I would get the new model. The folding design is so much nicer and will fit better in her purse if she takes it with her.

I got the 2DS to play some of the Mario RPG's, Mario & Luigi/Paper Mario even the considered bad ones are good and well worth playing imo. The one speaker sounds better than I thought it would it is pretty loud suprisingly, the feel of the system is really good . The biggest downside to me was not being able to play SNES games, no reason not to have it on the other systems except to try to add some extra value to the new systems.

People, OP has made up his mind. Please-disperse.gif
