It is the fourth system in the Nintendo 3DS family of handheld consoles, following the original Nintendo 3DS, the Nintendo 3DS XL, and the Nintendo 2DS. The system was released in Japan on October 11, 2014, in Australia and New Zealand on November 21, 2014, on January 6, 2015 in Europe in a special Club Nintendo - exclusive `` Ambassador Edition '', and at retail in Europe on February 13, 2015. Like the original 3DS, the New Nintendo 3DS also has a larger variant, the New Nintendo 3DS XL, released in all three regions. In North America, the New Nintendo 3DS XL was released on February 13, 2015, while the standard - sized New Nintendo 3DS was released later on September 25, 2015. Improvements upon the previous models include upgraded processors and increased RAM, an analog pointing stick ( C - Stick ), two additional shoulder triggers ( ZR and ZL ), face detection for optimizing the auto stereoscopic 3D display, an included 4 GB microSD card and built - in NFC, as well as minor design changes ( such as colored face buttons, and the availability of face plates for the smaller - size model ). The New Nintendo 3DS received positive reception from critics ; although criticized for certain aspects of their design ( such as the micro SD slot placement ), the consoles were praised for their improved performance, additional control options, and better 3D image quality. It was reported in July 2017 that production of the original New Nintendo 3DS has ceased in both Japan and Europe, though the XL models would still be produced. Contents 1 Hardware 2 Software and services 2.1 Compatibility 3 Release 4 Reception 4.1 Sales 5 See also 6 Notes 7 References 8 External links Hardware See also : Nintendo 3DS hardware The New Nintendo 3DS family features various changes from prior models. The systems feature a slightly refined design, featuring colored face buttons resembling the Super Famicom 's and PAL version Super Nintendo Entertainment System 's color scheme. The New Nintendo 3DS 's screen is 1.2 times the size of the original Nintendo 3DS, while the screen of the XL variant is the same size as its predecessor. Some models are produced with an IPS screen for the upper display, but some still retain the old TN screen for upper display. There is no known correlation between model number or production date and display type. Nintendo has also not publicly addressed the discrepancies in production. A new feature known as `` Super Stable 3D '' improves the quality of the systems ' autostereoscopic 3D effects by using a sensor to detect the angle that the player is viewing the screen at, and adjusting the effects to compensate. The sensor is also used as an ambient light sensor for automatic brightness adjustment. Both systems ' bodies are slightly larger than their previous iterations, with the XL variant weighing slightly less than the previous 3DS XL. The system 's game card slot, stylus holder, and power button were re-located to the base. The hardware wireless switch was also replaced by a software toggle. The standard New Nintendo 3DS features interchangeable front and back plates ; 38 different designs were available at launch in Japan. The XL variant does not allow use of these plates, instead having a couple of fixed metallic designs. The internal specifications of the device have also been updated, including additional processor cores, an increase to 256 MB of RAM, and near field communication support for use with Amiibo products. Controls on the new systems were expanded with the inclusion of a pointing stick on the right hand side of the device, referred to as the `` C - Stick '', and additional ZL and ZR shoulder buttons, allowing for functionality equivalent to the Circle Pad Pro add - on peripheral released for previous models. These additional buttons are backwards - compatible with games programmed for use with Circle Pad Pro. Unlike previous models, which used standard SD cards, the New Nintendo 3DS line uses Micro-SD cards for data storage, which are stored alongside the battery behind the device 's rear cover, which needs some screws to be removed in order to access the Micro-SD card slot. Data can also be transferred to and from the SD card wirelessly using any system with SMB client access, like PCs. The new systems continue to use the same AC adapter as the DSi and other devices in the 3DS family ; like the Nintendo 3DS XL in Japan and Europe, and for the first time in North America, an AC adapter is not included with the console and must be obtained separately. Software and services Main article : Nintendo 3DS system software Aside from minor adjustments to reflect its hardware design differences, the system software of the New Nintendo 3DS is otherwise identical to that of the original 3DS, offering online features such as Nintendo Network for multiplayer and online gaming, Nintendo eShop for downloading and purchasing games, and StreetPass and SpotPass. The web browser was updated to include HTML5 - based video playback support. On Japanese models, a content filter is active by default which can be disabled with the registration of a credit card, intended to prevent children from visiting mature websites. Compatibility As with prior models, the New Nintendo 3DS family remains compatible with all games released for the 3DS and DS ( excluding games using the Game Boy Advance cartridge slot ). As with the DS and DSi, some 3DS games have improved performance and / or graphics on the new systems due to their upgraded hardware. The C - Stick and ZL / ZR controls are backwards compatible with games that support the Circle Pad Pro add - on. Some games, such as Xenoblade Chronicles 3D and Minecraft : New Nintendo 3DS Edition, are specifically optimized for the upgraded hardware, and exclusive to New Nintendo 3DS with no support for prior models. In March 2016, Nintendo began to release SNES titles on Virtual Console for New 3DS ; they support a `` Perfect Pixel '' mode, which allows the games to be played in their original aspect ratio. Like previous models, all 3DS games and downloaded software are region - locked ( DS cartridges remain region - free ). Due to its difference in size, peripherals designed to fit the shape of the original Nintendo 3DS can not be used with the new system. Game data can be transferred from a previous 3DS system to a new system, either manually or wireless, though data from new systems can not be transferred to older systems. On April 13, 2015, Unity Technologies announced that the Unity engine would support New Nintendo 3DS. Release New Nintendo 3DS XL in metallic black. New Nintendo 3DS XL logo.

