New 3ds

It's possible but that's like games being released only for the slim PS3. You're basically punishing the consumer that bought your console at launch.

I believe it's actually a different console, Nintendo just can't get their naming right. Think of it like an iPad1 and an iPad2, eventually the iPad1's support wanes.
 
Somehow I don't think devs will make use of the extra processing power. They're not going to cut the people who bought previous consoles out of their potential profits.

At the moment there is only Xenoblade and judging from the DSi I don't think there will be many games.



If they do they will make it exclusive, but don't see the main series games doing it like Pokemon as they will lose sales.

I'm sure that it will happen over time, games will start to come out which only support the "new 3ds"

As Ichigo said, Xenoblade Chronicles will be the first game that is not supported by the older consoles. I feel a bit miff about that. I really want to play that game, but I have to get a new console to play it.
 
Oh I misunderstood then. Makes more sense then I guess. Anyhow for those planning to buy one (without having owned a previous DS console) apparently it doesn't include a charger:

Yep all shops should still sell them as they did when I got my 3ds xl as my DS lite charger didn't fit.

If you got a Wii/Wii U you can still play Xenoblade on there although it won't be the newest one.

Ja...but it isn't the same. Also Xenoblade Chronicles on the Wii is pretty expensive for some reason.
 
Xenoblade is one of the reasons I decided to get the New 3DS. I've always wanted to play it.

It will be interesting to see what other games Nintendo releases exclusively for the New 3DS.

Did you get your N3ds yet still no sign of mine and called Takealot to complain
 
I'm pretty jealous. I never played Majora's Mask, but I've always been keen. I'll perhaps pick it up when the price goes down a little.

Will you buy Physical or Digital usually the digital drops not sure about physical Zelda games?

I heard Majora's Mask is quite good it is also my first Zelda game :)
