    I wanted a 3ds XL but was looking for a limited edition console. I narrowed it down to this one or the blue pokemon x/y console. Overall I feel this is worth the extra money cuz I personally find the shiny yet matte gold finish to be more eye catching and sleek. And the game included is obviously a great deal and awesome edition to anyone's collection for the 3ds. Worth the extra $$$.

    This is falsely advertised as being both the console and the game together, when in reality it is just the game. When I had wrote about this to a representative, hoping to return it for a refund, they just said that amazon must have made a mistake with the posting. And yet, it is still up, saying the same thing.

    Purchased a 3DS XL special edition second hand. Condition was mostly as described, but upon starting up the DS there was no sound or volume from the DS speakers but sound worked with headphones only. I don’t believe this faulty detail was included in the description, so I give this purchase 4/5 stars. We can get the DS repaired so the speakers work but again, don’t believe that was included in the description.

    I really wanted this particular item for myself, but my brothers birthday was coming up. Both my brother and I love The Legend of Zelda, and it was the perfect gift for him. The gold design is both beautiful and subtle. My brother loved his gift and it's probably the best gift I've ever given anyone. My brother was amazed by the 'A Link Between Worlds' download, as well as the modern graphics revamp on the game itself (the art style resembles 'Wind Waker'). It really took him back. No LoZ collection is complete without this 3DS XL.

    Product was described as use however it seemed to be brand new.
    Came in excellent condition. The only weird thing was it appears I can't delete the previous users profile on the device. It's fine, I created my own anyway but the previous user is still on the device and I don't know how to remove their character. However this is no flaw with the seller just with the Nintendo OS

    Would buy again from this seller anytime

    I had been delaying buying a 3DS for a while, but the Limited Edition, and especially the game Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, made it worthwhile. Also bought a batch of other 3DS games: Rune Factory 4, Professor Layton, and Tales of the Abyss.
    The 3d effect is a bit nausea inducing if used for long periods, so I just turn that off most of the time.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Why did I wait so long to get one of these?
    Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2014

    I got a DS Lite yeeeeaaars ago, and loved it. But I have since grown more fond of traditional gaming consoles where I can connect them to my 55" LED HDTV. Being a pretty big Zelda fan, I finally decided to try out the newest line in the DS family where it came with the free Zelda game and awesome Triforce-themed shell.

    First of all, it's beautiful. I love how even the bottom of the DS has a glossy black Triforce design to mirror the gold one on the top. The paint seems very high quality and can withstand a lot more wear and tear without leaving visible scratches compared to most consumer electronics. I only wish the Zelda game included was the actual game cartridge instead of the download code (I will always prefer a hard copy of something where ownership rights are vastly better, but another topic for another day).

    I love the 3D effect, and use it more often than not, but I also like that they give you control over it so you can turn it down or off when necessary. You have to be looking directly at the screen from a perfect centered angle to get the 3D effect, so sometimes when you're playing somewhere that you don't have as much mobility or a good lighting environment (like outside in direct sunlight), games are better enjoyed with 3D off. Whenever possible though, I have it turned on max because it really is cool and adds to the immersion.

    Before buying it, I've played around with 3DS demo units in stores briefly, but never knew about cool features like StreetPass and SpotPass. Now, after having bought one, StreetPass is by far my favorite feature. It allows you to connect with other nearby 3DS consoles, and depending on the game, will reward you or present new challenges depending on your StreetPass activity. The included StreetPass Mii Plaza game is quite addictive once you get started. I have purchased a few games solely based on their integrated StreetPass integration because it is just that fun.

    I still prefer watching things on a huge screen in 1080p, but they pack a lot of fun into this small thing. The only real negatives I have for it are the low resolution (after being used to even my 5" phone screen being 1080p, the lower 3DS resolution is quite noticeable), and I wish the battery life was a little better. But I'm never too far from somewhere I can charge, so not a big deal.

    I am also completely sold on the XL version being a must. It doesn't even seem that big to me, honestly. So after becoming accustomed to the XL, I can't even imagine using the non-XL units with about 40% less screen area. Definitely get the XL. And definitely don't get the 2DS! No 3D, smaller screens, no flip screen (for better portability and screen protection), and it just plain looks ugly. The 3DS XL is the most fun gadget I've bought in a long time. I even was able to get my wife to enjoy it enough to get her one as well (the Disney-themed Mickey ears version). It's a lot of fun closing out the day with some Download Play-compatible (wireless multi-console multiplayer using only one cartridge) games like Mario Kart, Mario Party, and Star Fox. Super easy 5 stars here.

    Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2014

    This review may be a bit biased, because I was pretty sure I was going to love this before I got it. I did a bit of research on the 3DS (versus the 2DS) and decided that the 3D feature was worth it for me, even if I didn't use it frequently. I also got drawn into the special edition look, and the fact that the Zelda game came packaged with it.

    I can definintely say that it met my expectations. I love this thing. I play it far more often than a 30 year old woman probably should.

    The limited edition color and badging is lovely; the gold is slightly shiny, with the triforce subtly showing as more matte areas (but still definitely visible). The gold isn't gaudy at all. I was a bit concerned when I had read that the gold coloring is a paint or enamel and doesn't go all the way through, but even if that is true it hasn't flaked, chipped or come off at all. I take it nearly everywhere(the StreetPass and Mii feature is a bit addictive) and it hasn't shown any sign of wear. (Of course the carrying case helps).

    Battery life is pretty good, even with the 3D on. I didn't find the 3D bothered my eyes as long as I looked at it straight on, but if I'm tired I can't look at the 3D for too long.

    As far as the unit itself, I have no complaints (and I'm fussy). The 3D effect is very neat, and you can scale down how strong the effect is and turn it off if it bothers you. Battery life is good, and both screens (Speaking for the XL version) are well light and display graphics beautifully. The DS XL comes with several programs and features that are a lot of fun, especially the StreetPass oriented Miiverse. You could easily play for weeks without ever actually buying a game (if you use the Streetpass).

    If you know you want the 3DS and are deciding between this and a regular version, I would say it's going to depend on what's important to you. This version is more expensive, but it does include the Zelda game, which is worth at least $40. (Something to note is that the Zelda game comes as a download, and does not include a physical game cartridge. Some consider this a pro, others a con. I personally prefer having the game downloaded directly on, as I don't need to worry about swapping cartridges if I want to play, and I don't have any personal need to keep the cartridge. If the game gets deleted, as long as you have the code that comes with the unit, you should be able to redownload the game).

    The special gold and black coloring is very pretty, but also subdued. It doesn't scream "Zelda", which again may be good or bad depending on your preference. If you have a love for limited edition items, the Zelda franchise, and like the gold/black scheme, I'd say go for this special edition.If you're kind of lukewarm on the Zelda franchise, it may not be worth the extra $.

    5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best Video Game Purchases I've Made In Recent Years
    Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2014

    The Aesthetics/3DS In General: As someone who never gets limited editions of consoles, I was skeptical at first. Black only, if possible. The color design is great, and the off-center Triforce gives it a nice finishing touch. Other than that, it's a normal 3DS XL. There are some really amazing games for that platform out right now, so much so that it's my new favorite system. The 3D, while usually additive, can be a little taxing at times, but the sliding switch on the side allows for adjustments or turning it off altogether.

    The Game: As far as the included game (FYI, it also includes a download code for whatever the 3DS Pokemon game is), A Link Between Worlds is such a great game. It takes the bones of Link To The Past and spruces it up quite a bit. The new dynamic of merging into walls adds a whole new dimension to the game, one that becomes immediate second nature. The addition of the item shop also allows for a completely customized experience in the back half of the game, allowing you to play the dungeons in any order, depending on which items you purchase. Rupees now technically have story-line purpose! Most of the dungeons are completely re-imagined, with completely different puzzles that make use of the new game mechanics. Essentially, it feels like a brand new LTTP-style game. Great job, Nintendo.

    Overall Thoughts: Fortunately, I was able to get it before the price climbed too high (230, the same as 3DS XL plus the included game at full retail price). I would recommend that you buy this bundle only if the price is reasonable. While it looks nice, I wouldn't consider it worth any extra expense. Either way, I'm incredibly satisfied.

    Didn't come with a download code for the zelda game. Came incredibly scratched up as well. Kinda pissed I paid 400 for this just to come with a few games for 6 year olds (spongebob, finding nemo etc.) and no zelda. But it is what is. 😒
