Based on disassembly of certain sysmodules for code added/changed with in the [[8.0.0-18]] update, it appears that the "New 3DS" has the following changes:

* They extended FCRAM from 128MB to 256MB.

* They added another ~~VRAM (?) of~~ 4MB.

* They added another memory-block with size 4MB.

The "New 3DS" ~~will use the exact same~~ system-titles as the original hardware~~(with a new~~ system ~~update at launch~~, ~~for old/new hw, as both use the same system~~-~~titles)~~.

See hardware specs [[Hardware|here]] also.

The "New 3DS" uses system-titles based on as the original hardware system-titles, see [[9.0.0-20|here]] and [[Title_list|here]].

The product code of the New 3DS is KTR, while the product code of the New 3DS XL is RED.
