Powerplus Extra Battery Life for 3DS

SCORE: 80

It took me some time to classify the Powerplus Extra Battery Life for 3DS. This unit charges up like a battery and then slides onto a Nintendo 3DS. A switch is turned on if you want to use the Powerplus Extra Battery Life for 3DS instead of the Nintendo 3DS battery. Otherwise it can just sit there. Since you are adding dimensions to the Nintendo 3DS you may not want to do that.

I see the Powerplus Extra Battery Life for 3DS as something to use on long trips when the charge on the Nintendo 3DS dies out. How much extra time is given? The box claims up to six hours. That may be stretching it a bit, but it seems to give a fair amount of time to continue playing the unit. The Powerplus Extra Battery Life for 3DS is handy to have on long flights, and car trips.

We noticed something interesting in our testing. Well a couple of different things, but the first one is the temperature factor. The main box looking portion of the Powerplus Extra Battery Life for 3DS (where the cords plug in) get warm. In fact they were a little too warm for my personal comfort. This is on the bottom of the machine so it will be on your lap, the floor or whatever is right below the Nintendo 3DS.

The feel of the Powerplus Extra Battery Life for 3DS is very slick and comfortable. I enjoyed holding the non-warm portions. This unit slides on and plugs into the Nintendo 3DS easily. In fact I actually enjoyed plugging it in. The price of the Powerplus Extra Battery Life for 3DS is very reasonable. There are other options and choices out there so the decision is in your hands.

The majority of Powerplus Extra Battery Life for 3DS is very non-intrusive. Most of the Powerplus Extra Battery Life for 3DS adds little to the size of the Nintendo 3DS. There is one exception and that is the boxy portion where the connections are made. This made my Nintendo 3DS no longer fit into my case. So my choice was to go and buy a larger case or to house the Powerplus Extra Battery Life for 3DS separately. You can guess which choice I made.

My mind is torn into two camps when it comes to how useful the Powerplus Extra Battery Life for 3DS is. It adds to the length of time we can use the Nintendo 3DS. This can be useful in some areas of life. The other side wonders if spending all that extra time playing a video game is really a good thing. Does it improve real world relationships? Does it make the world a better place? Does it help the poor, or feed the hungry.

Thus far the testing of the Powerplus Extra Battery Life for 3DS has shown it should last a long time. If there is any change in that we will update this review as soon as possible. I like how it can be slid on easily, or left off. It all depends on your choice.
