I'm pretty excited for it! I'm getting the small version and a few faceplates.

I might, but right now I'm leaning towards no. Xenoblade is very tempting, but I don't do much handheld gaming outside of my apartment so it really doesn't server much of a point.

I'll probably get the non-XL version but I would like to see if the new XL can fit comfortably in my jeans pocket before deciding.

I can't see myself buying one anytime soon. I don't play my 3DS that much these days, so unless there's a game that I must have that only works on the new 3DS, I'll probably never buy one.

Showing my ugly face to participate in this poll & say that I intend to buy the XL one.
Upgrades on my favorite system are always most welcome.

Probably an XL because apparently my pockets are unnaturally large or something.

@Davoid

You should show up more often! How you been?

Getting both, probably the smaller one first.

I'm heavily leaning towards buying the New 3DS because of the hardware refinements and expanded library of games led by Xenoblade Chronicles. I'm a big fan of the handheld, so I don't think I'd stay behind as it evolves.

I'd love to get the 3DS XL at some point, it looks really nice and I am in need of a new 3DS anyways by now.

I've been waiting for a remodeled 3DS to come along, so yeah now I'll finally be able to pick one up, and I'll get the XL.

-I should. I will. I've been through a long relationship & I'm currently in the moving process for the next 2 weeks. Otherwise, I've been great. Missed you guys.

Yah! We gotta TCG again!

Some goons might be getting into it now there's an.. (shudder) *iPad* version. We should start a league.

@Shadowlink

I wish I truly understood how to play and handle that damn game on iMac. I mean, I know I can... but like... how do you build decks? Is it all free or do you buy digital cards? Etc etc
09/01/14, 06:26   
I want to get into the Pokemon TCG, but also don't because I fear I would become obsessed.

@DrFinkelstein

All of the above I think

I haven't played in a while & I only just downloaded the new PC client. But from what little I dabbled in before, creating an account will net you a handful of starter decks & winning games against the AI challengers can net you some new cards with which you can customise your decks. All that is available for free along with PvP.

As I understand it though you can buy physical decks & boosters, which come with a code that you can use to unlock the cards in your online collection. I'm not sure if you can choose to buy online stuff only or not- I would think you could, but again I've only really dabbled in the free to play side of things. Davoid can probably elaborate more.

I probably would if I didn't have an XL, but I really like my XL and the benefits aren't quite enough for me to upgrade.

This exactly.

I can't vote until I see a price. If I like the deal, I'd get the XL.

Twould be hard to justify ANOTHER 3DS (I could pass off my old one to the boy in 5 years...)

Will be buying the smaller of the two for sure. Day one, most likely.

@GameDadGrant

Why the standard instead of the XL? (just curious)
09/01/14, 23:46   
I want to get the XL version to play Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, that is if the system is even out in America before the game's release...
