Super Slim PS3 & 3DS XL - What To Expect

2012-07-15
hey guys this is Austin and today view the video going over a pair of new game consoles we're about to see so on one hand we have a new even slimmer ps3 and on the other hand we have a new even bigger 3ds Sony released a slim ps3 a couple years ago and it looks like they're now about to release an even smaller and slimmer version so this one's late thanks to Brazil who when they were going through all the regulatory information somehow I lose all of these pictures of the new unit it seems to have lost a slot loading blu-ray drive instead just like on the PlayStation 2 slim you want to be able to insert discs from the top taking a look around you can see it's a pretty major overhaul in my opinion it looks a little bit like a mix between the original fat ps3 and the newer slim version if you take a look at the model numbers that were late it looks like there will be three new versions of the ps3 for starters there's going to be a 16 gigabyte model there's also going to be a 250 gigabyte model and a 500 gigabyte model my best guess would be that the 16 gigabyte version will be going up against the 4 gigabyte Xbox and I'll probably be pretty cheap somewhere between 150 and 200 dollars and of course the 250 gig and 500 gig versions will be powered by hard drives and most like will be coming in somewhere between 250 and 300 dollars now this hasn't been officially confirmed by Sony yet however in my opinion it looks pretty legit so definitely keep an eye out for an announcement soon moving on Nintendo was also announced today and new 3ds XL as you probably guessed from the name this is an extra large version of the current 3ds the 3ds XL sports a four point nine inch top display which is nearly as big as the Vita screen now on top of that also has a 4.2 inch lower display all the features from the 3ds are coming right along to the 3ds XL so that means you're going to have three cameras a top 3d display as well as of course compatibility with all the 3ds and the DS games probably the biggest downside is the fact that there's still no second circle pad now of course you will be able to pick up a new Circle Pad Pro accessory so I've already reviewed it for the original 3ds however there will be a new version made for the larger 3ds XL and well that's all fine and great but it's a larger accessory it takes up a lot of room and to be honest there's no reason why a Nintendo could not have just integrated this onto the 3ds I mean it's bigger there's more room it's kind of disappointing beyond that the 3ds XL looks to be pretty solid he'll be going on sale in North America on August 19th for the price of $200 and for that you'll be able to pick up either a red or a blue version and it will come with a four gigabyte SD card I'm curious to know what do you guys think are you interested in the new super slim ps3 or how about the new super-large 3ds personally I'm going to be picking up both for review however I'm a little bit more excited for the 3ds as it looks like with a larger screen it can actually make the 3d a lot better on the other hand the ps3 looks nice as well but overall it looks more just like a new cheaper version than anything that's really all that spectacular but again definitely very curious to know what you guys think so definitely let me know in the comments below anyway guys if you enjoyed this video definitely be sure to leave it a thumbs up and if you're interested in more videos like this including reviews of both the ps3 and the 3ds XL be sure to subscribe
