This system works great

My 12 year old son also enjoys this game a awesome array of games can be downloaded right to the system which makes it perfect for road trips so games aren't being lost in the van seats I recommend this game system for any aged kids its great love everything about it

AR Games (a program that uses both the camera and AR cards for some fun), Swap Note (a drawing program), Streetpass Mii Plaza (a very fun game center that uses the miis), Nintendo 3DS camera, Mii Maker (a program where you make little avatars.), Nintendo Eshop (a place were you can buy digital games and apps), Activity Log (This is actually a record that keeps tracks of the games, steps, and apps and whatever daily activity that one does), Nintendo video (This showcases small videos lasting for less than five minutes, though they change weeks later), System Settings (This is were controls, like the settings, calendar, clock, parental controls, and so forth a located), Nintendo 3DS sound (This is a music game, but I didn't experiment with it to see if I like it) to name a few

very good system and feels very good within the hands a must have for people looking to play 3ds games without breaking the bank

My 6 yr old son loves this system and he is able to play the 3ds games on it too!

I actually recommend this system over 3ds xl

I highly recommend the 2DS, it’s a great system well worth 130 dollars, and it’s usually on sale for an even better price

They also have a nice concave groove to them, making holding the system superbly comfortable

This is an outstanding portable system at a cheap price

And aside from the limited hardware and battery life; the system is substantially more comfortable to hold than the 3DS XL that my girlfriend has.

This system is worth the price it is reliable and has a vast library to keep you entertained

However, if you're the parent of a child who isn't old enough to use the 3DS' stereoscopic visual effect, a monetarily challenged gamer who wants to enjoy the incredible 3DS library, or someone who'd like a cheaper secondary 3DS-type system, then the 2DS is certainly a worthy investment

A lot of the reviews I've read focus on the fact that this system is great for kids

The number one advantage this system has over the 3DS is the ability to play both DS and 3DS games

Besides these two small gripes i think this is a damn good system especially considering the price.

The lack of a clamshell lid is a bit of a nuisance, but the system itself is sturdy and not as easy to damage as might be thought

I couldn't ask for a better game system for a kid.

But this is a great beginner system for children!

If you don't like 3D gaming this is hands down the best system, plus it's not a clam style system which makes it its own unique system from the past DS systems

nice system but no way to protect the screens

However, if you're the parent of a child who isn't old enough to use the 3DS' stereoscopic visual effect, a monetarily challenged gamer who wants to enjoy the incredible 3DS library, or someone who'd like a cheaper secondary 3DS-type system, then the 2DS is certainly a worthy investment

after playing with it the whole weekend i think it is a fantastic system

No, All in all this is a great system

The 3DS is a fantastic system, and its respectable library offers great experiences for almost anyone

The 2DS is a GREAT System

the 2DS is a fantastic game system.

Great system just what i was looking for great price

I would recommend any gamer or non gamer who is looking for some fun to buy this system it is amazing and pick up a copy of pokemon y or x there a great game for a great system

I'm 50 years old, and love this little system

A wonderful system at a wonderful price

I really recommend this system to anyone who wants a cheap, good system!

I waited a week and a half to get the system for it to die in 20 minutes

Large, blocky, and a waffle iron of portable systems, its cheap price combined with 3DS game selection makes it a worthy contender

I really recommend this system to anyone who wants a cheap, good system!

RECEIVED BROKEN GAME SYSTEM ,SCREEN DAMAGED

Now, the 3DS is fine as a system, but its screen is just as tiny as the DS's

Sound is a crucial factor to gaming, but doesn’t really make or break any system

Great system for the price

It's a good game system.

