nintendo reminds me of apple
Except Nintendo doesn't overprice their systems.
Yeah, until they release the non-XL version, I'm not getting the New 3DS.
Which will probably NEVER happen by the way.
Didn't release with the XL ≠ never releasing
The XL is just to start up the sales on the next generation 3DS systems. The original ones are still selling well, and after they reached their peak and drop in sales, the normal sized one will come out. After all, manufacturing both decals and systems can be expensive and risky if nobody's going to buy them.
