Um... yeah. So apperentally this is going to be a thing. Does anyone really see any reason for this thing to exist when a 2D DS has been around in some way since late 2004?

And hardware-wise... it's just a 3DS without the 3D and can't fold onto itself.

It's an alternative for parents of smaller children who are concerned about paying $170 for something their children can break easier, and the price difference is EXACTLY the cost of the new Pokemon game coming out the same day.

Nintendo is hedging their bets to ensure they sell as many copies of the game and systems as possible. It's pretty smart.

The fact that it doesn't fold and it's actually bigger than the 3DS makes me cringe for all those scratched screens...

It's both pretty smart and ridiculously dumb.

So that's better than usual with Nintendo re-re-releases of consoles.

The 3D has (for me) never been the most important part of the 3DS. Rather, the increased power and graphical capabilities are, which the 2DS has.

The lack of fold-up or easy sleep mode are dealbreakers, though.

another potential deal breaker is if there isn't an XL version

The lack of fold-up isn't much of a dealbreaker to me as long as I get one with a protective case/bag. WHY they chose to omit it is a complete mistery though.

Now, the lack of a XL is a problem. I might get this for my birthday instead of x-mas.
