The New Nintendo 3DS is an upgraded model of the Nintendo 3DS, and the fourth system to be released in the Nintendo 3DS family, released in 2014 and 2015. In Europe, the system was originally released with an "Ambassador's Edition" model before the standard release. While it has the same features as the original model, the New Nintendo 3DS has several improvements, such as an improved stereoscopic 3D effect and added buttons.

Features

While the Nintendo 3DS operating system and software remain unchanged, the New Nintendo 3DS makes several changes and improvements to the older models' hardware, as well as adding new features. Among the most notable of these are the additional buttons: the New Nintendo 3DS features a built-in C-stick and added shoulder buttons, similar to the Circle Pad Pro. The C-stick, a smaller circle pad, is placed above the ABXY buttons, while the ZL and ZR buttons are placed beside the normal L and R buttons, similar to the original Classic Controller

Accessories

Because of the added features and different design of the Nintendo 3DS, some accessories and peripherals for earlier Nintendo 3DS family systems are incompatible with this model.

amiibo

amiibo are a line of near-field communication based toys released by Nintendo to add content into games. As the system has a built-in NFC receiver, the user only needs to tap the figure or card onto the Touch Screen to use amiibo in compatible software.

New Nintendo 3DS Charging Cradle

The New Nintendo 3DS Charging Cradle is an accessory that allows the player to charge the system without needing a cable. Unlike other iterations of the charging cradle, this version of the device is a stand that the system sits in vertically with the back end facing down, and connects to a Nintendo DSi and Nintendo 3DS AC Adapter through a port on the bottom of the accessory, which the cable is inserted into.
