Why are the buttons next to the top screen????
Thought it couldn't get worse...then I saw the back.
It doesn't. It'd be a wasted expenditure. Make it as cheap as possible, it'll still sell just as much.Needs a better screen.
I think it's kind of a dumb looking system. I wonder how it will sell. I'm not going to make any predictions as it comes out the same day as Pokemon.
The issue is the design.
Because of the compatibility to the 3DS Handhelds, there will be no 2DS only games.And since the unit doesn't have to close anymore is there any legitimate reason why the screens are still different sizes?
Can someone try explain why they would abandon the clamshell design, I can't wrap my head around it. Add a hing and that thing fits in your pocket no problem. Why
LOL. I think the people crying bloody murder are those that won't admit that video games and consoles, when you come down to it, are nothing more than expensive toys.
No one's bragging. You're taking sales talk personally as a slight against a console you're excited for.Why brag about a console that is not aimed at you?
Yeah, that's basically the idea. Capture the last bastion of families wary about 3D's effect on their children by removing the 3D. Make the system look more tactile and toy-like. Take a cat, put it in a shirt, BAM, it's Bubsy!Job done. It is a toy and Nintendo will market it as such.
Kids give not a single fuck if a device folds or not.
Young children are not supposed to play with 3D anyway.
This will sell a stupid amount.After the price drop. $99
What the fuck. 90% of the time I play my handhelds I don't use headphones, now it's not really going to be an option. Speakers too expensive?

I'll wait for the 2DS XL
Oh you know what that does actually look really comfy. It looks solid when held just not very good in promo shots.
It's just so hilariously un-portable. You can't just throw this in a bag without worrying about the unit getting damaged, maybe a clasp on cover would have been good?

This always heve been a legend. 3D was never vital to any gameplay.
I do'nt get that thing.. No 3d why not for the cost but why no foldable device like the ds ?? It's more practicable, better for kids so they don't kill the screens and especially it keeps the nds popular layout!
Cause i'll tell you a secret. ds could have been a way better console with one only better screen, no 3D (i like it but..), and a better ergonomic.
Now this.. i don't know..
What?
But I wanted a good redesign, not this monstrosity.
This sounds like a bad joke...
The original Gameboy wasn't very portable either but people still found a way to bring it everywhere.
If a kid wants to play these games bad enough they'll figure it out.
They finally solved the top screen scratching problem by adding literally inches of clearance!Can someone try explain why they would abandon the clamshell design, I can't wrap my head around it. Add a hinge and that thing fits in your pocket no problem. Why
Kids can break hinges by dropping the system. I hope this is built like a Gamecube (you could practically drop those off a building and they still worked and running GBAs though the washing machine, come back tank era Nintendo...).No clamshell is really stupid!!
Given the fact sheet says the XL does not and is in English we can only assume that is for Europe (I'm right in think NOA spared Americans the inconvenience). In which case, yes.Question: will this come with a charger here in the UK?
