Item Condition

This Nintendo 3DS XL Blue + Black comes as a standalone unit — no box or manual included, just the handheld itself ready to go. It has been fully tested by Coolection and was working as expected. Feel free to hit the "Request Additional Pictures" button on this page if you'd like a closer look at this exact unit before making your decision. Please refer to the provided photos for the exact details of the item's condition.

Item Description

Blue on the outside, black on the inside, and screens big enough to finally make the 3DS feel roomy. The Blue + Black 3DS XL was one of Nintendo's launch colors when the XL reached North America in August 2012, the same day New Super Mario Bros. 2 hit shelves, and it quickly became one of the most familiar faces of the 3DS era.

The XL's whole reason for existing is comfort. Both screens are about 90 percent larger than the original 3DS, the shell is rounder in the hands, and battery life improved over the first model. That makes a real difference in the games that defined the platform: exploring Hyrule's dungeons in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D, catching your way across Kalos in Pokémon X and Y, or sinking a weekend into Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, Bravely Default or Shin Megami Tensei IV.

It also plays Nintendo DS cartridges, which doubles the library. Dragon Quest IX, The World Ends with You, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney and the DS Pokémon generations all run on the same machine as the 3DS catalog. The only titles out of reach are the small group made exclusively for the later New 3DS models. Nintendo has closed the 3DS eShop to new purchases, but the physical cartridge library is vast and a pleasure to hunt down.

The Blue + Black colorway has a crisp, sporty look that has aged well, and it pairs nicely with a shelf of cartridges or a travel bag packed for a long trip. As a way into two generations of Nintendo handheld games, it is hard to beat the original XL.

Great Condition! Works perfectly 3d and all, with no issues. Came with everything described too, charger and stylus! I used it to catch an Absol, a very difficult feat.
