According to Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata, there will not be a compact version of the 3DS, due to it already being packed with the smallest technology they have at the moment. http://www.geek.com/articles/games/there-wont-be-a-3ds-lite-system-is-fully-packed-from-the-start-20110131/Nyko released a battery that improves playtime of the 3DS, at the expense of being bulkier. http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/2011/03/heavy-black-rubber-testing-nykos-third-party-3ds-battery.ars
He says there will not be a revision coming "short-term". He doesn't mean it will never come. As better technologies come out they will be able to make a new version with better battery life.
After all, the 3DS has a 1300mAh battery. You can already mod it yourself to get a 2000mAh battery.
Yeah, should have added that.
I think I'll be happy with the current 3DS at its current price, though.

Precisely. That's why I'm getting one as soon as the price falls in August.

Got Megane?
This news makes me consider picking it up now, but I am still hesitant to do so.

The 3DS doesn't have any good games except OoT yet, so being hesitant is normal. In a year you won't think that way.

I heard executives and the Pres are taking big pay cuts for this.
At least this well help them bring up sales during the holiday season here in the states.(and a whole bunch of games)
This would probably also help it get some much needed 3rd party support since more people will have one. Personally with the new price tag, I'll be getting mine during/after the holiday season.
I really do hope portable gaming isn't destroyed by smartphones.

I know Nintendo has been trying really hard, but their third party support has always been terrible. Things haven't changed. They released the 3DS without even a Mario game precisely because they wanted third party developers to not fear of Nintendo titles taking all the spotlight. Look how well that worked out them. If you buy a 3DS or a Wii U, you're getting it to play Nintendo titles. If you want to play titles for third party developers, you should just get the Vita and a PS3.

I do admit using my iPhone to play games more than my DS. That doesn't mean I'm not getting a 3DS though.

Meh, still saving up for Viva la Vita. 3DS doesn't have any games I'm interested in yet.

LIES! LIES! Nintendo would never do something like that so soon! It's all LIES!
...
Nah I'm just joking but, I was going to wait until it dropped to that price in about 2 years or so because I'm not spending over $200 on ANY system never have and never will. This Price Drop should bring in more consumers. But we will see.

I'm not alone either - I have yet read a single serious review that says the 3D is bad by any means. =/
