3DS Circle Pad Pro: IGN Unboxing

The Nintendo 3DS control peripheral arrived in Japan, but we've gotten our hands on one. IGN's executive editor of all things Nintendo, Rich George, shows you how this odd looking gadget fits on your 3DS and talks about how the button layout feels in this unboxing video.

@gamez101 Well it's like 20 bucks so...

[alex14469]

what the fuck is this?? i think nintendo should have thought of this before releasing the system

[fire2box]

This device should be free, and should of never existed in the first place. Much like WM+

@alex14469 my thoughts exactly, I would much rather have the analog stick and the A, B, X, and Y buttons on the same vertical line, maybe Nintendo might release a another Circle Pad Pro with that in mind, I think that's what they had in mind originally, and if I bought it, a 3DS at launch, I wouldn't mind waiting a few extra weeks for Nintendo to have put a second analog stick on the system, it's nice to see the rise of IR again in game.

@SCAREDBANANA I doubt that a second 3DS will have the second circle pad due to the lack of games supporting it.

[SCAREDBANANA]

I think I´m going to wait until they release the next 3ds

@AcidBrandon I also have a Zelda armor case and looks like it won't fit in the Circle Pad Pro :(

you can also get this from the nintendo online store ! i m going to have to get mine through there

[DoctorJ1337]

For resident evil u can set the abxy buttons to be a second d-pad. If they do that for all the games then I'm not buying this thing.

@emospiderman44 Well what would you expect from something like that? It is something that is hard to make something like this smaller than the actual game console. After all there are not many places to plug anything in without making the thing as lopsided as it will be.
