My old 3DS XL and my "New" 3DS XL.

Well I finally got my "New" 3DS XL on Friday morning, bought myself a 32 GB mini SD card and some a new tool because I didn't want to look around the house for Philips Head 0 screw drive. Drove home, opened up the back and changed out that 4GB mini SD card for the 32 GB. Turned both my old 3DS and the new one on to intitated the system transfer which wasn't that bad. Still had to deal with a bunch of network errors at first but it transferred all my games over. The head tracking 3D is neat but I probably won't use because it does drain your 3DS a lot faster. The two extra buttons (ZL and ZR) are actually comfortable to use. Plus I don't have to worry about turning the volume up or down because the volume adjuster is on the top half of the 3DS now, thank god. As for the c-stick, well its functional but awkward to use. Now just comes with reworking the muscle memory while playing because I kept forgetting it was there.

I guess "ease of access" was tossed out of the window when Nintendo was designing this thing.

Network errors be damned.

Also I downloaded Star Fox 64 3D and Resident Evil: Revelations (I already have the cart but I gave it to my niece so we could play raid mode together.)

All my games transferred, I heard not all people were lucky.

First movie I that I saw this year and it was pretty good. It reminded me of Guardians of Galaxy; it was fun movie but not so much of game changer. Colin Firth bought some class as action star and Samuel L. Jackson couldn't be any more of a dork as Richard Valentine. Sofia Boutella was one of the highlights of film as she portrayed a disabled woman who was evil and didn't let anything get in her way (like her disability). Not to mention that scene in the church which was set to Lynyrd Skynyrd's Free Bird; just absolute mayhem.

Kingsman: The Secret Service is something you should go out and watch if you have the time. Don't let 50 Shades of romantizing abusive relationships win at the box office.

That is all.

I forgot about Kingsmen. I'd like to see that one.

Yeah i got my 3DS too.  I didn't consider that about the head tracking... but I do like it, and will probably leave it on.

My my, does the new 3DS XL have to be even bigger than the old one? I can barely carry the one I have around in my pocket as it is.
