The new set is completely compatible with the existing NXT-verion. All existing compartments like sensors and motors can thus still be used. The control system does not significantly differ from the NXT-robot.
EV3 uses the exact same cables as the NXT. The EV3 can program the NXT, too, so that both systems can be used simultaneously. Furthermore, no investments will be lost and the transition from one system to the other will go smoothly.
