Hyrule Warriors Legends
I was at my local Gamestop recently and I noticed that Hyrule Warriors Legends has already been released for the 3DS. Since I absolutely love Hyrule Warriors on the Wii U, I thought about picking up this game. However, the associate gave me a warning that I thought I'd share. She said people who have bought the game have stated issues with playing it on their older 3DS models. The game is more suited for the "New 3DS." While I found that to be disappointing, it always wasn't incredibly unexpected.
When I found out that Terraria was coming to the 3DS, I decided to look into it. I read some things on the web and I watched some videos about it. One of the main points I...

This __REALLY__ stinks for 3DS owners as if a game lists 3DS as supported, you expect it to work pretty well.
With that, I might get a new 3DS this year. There are a couple modern Nintendo handheld games I want to get and it seems like a good time. The New 3DS or 2DS but that wouldn't play some games well according to what you've said here.
Yeah well, because of this, and what I read about Terraria, I'm very tempted to get a "New 3DSXL", maybe even this year. There's a few things about it, though. They cost about $200 and I think I'd like to get two of them, one for me and one for Vinny. Another thing is that I don't play it that often. Yeah, when Pokemon Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby came out, I played one of them and so did Vinny. When I got my 3DSXL, I got the Zelda one that came with a download code for A Link Between Worlds, which I played when I got it. I also played and got Luigi's Mansion for the 3DS, which I finished. I also got Animal Crossing, which I haven't played that much. I've played a few different versions of Animal Crossing, though. So, I mean, I can upgrade for this game, but other than that, I'm not sure what else I'd want it for. However, there are new Pokemon games coming out at the end of the year, which I assume now will likely be better on the New 3DS.
This is an odd choice on their part, to release an upgraded handheld with higher specs that games can target, basically making a poor experience for the old version.
It seems better for everyone to call it something else and have backwards compatibility.

Nintendo has kept the DS moniker for sometime and like you i'd have expected something different. Maybe with the NX we will see that? So many DS revisions!
Even the review from Game Informer addresses the performance issue on the game and states that it does work much better on the "New 3DS."
