi and purchase popular games on demand.

The Mario Kart bundle is definitely a great buy in the sense that it contains one of he most popular and well designed games currently available on the system. I have had the system for about three weeks and I still have not unlocked everything and am entertained by online gameplay.

A downside that I must mention about the system is that battery will run out quick. Get into the habit of charging the system every night like a phone because you will be disappointed when you want to have a quick race in Mario Kart and you are given a red light that indicates low battery.
