The Nintendo 3DS XL (Japanese: ニンテンドー3DS LL Nintendo 3DS LL) is a Nintendo 3DS model that was announced in a Nintendo Direct on June 21, 2012.

Both screens of the Nintendo 3DS XL are approximately ninety percent larger than the screens of the Nintendo 3DS. The console has an improved battery life, lasting from 3.5 to 6.5 hours. The Nintendo 3DS XL's stylus slot has moved from the back to the right side of the console. The AC adapter is not packaged with the console in Europe and Japan. The console is bundled with a 4GB SD card.

The Circle Pad Pro XL, a special version of the Circle Pad Pro for the Nintendo 3DS XL, was released, since the original Circle Pad Pro was not compatible with it due to the system's size.

In Japan, production of some colors of Nintendo 3DS XL has already ceased, with all other colors to be discontinued in the near future.
