Nintendo pleased with 3DS form factor, Reggie won’t talk 3DS Lite
The DS Lite was made available on the market roughly a year and a half after the original system launched. With the 3DS seeing release less than six months ago, one would think that it’s much too early to be thinking about a 3DS Lite. Nintendo of America Reggie Fils-Aime seems to think so as well.
Fils-Aime said in a recent interview:
“The form factor, we believe, it quite strong and quite positive. We have nothing else to add at this point in terms of other form factor changes or other color changes beyond the Flame Red that we’re announcing today.”
I can’t say I have too many complaints about the 3DS’ design at the moment. The only issue I have is the system’s battery life. I’d most likely consider purchasing a third-party peripheral over buying a 3DS Lite, though.
