Maybe those overall hardware improvements will make the framerate of Snake Eater 3D suck less. 
I needed to upgrade to an XL sooner or later anyway, so this will be the perfect opportunity for me.
Ditto, I still have my launch 3DS and it's definitely seen better days.
I doubt if existing games will be improved at all, though. I mean, I'd LIKE it if they were, but just knowing Nintendo's track record, that's really not their thing.
Seriously, Nintendo? You improved the 3DS in so many areas, but you didn't heighten the resolution? Something that desperately needed to be improved.
That's probably because they're selling this as a marginal upgrade ala the DSi. Upping screen resolution means an actual new system.
I mean, hell, if they can't even be bothered to make the WiiU upscale Wii games, no way in hell are they changing resolutions of an existing handheld.
With Smash 3DS having at least 6 stages from past games, I had a thought: Why not Smash 64 stages? If so, I'd prefer they use the ones not in Melee. Ones like Saffron City and Hyrule Castle. And I'd personally like Sector Z over Corneria again. Corneria is just too small.
We need 64's Metal Mario level, if only to ensure the music makes it in.
