Is bigger really better? Nintendo would argue it is, as it's announced the 3DS XL, a supersized 3DS with screens 90% larger than its predecessor. You'll now get a 4.88-inch 3D screen, boosted from 3.53-inches on the original, and a 4.18-inch touchscreen, up from 3.02 inches. There's no second analogue stick, unfortunately, but it does offer an improved battery life and an increase of the bundled SD card from 2GB to 4GB.


Availability: Launches 28 July
