I really don’t get why some people hate this system. I’ve had mine for a while, but the battery life on mine is great (don’t know about everyone Else’s though). On my 3DS, I play for 6-8 hours; I don’t know if my uncle hooked me up with a better battery :)
I love the Nintendo 3DS, I got the Zelda bundle deal, and the 3DS is worth every penny, I love it, and the eShop is very commendible, if you dont have a 3DS I strongly suggest that you get one, it not just for kids, its for lovers of games of all ages. 3DS for LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love my 3DS. the 3D is magical and makes it one of a kind. i highly recommend this awesome nintendo product. long live NINTENDO!!!!!
