Great buy, provided future games suppport it.

Finally got my order in from Gamestop after about 2 months or so of back order. No doubt the future 3DS redux will be modeled with a second slider on the right side. That said, for $20 dollars, you can't really beat how this thing feels in your hand. I have large hands, and the 3DS has always felt somewhat small for me. The Circle Pad Pro makes holding the device that much more comfortable. Yes, the thing should have came with a second slider pad to begin with, but what's done is done. The 3DS fits incredibly snug in the CPP. There is no movement or josilation whatsoever, giving the addon a quality feel. It is also pretty light. I've played both Resident Evil: Revelations and MGS: Snake Eater with it and they are almost like new games, ESPECIALLY Snake Eater, which just has too many controls for a single stick. I'd be pretty upset if I were the developers of these two games, however. These games have been out for months now, and I'm just getting my CPP. It could have been a huge selling point for both the games and the device... makes you wonder how Nintendo botched the release of it that badly. Also, the fact that Kid Icarus has a control scheme to use the right buttons for rectile control, but doesn't have a control scheme for the circle pad pro to do the same thing (EVEN THOUGH IT SUPPORTS IT) is REALLY, REALLY, REALLY stupid.

It improves gameplay, but brings in bulk.

I have a extra battery that doubles the portable time of the 3ds but the circle pad pro leaves no room for me to use it. Also I have no access to styles and its bulky so I can't stuff the 3ds in my pocket as quickly on the go.

Finally Got it

Well normally i never write reviews for games or peripherals but I must say this is worth a purchase if you have the funds. One of the reasons I got this was really for ergonomic factor the 3ds I personally felt was too small for my hands but after getting this add on I must say my hands feel so much better not only that even kid icarus which my hand was always aching after so long of playing it never felt good but after trying it with this attachment I must say it removed that issue. Plus to me it makes using the dpad a lot easier because my thumb is big and I had to manipulate it in weird ways to use it since but now it is balanced better by added thickness of this attachment.
