I'm not getting one and I'd never get a Vita if it was "XL".

They aren't too portable if they are that big.

All that open space. You'd think they'd have enough wisdom to put a..... wait for it................... second analog stick right there! But no, this is Nintendo we're talking about. They don't care what consumers want.

that will come in a later model just to get fans to buy another

typical for release dates lol, i just got my 3ds and would like a bigger screen although a bigger screen has a smaller "sweet spot" for the 3d

Well at least Sony listened to the consumers and added a second analog this generation... going to take nintendo two gens to figure that out it seems.

Well, look at history repeat itself, in a few months time, or later next year, well see Nintendo 3DSi, but still with a single circle pad. Next its gonna come in with a 3DS Lite. The next big question, would be "which came first, The 3DS, or the 3DSXL?". Somewhat similar to, the chicken and the egg.

Nintendo forgot "Built-In Circle Pad Pro". What's the point in making a hardware revision, if you don't address all of the hardware issues with the original hardware? Besides, this 3DSXL won't fit in anyone's pocket. And people were calling the original 3DS hardware a 'design failure'.

And if they add another stick people who have orginal 3ds will just moan. They made their choice when they released the 3ds.

Major changes with the next gen handheld
