I used this console back in days and played very much but my favorite is mario and The nintendo 3ds xl is a very innovative turn in the gaming world. Before I bought it I always had the notion that nintendo was only good for rpg platform but I was mistaken. The past few weeks I have beem glued playing fifa 113. Since this is my first in the ds mily I cannot tell how is the backward compatiblity of the 3ds. Altough an awsome experience along with the ar games and pedometer.
