So, for all of you all mad because I didn’t really talk about ‘Bomb Monkey’ in my “review”, here’s some cool gameplay footage of it I took. I’m really bad at it and I’m sorry, but you can definitely get the gist and whether or not it’s your type of game. Also I apologize for the ads. I know they suck, but they help the site stay not-broken.

Nintendo has gone into detail as to what has changed between the original 3DS and the 3DS XL.

There have been some reports through initial hands-on that the 3D effect has improved. While that could be possible, it’s likely related to the larger screen size. Nintendo says that the screens are made of the same materials as the original 3DS.

Continuing on with the screen theme, IGN reports that the 3DS XL hasn’t been adjusted to accommodate the 90% display increase.

The 3DS XL’s sound speaker design has changed, but it isn’t related to improved technology. A Nintendo spokesperson said that “the speaker function of the XL is the same quality level as the 3DS’s.”

Aside from the Circle Pad, XL features input adjustments. The d-pad as well as the shoulder and face buttons are now “slightly bigger than the 3DS buttons.”

Later this year, Nintendo will release a new version of the Circle Pad Pro that is compatible with the 3DS XL. There’s no date yet, but it should be available in Japan before the end of 2012. I imagine that the accessory will hit store shelves in North America and Europe sometime within the next six months.

Nintendo is preparing a couple of different 3DS XL packages around the world.

Europe and Japan will be greeted with the system that lacks a charger. The situation is different in North America, however, as the accessory will be bundled in.

We don’t know the exact reasons behind the decision to leave out the charger in Europe/Japan, but Nintendo France CEO Stephane Bole has tried to justified the situation somewhat. Bole explained that the company wouldn’t doesn’t want to “penalize the millions of DS owners” who would be forced to pay for another charger.

That’s fine and dandy, but could similar thinking have an impact on the Wii U? Maybe Nintendo would decide against bundling in a Wiimote, even though it’ll be a standard control option for many games.

Addressing the possibility, Bole said (rough translation):

“There are 200 million Wiimotes in the world. This is something you must consider before deciding which devices will be sold with the console.”

Of course, Nintendo hasn’t made an official decision regarding a Wiimote pack in with Wii U. There’s no reason to panic yet, guys!
