I was looking to upgrade from my DS Lite, which has lasted me 6 years and still works perfectly fine, and my GBA, which has lasted 14 years. I had looked at getting a PSP, but decided to go for a Nintendo handheld device, as I have had good experiences with them and the games for them. So I started looking at a 3DS, and stumbled across the 2DS. At first, I thought it was weird, but after looking at some reviews, I was super excited to get one. Here are my reasons for getting this instead of a 3DS -Price- for a new system, that does everything a 3DS does but the 3D feature, it was a great bargain! I missed the $80 deal, but still got a new one for around $100. -Design- Though it does look a little silly, the design feels great in my hands, as other customers had said in the reviews I read. My hands would cramp on my other systems, but I do not have much of a problem holding this one for a long time. Also, it is very durable, and it doesn't have the hinges that occasionally snap on it's cousin devices. I did buy a few screen protectors. So if you are looking to buy a 3DS, I would recommend looking into a 2DS. I am very satisfied with mine. Review: Is the 3D quality of a 3DS worth an additional 50-30 dollars? - I got this 2DS about three months ago and everything is in shape. ---- In comparison to the DSi ---- -The battery charger is identical to the one I got with my DSi - All games and DSiWare can be used and transferred to the 2DS, but the data will be deleted and the transfer cannot be undone - What the DSi has that the 2DS doesn't is Flipnotes Hatena, which is a application that allows user to make, well, flipnotes. A application that I've found to replace it is Inchworms Animation, which is $5 and is sold at the DSiWare, which can be accessed through the 2DS - There IS a free game that comes with the 2DS, which is Face Raiders. I was pleasantly surprised at how fun it is. - A feature that is also gone is the convenient screen brightness levels. Unlike the DSi, whose screen brightness can be changed by holding the power button and push up/down on the volume, you need to go to the home screen and click to the top right for options. Doing so won't close a 3DS/2DS game, but it will for a DS game - Obviously, you can't fold the 2DS. This means more dust on the screen. Get a screen protector! - A major problem with the DSi was the L and R buttons, which broke because of dust buildup ( blowing into it will momentarily fix the problem, but will end up ruining the device eventually from the moisture that comes when you blow). The 2DS' L and R buttons seem sturdier. - Folders can be created on the home screen, no big deal - The Circle-Pad is comfortable and easy to use. The arrow buttons, not so much, but it's still possible to use. You can use the Circle-Pad as a replacement for them for DS games. - BIGGER TOP SCREEN: awesome. It won't stretch normal DS games, which I found surprising since there is a DSiXL. Is there an option for this? - The stylus is different, not as thin and easier to grip - !!Awesomer store!! There are free demos and full-on games a-plenty at the eShop, with tons of older games like Super Mario Bros, or galaga. I'm a bit disappointed that EarthBound isn't for sale though. - I've also gotten Kid Icarous: Of Myths and Monsters free from Nintendo Club (the 2DS is 100 coins, older games like Mario 3D Land is 10, and newer ones 20-40. You need 150-200 coins to get a 100% free game), which anyone can get after signing up, filling out a survey per game, and getting a code which you use through the eShop on your 2DS/3DS to get the specific game. -SteatPass: A fun little feature, and nothing more. Basically, bring this on a car drive or whatever and later see if you've met any other miis ---- comparison to the 3DS ---- I don't have a 3DS, but I have tried them every now and then. The grip around the 2DS is overall easier because there is more room for your palm. Also, it can be difficult to play without the 3D at times. Mario 3D Land, for an example. A 3D effect that the 3DS offers helps see the distance from one block to another. I've still managed to get along just fine, however.If you can get all the stars in Mario 64, Mario 3D Land is quite the piece of cake. Lastly, I believe turning on the 3D on a 3DS takes up more batteries, while I'm not certain. If you're anything like me, than you hate 3D in anything. Sure, it's fun initially, but tiresome after a while. So buying a 3DS worth the additional 50-30 bucks? In my opinion, nope. ## Features - The new Nintendo 2DS system gives anyone looking for their first portable gaming device the chance to experience the full library of Nintendo's biggest titles. Nintendo 2DS plays a huge library of over 2100 Nintendo DS and Nintendo 3DS, and Nintendo eShop games in 2D. Designed for your family the new Nintendo 2DS system gives you all the features of the Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo 3DS XL, minus 3D viewing.

You can then plug the SD card into your computer and get the 2D image that you want. If you take a 3D photo a 2D copy will be made. The 2D file is a JPG and the 3D file is an MPO. **Q: Does anyone know the screen dimensions of the 3ds and the 2ds? thanks** A: Same screen size as the 3ds. Not the 3ds xl.With a simple look on google... you can find that the 2ds and 3ds are 400×240... However the 3ds is 800×240 because of the 3d ability ( displays two 400×240 screens at once and projects them into your eyes via light). **Q: can you play regular ds games?** A: Hola si puedes jugar los juegos q juegas en tu ds y los de 3ds también solo q no lo ves en 3d **Q: Does it come with any games?** A: It does not come with any games, however, Nintendo does have a few free-to-play titles on the eShop that are definitely worth checking out. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great price and quality! *by A***R on January 26, 2017* This is a great product!

It also arrived like 4-5 days quicker than anticipated. Absolutely recommend. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/182233-nintendo-2ds-electric-blue-nintendo-wii-gamecube](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/182233-nintendo-2ds-electric-blue-nintendo-wii-gamecube) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-28*
