The 2DS can also play DS games, so the catalog is perfect especially if the parents have some DS games laying around. The 2DS with over 8 years worth of 3DS games, Virtual Console, DSiware and DS games is a no brainer if you want to get a child started on gaming on the cheap. 79 dollars vs 200 dollars is still a major difference.

incoming Nintendo Life commentators who take this seriously and don't realize it's a joke

Okay Nintendo Life, since you are so OBSESSED with killing the 3ds line, constant article after article, I am going to buy a 2DS XL, thanks Nintendo Life! you have constantly brought it up and reminded me over that the 3DS has a vast library of games that I missed out on some games. Thanks

RomUniverse is seriously asking for donations because of the lawsuit. Yes lets donate to a website that directly steals current gen games. No thanks

What is wrong with everybody? Jesus Nintendo Life comment section is always such a debbie downer, this is a lighthearted joke, not a damn life lesson, seriously this is a little laugh, also PS none of you guys were perfect when you were children/teens, deal with it.

Its HBO, do I need to say more?

Damn hearing the names George Harrison and Satoru Iwata makes me sad, and isnt that the old Nintendo office too? Nostalgia overload

Its getting so oldd seeing two “3dS iS dYiNg” articles, when the Switch mini budget 200 dollars or under SKU comes around, the 3DS will be fast down the road, until then its on Nintendo’s 2nd pillar since Nintendo is like the only player left in the handheld market after Vita walked out, I see the 3DS as the ipod touch for apple that stuck around for a bit since it was the only budget option left (until iphone SE)

What I noticed in recent years is that Japan moves on from consoles faster, Japan dropped the 3DS XL so fast so no shock. (They didnt even release the 2DS in Japan until waaayy later, kinda proving the point) While I agree that the 3DS is slowly dying, its price point is the only reason why Nintendo is still supporting it, the 2DS is 79 bucks while the Switch is 300 bucks, I think they will drop 3DS when a mini model comes out and or when the switch starts hovering around late 100’s in dollars, I still think that it would be stupid to kill off the cheaper model in a market where Nintendo is the only major player left (handheld).

My Nintendo is trash,

@mikegamer I was talking about Nintendo’s own emulator to use for VC, also Nintendo has had some issues with emulation in the past, for example VC games for Wii U are really dark etc

@TheGameSquid look I do not support region locking AT ALL, that does not excuse illegally downloading games, the other user came at me with Region locking even though I never said a word about it before

@TheGameSquid the 3ds is on its final years, Nintendo’s new current console supports Region Free, I honestly don’t expect hardware from 2011 to all of a sudden in its last phase to support region free

@Timsworld well they have no region locking now, everyone is now in the future enjoying region free games while you are still in here complaining about it,

@Nintendoforlife Im kinda new here in the community (long time reader) so I dont know every troll lol,

@Don VC is coming next year with the online service, would you rather have a buggy emulator that does not work, if we had buggy VC people would be calling for homebrew, also we had VC very early in the Wii’s lifespan and the Wii still got homebrewed early

@WhistleFish are you really saying yay to piracy? What if you made something you worked hard for and someone just took it for free?

The timeline is already confusing and down the line (no pun intended lol) it will become more of a mess.

sips tea

im waiting for the Switch haters

No but seriously, can't wait to get my switch!! been trying to get it since it was the NX.
