Well it certainly won't fit in anyone's pocket. That's kind of a deal breaker for me since I do take mine with me for Streetpassing. I think they said this was aimed at the 6 and under age group and I believe this is perfect for them.

I was kind of hoping for a redesign to be announced soon, but I guess I'll just have to keep on waiting.
The carrying case they showed in the introductory video goes very well with a back pack of some sort! But yeah, pocket transportation of the unit is totally out of the question.

It's heavily rumored/implied that the big Miiverse/NNID update is coming tonight after maintenance. It's pretty much been confirmed since NIntendo has since made these pages live:

http://www.nintendo.com/3ds/nintendo-network-id

and

http://www.nintendo.com/3ds/built-in-software/miiverse

Can't wait! The miiverse won't have exactly the same features but its cool to see things like screenshots be in there.

EDIT: The update is now live!

DOUBLE EDIT: Streetpass has its own separate update as well apparently.

I couldn't connect for a while, but I got the updates. I really like Miiverse in Wii U so I'll probably get a lot of use out of this.

Transparent 2DS'!

I think this the first time we've gotten transparent handhelds since the original GBA...

I had the transparent Gameboy Pocket back in the day. I loved it. If I were in a position to randomly collect consoles I'd probably pick one up for the heck of it.

The 3DS has been updated, and themes are out! So far it's just Mario and misc. patterns, with five free basic color themes. We have Yoshi and the black and gold stars themes on our 3DS so far.

I downloaded the Zelda theme, and it's pretty cool. It plays Zelda music and the folders are treasure chests.

I'm kind of interested in that Zelda theme, but I think I'll wait to see what else comes next.

If you're curious about the themes available in Japan

EDIT: This video shows off all the launch themes.

EDIT 2: The eShop also got updated. The game pages are better organized now. I wish Nintendo would inform us of these things...

The Nintendo DS is 10 years old...time sure flies. I remember when it was first announced and I was skeptical about the dual screens. :p That could never work! How would you look at two screens at the same time?!
