Because their is no room internally. When they finally wanted to add it they would've had to change the whole design and make it wider and thicker then the 3DS already is.

Yeah, but once the inevitable 3DS remodel comes out it's almost definitely going to have the extra buttons and nub which destroys the whole purpose of making this half-hearted accessory. I'm not saying the accessory is bad, just that the timing of release is terrible.
'Destroys the whole purpose of the accessory'? The way I see it, purpose of the add-on is to add functionality so that folks like me who spent the dough won't have to go out and buy a whole new system when the twin stick 3DS hits. If Nintendo just came out and said "Look a new 3ds with 2 sticks!" Without the add%on the early adopter would've rioted! The point is there will not be a redesign with this built in. They wouldn't be changing 3DS boxes to say whether it can be used for said game or not. There is no way they fit the extra shoulder buttons into any portable that isn't the size of a Wii U Controller, which in turn is the size of an iPad. It won't happen, this will be an optional accessory for at least the next 3-4 years and likely until the 3DS2 or whatever comes, meaning not until next generation. Also, they would have to change boxes a 2nd time if they added the 2nd stick in a redesign to say "compadible with Expansion Kit 2.0!" because they still won't be able to add the two shoulder buttons. They won't do that. It's a c(lassic) controller for a handheld, and I for one have calmed down and I am looking forward to this exciting accessory.
