Even though there was speculation that Nintendo would be introducing a new 3DS at E3 2012, it never happened. A rumor from Nikkei suggested a model with a larger top screen would be unveiled.
Despite the fact that no such announcement was made, Nintendo does seem to have some interest in a larger 3DS screen.
Hideki Konno, who played a large role in the development of 3DS, told Joystiq that he greatly appreciates the DS XL’s larger screen as it makes things easier to see.
That’s not a confirmation of a 3DS XL, but Konno’s response to the possibility is rather interesting. Maybe we’ll see a 3DS XL some day…
