Nintendo has unveiled a new larger version of its handheld console, the 3DS XL.
The 3DS XL will feature a 4.88 inch screen – 90 per cent larger than on the current 3DS.
The new variation of the portable console will feature five to eight hours worth of battery life, compared to three to 6.5 hours for the original handheld.
The system will also come with a 4GB SD card, twice as much as the standard storage space included with the 3DS.
The redesigned console will however no longer include an AC adapter or charging cradle, with Nintendo to sell the accessory separately.
The 3DS XL will be released in Europe on July 28th.
