Yes, the 3DS are backwards compatible.

No, you cannot use Skype on the Nintendo Wii U

Yes, Final Fantasy III and IV for DS, both work fine on a 3DS.

From the 3DS' main menu, select "System Settings." Go to "Other Settings," and go to the fourth page, where you'll find a "System Update" option. Select this option to do a system update, if there is one available.

At the moment the 3ds internet system update hasn't been released but sometime in late may it will come out.

EDIT

3DS browser can not view YouTube, so no. If you want to view in 3D go on YouTube videos that say 3D and either use red/blue glasses or a 3DTV.

The release date is June 14th for the game and 3ds but if you want to download it from the Nintendo E Shop it comes out on the 9th of June

To add funds to your Nintendo eShop account, you must either have a prepaid Nintendo eShop card or a valid credit card. After launching the eShop, swipe to the right or tap the menu button to find the "Add funds" button.

Alternatively, if you're looking to buy a specific game, do not have enough in your eShop account, and are paying by credit card, you can browse to the game you want to buy, then tap "Tap here to purchase." When the eShop tells you that you do not have enough to buy it, choose to add funds to your account, select "credit card", then select "needed" to add exactly as much as you need to buy that game.

Remember that your eShop account is tied to your 3DS and cannot be used on another system.

Of course.

The 3DS XL is just bigger.

It can still play normal DS and 3DS games.

Firstly, you will need internet connection and your region settings must be in a location that has the Nintendo eShop available. Then, select the Nintendo eShop icon on the home screen. Enter your Nintendo Network ID and password to have access to the Nintendo eShop.

Yes, you can. The Nintendo 3DS XL is the same thing as the original 3DS except it has a 90% larger screen and better 3D and such. They are both compatible for the DS Pokemon games. I trade Pokemon all the time using both my 3DS and my DS Lite. I don't have a 3DS XL, but yes it will work on the XL since it is a DS system.

Of course you can.

You will need to go to the Nintendo eShop and download the YouTube app with no cost. Then, when it finishes downloading, you will be able to search for any YouTube video.

Minecraft is not yet out on 3DS.

You may only get Minecraft for PC, Xbox 360 and Smart Phones

Yes, the six AR cards do come with the Nintendo 3ds

Yes, dsi games works on the 3DS also DS games work on the 3DS.

No. The DS is an 802.11b wireless device that does not support WPA security protocols. The DS can only connect to wireless networks that use WEP encryption.

Additionally, although the DSi and 3DS are 802.11g devices that support WPA, they are restricted to WEP/open networks only when playing DS games, with the exclusion of certain titles (such as Pokemon Black/White) due to the limitations of DS.

You must configure your 3DS to connect to your wireless home network under system settings. If you do not have a wireless router in your home it will also work with the Nintendo Wireless USB Adapter.

Inside of the controller is a lithium-ion battery that is charged via the USB port on the front of the controller.

Stardust is quite hard to get in nintendogs + cats

your dog will only bring you it when they are happy with you

you can use it at Mr.Recycle's shop to exchange it for rare items

once you have more trainer points he will begin to want stardust for things

that is your chance to exchange the stardust you found for the item you want he has on sale for it

It is very pretty and valuable.

Yes, the Nintendo 3DS (as well as the 3DS XL and 2dS) has its own 3DS games that will not work for the Nintendo DS, Nintendo DS Lite, Nintendo DSi, and Nintendo DSi XL.

The Nintendo 3DS produces the illusion of 3D using autostereoscopy. You can imagine the screen as showing two images at once, and having another screen (the parallax barrier) over it to only allow each eye to see one screen. Basically, the screen works by forcing each eye into seeing a different image. The screen has two images; each image is a different perspective of the same image, as if you were actually looking at a real object in real life. In real life, your eyes both see a slightly different perspective of the same object(s), and that provides the 3D effect, as abjects closer to you will have a bigger difference in the perspective. The same goes with the 3DS: it forces each eye into seeing a different perspective. and as a result, your eyes are tricked into seeing objects on the screen just as you see 3D objects in real life. It's all about making your left eye see the left side of the object, and your right eye seeing the right. That's what creates the illusion of depth.

If that's too confusing: it's magic. It's a magic screen.

Yes they can. Every single game fits. But action replay for nds.
