Basically compared to the old 3DS this one is lighter smaller body yet still retains the same screen size ratio as the previous generation or actually the previous 3DS XL there’s a cover over the cartridge now which was a huge flaw and not heavy one in the other previous systems and with almost the same battery life as the regular 3DS XL this is hard to pass up May negative thing I would say about this is the placement of the stylus which is on the bottom but aside from that there’s nothing that I can say about this and even a little button in the middle of the poke ball clicks