Further information : List of New Nintendo 3DS colors and styles The New Nintendo 3DS was first announced during a Japanese Nintendo Direct presentation streamed on August 29, 2014. The New Nintendo 3DS and 3DS LL were released in Japan on October 11, 2014 ; the regular - sized version was made available in black and white - colored versions, while the LL was made available in metallic blue and metallic black versions, with additional limited edition designs Over 38 different face plate designs were available on launch in Japan, which were showcased in a pre-launch television commercial that featured J - pop performer Kyary Pamyu Pamyu. 230,000 units were sold in its first two days of availability. The New Nintendo 3DS and its XL variant were first released outside Japan -- in Australia and New Zealand, on November 21, 2014, with the smaller model only available in white. In Europe, the New Nintendo 3DS was first made available online on January 6, 2015 in a special white `` Ambassador Edition '' bundle, exclusive to Club Nintendo members, with a charging dock and two face plates included. On January 14, 2015, Nintendo announced that the new systems would be released at retail in North America and Europe on February 13, 2015. In Europe, the New Nintendo 3DS was available in black or white, and its XL variant in Metallic Black or Metallic Blue. In North America, the XL model was released in Metallic Red and Metallic Black ( renamed `` New Red '' and `` New Black '' ). Special The Legend of Zelda : Majora 's Mask 3D and Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate - themed variants were also released at launch in both regions. 335,000 units were sold during its first week of availability in Europe and North America. Only the XL model was originally released in North America ; although Nintendo did not rule out the possibility of a release of the regular New Nintendo 3DS in the future, Nintendo of America representative Damon Baker explained that they did not want to confuse consumers, and that the face plates were not enough of a reason for the smaller - sized system to be released in North America. A social media campaign emerged that called upon Nintendo of America to release the model in North America. In March 2015, the FCC lifted its information embargo regarding regulation details performed in September 2014 on the standard New Nintendo 3DS model, suggesting Nintendo of America did indeed consider releasing the smaller standard model at one point. On August 31, 2015, at the GameStop Managers Conference in Las Vegas, Nintendo of America confirmed that the standard New 3DS system would launch in the region on September 25, 2015, with an Animal Crossing : Happy Home Designer - themed bundle including the console, game software, two faceplates, and an Amiibo card. A second The Legend of Zelda - themed XL bundle, the `` Hyrule Edition '', was also announced as a GameStop exclusive for release on October 30, 2015. In January 2016, a special Pokémon - themed New Nintendo 3DS bundle was announced for release in North America on February 27, 2016, to coincide with the 20th anniversary Virtual Console release of the original Pokémon games. The model is bundled with both Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue, Charizard and Blastoise - themed faceplates, and a downloadable Home Menu skin. In August 2016, a Super Mario 3D Land New 3DS bundle with two faceplates was released in North America as an exclusive to Target and Walmart. Nintendo released black - and white - colored New 3DS models with Mario - themed designs in North America in November 2016 ; for Black Friday, the two models were sold at US $99.99 -- a price only $20 higher than that of the 2DS. In July 2017, Nintendo confirmed, in the lead - up to the release of the New Nintendo 2DS XL, that production on the standard - sized New Nintendo 3DS in Japan had ended. The XL model remains in production... Reception Reviews of the New Nintendo 3DS line were mostly positive. Critics felt the new `` Super-Stable 3D '' system was successful in improving the consistency and viewing angles of the device 's stereoscopic 3D effects, especially in games that require use of its gyroscope. An IGN writer noted that `` the constant swaying and occasional jolt of my morning train commute has only very occasionally shattered the new systems ' stereoscopic spell, and even then, the system quickly adjusts and snaps back into focus ''. The improved technical specifications of the new systems were also noted, making the device 's operating system more responsive and providing modest performance enhancements for existing games such as Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. The incorporation of the Circle Pad Pro 's additional shoulder buttons and secondary analog stick into the devices were praised, along with their potential for use in ports of games from home consoles. Opinions were mixed on the design of the C - Stick itself, however ; GameSpot felt it was `` surprisingly responsive '' and IGN drew comparisons to the similar pointing stick sometimes found on ThinkPad laptops, but felt that while good for occasional functions ( such as camera control and aiming in third - person games ), it would not function well for more intense use cases ( such as first - person shooters ) due to its size and lack of grip in comparison to the Circle Pad. Aspects of the devices ' designs were noted ; IGN felt that the face plate options on the regular - sized models added a level of personalization to the console, but that `` ( while ) face plates will take off with younger gamers in particular, these accessories could just as easily end up in the bargain bin faster than you can say Limited Edition Perfect Dark Zero Xbox 360 face plate. '' Nintendo 's decision to exclude this feature from the XL version was also considered odd. Wired felt that the new locations for the power button, card slot, and stylus holder were `` inconvenient ''. Critics also felt the switch to MicroSD cards and the relocation of the SD card slot to the battery compartment would make manually transferring data from previous 3DS models trickier ; GameSpot lamented on the difficulty of unscrewing the rear cover off the XL, citing `` stubborn screws and a panel that practically refuses to detach ''. Nintendo 's decision to not bundle an AC adapter with the new models was criticized, particularly in the case of first - time 3DS owners. GameSpot felt that the New Nintendo 3DS XL was `` the best handheld Nintendo 's ever made '', and recommended it to first - time 3DS owners. In regards to existing 3DS owners, the new systems were recommended to those showing interest in its exclusives or wanting a better overall experience. Giving the console an 8.8 out of 10, IGN concluded that `` the additional controls and increased processing power set the system up nicely for the future, and if you 're late to the 3DS party, you 've got a back catalogue that features not just some of the best handheld games in recent years, but some of the best games full stop. '' Sales As of December 31, 2016, the New Nintendo 3DS and New Nintendo 3DS XL have shipped 9.94 million units worldwide.
