Yeah, the list of New 3DS exclusives is pretty short.
I am fairly sure that having a New 3DS does help with performance on some original 3DS games though.
The system will actually downclock when running titles that are not specifically flagged as N3DS enhanced. This can be overridden through softmodding though.
I'm guessing that Samus Returns is one of those flagged titles then. Because I was getting some chunky framerates in areas on my 2DS that ran smooth on my New 3DS XL.
