Anyone else have problems with the location of the New 3DS power button? It's located at the bottom of the system. If I'm laying down, my pinkies support the system by laying across the bottom, right where the power button is. Twice in the past week I've accidentally turned the system off b/c my pinky hit the power button.

  • Today was the worst. Tied on the 18th, I sank a 40 ft putt for birdie for at least part of the win. In my excitement, my pinky hit the power button shutting the system down. Lost everything. So frustrating!

  • I would've thought that Nintendo had learned from past mistakes when it came to power button placement. I always rest my 3DS on my pinkies when I'm playing, so this is a real potential dealbreaker for me with the New 3DS.

  • That's how I tend to hold mine, too. It also seems like it would be too easy to hit while it's closed up in your pocket or something. I still haven't gotten the 'new' one myself, though. There doesn't seem to be anything it offers that I don't already have on my XL .

  • I have no problem accidentally turning off my New 3DS. But I preferred the placement on the regular 3DSXL. Much easier to turn off. Also, I'm really disappointed in the placement of the stylus. I post on miiverse A LOT. So I'm constantly pulling it out and putting it back in. I know it will eventually fall out :(

  • I've never been a fan of the stylus placement on any Nintendo system. It's discriminatory against lefties.
