Smash 3DS Who will you main: 2DS, 3DS or 3DS XL?

[Yori]

I'll give it a whirl on my red 3DS. However, if my hands cramp up or I feel the characters are a bit small for me to see, I'll definitely upgrade to an XL.

That's where the awesome outlines come in :D.
Though I doubt they'll even be necessary, when I play 4player I'll probably play on my Wii U and 1v1 will probably zoom in a lot.

 

[captainghost07]

i got a 2ds and i personally think that it will be the best way to play because of where the triggers are and it feels more comfortable than a regular 3ds but that's just my opinion

 

[Funkermonster]

Never got to play 3DS version at Best Buy, but I think I'll upgrade to XL if my parents will allow it. I was told that the characters look way too small on the Regular 3DS version and its very hard to tell which one is you or see what you're doing. Sounds like a pretty bad disadvantage, so I guess its out with the old and in with the new, eh?

My blasted 3DS has volume issues anyway.

 

[Deap]

normal 3ds

 

[RCyclone]

I'll be getting a 3DS XL, since I enjoyed playing on it at the Best buy smash fest.

 

[Richtea007]

The old 3DS will do just fine for me .

 

[SnazzyUprising]

I have had my little blue original 3ds for almost 2 years now. So i might as well take it through this game too.
Hopefully i can get some sort of 3ds xl next year. But i'm gonna keep for now.

[im just peachy]

The old 3DS will do just fine for me .

people were saying at E3 that even on the XL the characters got really small, be careful

 

[Fluttershy]

I'll be using my royal Blue normal 3ds.. unless it breaks in some fashion again.. (had red one but the top screen broke..)

 

[SupermanNKO]

i still think 2ds is best for this game, but if the characters are small i might have to go to an xl

 

[Reila]

People who supposedly played the game were saying the opposite thing in the internet. Also, we should filter what they read about Smash 3DS, since some people will talk **** about it just because they don't like the idea of the game being on the 3DS.

Anyways, I was thinking about buying a 2DS for Smash, but I ended up buying a 3DS XL. Hopefully I will not regret this decision.

 

[Katty Shepherd]

I'll be playing it on my regular old 3DS game because that's what I got. But when the Wii U comes out I'll be switching mainly over to that, probably. It'll depend on which one turns out to be better and I prefer. I just hope the controls aren't too different from brawl's wii control before that's what I mainly play.

 

[dezeray112]

I still have my original 3DS so I could play that version.

 

[Yoyomega]

I'm going to use my 3DS I have (original red one)

 

[yoyowoodchuckguy]

OG 3DS. I just bought my brother's cheap.

 

[Stalwartguardian]

XL, because that's the one I have.

 

[Raijinken]

I'll just use my Awakening 3DS standard. Too much emotional attachment to buy an XL or anything.

 

[The Light Music Club]

I plan on using my regular 3DS that I bought originally for Ace Attorney Dual Destines. I was thinking about getting an XL but is it really worth the money? I used to be able to play Brawl on a very tiny Karaoke System screen because some other sibling was hogging the big TV. I think I'll be just fine. Also, with the amount of one-player melee I've been playing (disabling the c-stick) I think I'll be ok without the circle-pad pro.

 

[Reaca]

I will definitely be using the blue Pokemon X/Y XL that I got last year.

 

[MAtgSy]

Got 3DS on launch & haven't looked back. Although if there is a particularly inticing bundle with a different model, I may give my current one to my SO,

 

[Aninymouse]

I will definitely be using the blue Pokemon X/Y XL that I got last year.

Yeah, boi. I got me a red one o' those.

It is a tad heavy, though. I hear the 2DS is more comfortable, but I just can't see buying another DS...

 

[Reaca]

Yeah, boi. I got me a red one o' those.

It is a tad heavy, though. I hear the 2DS is more comfortable, but I just can't see buying another DS...

I know what you mean, but I just couldn't justify buying another DS for myself.

 

[RPGatWill]

3DS XL for me. Even the bigger size fits easily in my pockets. I gots big pockets on my jackets.

 

[JUr]

I bought mine in february, the standard 3DS was in a really low price and while walking to pay I had the epiphany about Sm4sh, so I returned and took a red XL hehe

 

[MrBond]

I'll be using my A Link Between Worlds 3DS XL mainly. Then switch to my ambassador cyan 3DS when I realize how much Smash will destroy my XL.

 

[25%Cotton]

my gorgeous cobalt LL with incomparably flawless matte finish

 

[CoolEric258]

I only have regular 3DS, so...yeah.

 

[jacobjeb]

ill be playing on regular 3ds. although i did play it on the xl at the best buy smash event, and it was really nice. im sure it would be better with the xl, but im fine without it.

 

[Babali Boon]

3DS XL is top tier!

I'll be using the XL for my Smash.

Same here. I never got a 3DS, but went out and bought a blue 3DS XL+3D Land when XY were announced. Was one of the smartest decisions ever. It's my favorite Nintendo handheld I have owned, and I have owned them all (minus og 3DS/GBA Micro).

 

[Reila]

3DS XL, since it is the one I have. It kinda gives me hand cramps, though (unlike the small 3DS), so I will probably buy a hand grip when the game is out.

 

[Folt]

I have a really sweet Fire Emblem: Awakening XL model, and I do not believe I'll be changing from that any time soon, so XL it is.

 

[YoPoYo9100]

I will be purchasing an XL model soon, unless they announce a special edition Smash 3DSXL bundle, then I will buy that instead.

 

[DevaAshera]

My original plan was to play on my original Aqua Ambassador Model, but since I came into some extra money, I upgraded to the Gold Hyrule/Lorule Nintendo 3DS XL, especially after hearing that characters appeared a bit small even on the XL. I still think that was probably exaggerated, but better safe then sorry.

Plus I'm OCD as all get out and I couldn't stand the scratches the Bottom Screen Frame left on the wider Top Screen nor how easily Finger Prints shown on the Shiny Finish of the OG 3DS.

Now that I've seen how nice the games I already have look on the larger screen, I know I will not regret this decision when Smash releases.

 

[Aureola]

The only one I own is the original version, so I guess that's what I'm going to play. If I wanted an XL, I probably would've gotten one long before now.

 

[Mike_Tha_Hero]

My 3DS is an XL but I'm may seriously consider getting a 2DS just for this. It seems like a silly waste (which it may very well be) but I've always had this weird thing when it came to fighting games on DS. It seems like the screen would move around too much. Maybe it'd an irrational fear of the clamshell becoming loose.

 

[Challenger]

The original 3DS is the only one I own, and I have no plans or reason to buy a different model, so I'll be playing on it.

 

[GlitchyFireEmblem]

I have a Pokémon themed 3DS XL, my old 3DS is almost broken, so I'm definitely using my XL, since it is my main handheld.

 

[Probalo]

Well, I have a 3DS XL. So... 3DS XL it is! Plus the screens are larger so that's always a good thing.

People say everything, Just because someone says it doesn't mean it's true, nor does it mean they're lying.

I went to our local Smashfest with a group of six, and we came away with totally different opinions. Two guys said that the 3DS version was too small and awkward and they weren't sure they wanted it; three others said it was easier to see what was going on than they'd expected, and looked fantastic; I upgraded to a 3DS XL because I finally realized how significant of a difference there was between the two models and was blown away.

All six of us played the same game at the same time. Opinions differ.

Also, I think you made the right choice. I ****ing love my XL.

 

[Holychicken]

I plan on getting a 3ds, just for the sake of having the 3d for other games and having the extra hand space.

Has anyone here held a 2ds? How does it feel in your hands?