It's a good little system for playing around for whenever I need it

This is a great game system

It's an awesome system, but between the black line from the crack and the headaches the 3-d gives me, I realized I eventually wanted to buy my own

Coming in at $40 less than the Nintendo 3DS at retail, and $80 less than the larger 3DS XL, the 2DS is no less an impressive gaming system as long as you don't mind sacrificing the 3D effect in your games and photographs

Anyone wanting a portable gaming system has no reason not to turn to the 2DS

However, if you're the parent of a child who isn't old enough to use the 3DS' stereoscopic visual effect, a monetarily challenged gamer who wants to enjoy the incredible 3DS library, or someone who'd like a cheaper secondary 3DS-type system, then the 2DS is certainly a worthy investment

With the new price drop, I think everyone should consider it because it is a great system and the library of ds and 3ds

So, if 3d isn't important to you, this is a great system period.

If you don't like 3D gaming this is hands down the best system, plus it's not a clam style system which makes it its own unique system from the past DS systems

While I wouldn’t say I’m too picky, I do want a sturdy system with decent battery life, a bright screen, and that’s easy to hold for an extended period of time

It's a great system to buy if you don't feel like shelling out 200 dollars for a 3DS, which are no where near worth the asking price

The best hand-held game system ever!!!@

To sum up: the 2DS is an excellent gaming system that improves on what didn't work on the DS while keeping all of the features that worked

Great system

It's a great system, is more affordable, and is very durable, which has been proven when it was dropped twice and the only thing that happened was that the game cartridge popped out.

I have rather small hands, yet the system is very comfortable to hold, and I play it often

The lack of a clamshell lid is a bit of a nuisance, but the system itself is sturdy and not as easy to damage as might be thought

great system for those who cannot handle the 3d settings on the 3ds, but want to play the new 3ds games in 2d

The 2ds is a awesome system

the system's really good at, it's comfort

Now, the 3DS is fine as a system, but its screen is just as tiny as the DS's

Since I wanted a sturdy system, I was initially worried about the slate shape

Anyone wanting a portable gaming system has no reason not to turn to the 2DS

This system is great for kids and it’s cheap

However, I can gladly say that the system feels like much better quality than I expected

Great system for the price.

This system is just perfect for me

Plays all 3DS and DS games, lasts longer and in my opinion just a better overall more comfortable system for a cheaper price.

Great game system!

This is an incredibly comfortable system to hold, regardless of hand size, right out of the box.

Nonetheless, it was still pretty badass just to grab the wedge and pull out your system just like that, as opposed to sticking your entire hand in your pocket

Great system

Good system decent price still plays 3ds gamesAnd I can play d's games and surf the Web with ease

No idea why nintendo's portable systems are becoming bigger and less

This isn't the only backwards compatible system but when the 3DS is not backwards compatible

Very good system, I would recommend the 3DS, the port on this fails very easily..went through three of them so far.

A wonderful system, just as good as 3DS

The fact is this is a great system and it is a cheaper alternative to the 3DS and 3DS XL

I cant remember now but either way I got a sweet system with crystal clear screens, great battery life, tons of games to play, and wifi for netflix,

To sum up: the 2DS is an excellent gaming system that improves on what didn't work on the DS while keeping all of the features that worked

This is an incredibly comfortable system to hold, regardless of hand size, right out of the box.

Great Gaming System

Great handheld system for a low price

This system feels solid

Both are great systems in their own right, but I was looking for something cheaper with the capacity to play most of the 3DS library of games that I've known and loved since the system has been out

Updated system per online instructions, still constantly shut off and would never work

I must say, I Love this system

For any older children or adults I recommend you buy the 3DS XL, that system has all the features that this has and all the ones

This system is the best that Nintendo has made so far

I absolutely adore this system

I HIGHLY recommend this system to anyone.

Not only is this system cheap, but the SD card contains 4GB of memory compared to the 3DS only containing 2GB

I decided to upgrade to a XL after a few months of having my 2ds, but I'm going to keep both systems since I enjoyed my 2ds so much.

So, bottom line, if you want a cheap system and some money after to buy a few games, the Nintendo 2DS is your choice for gaming on the go.

But honestly for those of us looking to continue playing new renditions of classic Nintendo titles ( Pokemon X/Y, Super Mario 3d Land, Zelda

Excellent e conditions love it

When you include the compatibility with original DS games, as well as Nintendo’s impressive E-shop offerings, I suspect that almost anyone could find something to enjoy
