...and the most important an improved CPU. This last change is the biggest problem.
The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes has no female option for selecting character. To defend this decision, Hirmasa Shikata leaks a bit of the storyline.
What Zelda game stars a female protagonist other than Zelda's Adventure on Philip Cd-i??
There really aren't any - but being such a multi-playable game I would think they might have thought about it as an option. I mean, how hard is it to add character alterations for red, blue, and green?

They're all Link, duh. Same reason you can't play a female character in Four Swords.
Everybody Plays - "There she is. The New Nintendo 3DS "Ambassador Edition". With nothing in the way of an official announcement, Nintendo yesterday sent an email to an unconfirmed amount of Club Nintendo members accross Europe, offering them a chance to get their grubby mits on an exclusive New Nintendo 3DS bundle before anyone else. As one of the lucky few to receive the invitation email, I've been lucky enough to buy the new console.
Here's a very picture heavy look at what you get in the box"
After Japan, now also the US and Europe are getting the Skyward Sword theme for their Nintendo 3DS.
Saying the CPU being upgraded to handle more games is a bad thing, is as stupid as condemning the PS4 for splitting the PS3's userbase between those that want more power, and those that want to be able to keep playing their collection of games for free online while still getting new games.
PS3 owners upgraded in droves to PS4 simply BECAUSE the new unit was more powerful, because they knew they’d be getting bigger and better games than the PS3 could offer there eventually.
If Sony isn’t evil for that, then why the hell would Nintendo be considered evil for doing the exact same thing?
Either blame both or blame neither; anything less reeks of bias.
Every company eventually makes a more powerful unit, and it will naturally have bigger games only possible on it available.
At least Nintendo's systems will still allow you to play the most recent gen of games on it natively, and that's important for the people who want to upgrade because it forms a far smaller split.
To use that as a chance to condemn Nintendo just REEKS of a bias that shows there's some sort of anti-Nintendo bent in the gaming media of today.
We should be HAPPY that Nintendo has finally given us a more powerful hand-held, one that we expected at the beginning of the 3DS's life, rather than holding off on it for another 3-5 years.
Is this article serious? Does he not even know Nintendo handheld history?
The system is NOTHING but a good thing
