    Well someone should open it up and see if that's true or not...

    If it turns out there is enough space at the bottom right corner of the machine to fit a second slide pad then Nintendo is lying to us.

    That would not be good.

    Someone did and the space is taken up, unlike the dpad/face buttons/circle pad which have a space for themselves. 3DS wouldn't necessarily have to be bigger for a second analogue (though the CPP also has triggers), but they would have to redesign all the insides which takes time and money, Nintendo want to get the 3DS to be profitable so they keep the current layout.

    For the umpteenth time Nintendo isnt going to add another analogue. 4 games have the OPTION to use that thing, Nintendo isnt going to fraction the market for 4 games that dont even have to use the thing.
    Really people, stop lol.

    What are you talking about they have already fractioned the market with an addon people want the feature of (another analog) but many don't like the addons size. If they don't have to use the controls why would it hurt to have it built in when the older systems still have the option with the addon.

    How long has the addon been out? 4 games is low but once shooters start coming out more regularly that will increase fast.

    I still haven't played a game on the 3DS where I actually thought about having a secong stick. Kid Icarus was proably the closest, but that game controls great anyway.

    People stop forgeting its not just analog there is also triggers there is no way to add that or the system will be as thick as Triple cheesburger.
