Oh ok. I must have missed the better processor.
And the 2 extra shoulder buttons was a derp. Forgot about that.

My question is, (which I have not done the research on yet), is the older games that used the circle pad, compatible with thie new 3DS?

Example: RE Revelations. (One of my favs.)
Arseen:
No idea, but hopefully.
Otherwise they need to make 2 more Circle Pad Pro models... ;)

Anyway, I'm having one sent over as soon as they launch in JP.  Plan on reverse engineering the faceplates and having our own made  8)

That means that New 3DS games will not play in old 3DS sistem but old 3DS and DS games will play in new 3DS?

That's what i understood from what you said  :P

Yup, that's exactly what I meant.  I believe the new Monster Hunter game is the first which will NOT be compatible with the "old" 3DS systems.

Monster Hunter 4 is compatible with any model 3DS.
The game has already released in Japan (a year ago) for the standard 3DS so it doesn't need the extra bump in ram. I have also already played the demo version of this, on a standard 3DS XL, while i was at conference.

Xenoblade Chronicles is exclusive to "New 3DS"
This is the only game i have heard of that will require the "new 3DS" thus far.
