    I had a buddy were i used to work way back in 2013, he bought me the crystal blue version for my birthday along with pokemon Y. It was the nicest thing anyone has done for me. I still own them.

    The 2ds is the only of the 3ds console family I've ever used. Idgaf what anyone calls it, I absolutely will always love the 2ds. Never had a need for 3d function, so the cheaper 2ds is much better

    This console man, I remember when everyone was ripping on it on reveal, I was very optimistic about it and got one about a year after it’s release, never got a 3ds since, the grip you get with this is far better than having to hold the small bottom of a 3ds, and this is still more portable than the switch

    The 2ds in my opinion is the best handheld console ever. It can play 3ds, Ds, Gba, Gbc, and Gb games if you mod it. And I feel it is the most comfortable to hold compared to the other 3ds models. Not to mention the buttons and d pad are incredibly nice to press. Anyways nice video, though I think you maybe got one of the uglier looking ones 😭

  • @RomanEmpireSPQR

    I just got one. After dropping nearly 300 for a modded SP. Played and beat all the gba Pokémon games. Even got an EZflash. I am moving on to DS games. And wow. The slab is the way to go. If you don’t already have a DS lite.

    The 2ds was the only DS of the 3ds line that I had when I was younger. I just recently got a 3ds this year to play games with the 3D feature and I definitely have been enjoying that, but the 2ds felt more comfy in hand

  • @fartoplata308
    @fartoplata308 Год назад +1

    My first 3DS was actually a refurbished 2DS from Nintendo, back when they had an Ebay page and everything had free shipping. Got the 2DS basically brand new for $50 and a sealed copy of Mario Galaxy 2 Nintendo Selects version for $20. Crazy. And bless Wario64, I got a New 2DS XL refurb from Nintendo cheap as well a year or two ago. If only I could time travel back to Toys R Us in 2017-18 when they still had tons of 3DS games on the shelf.

  • @stashmerkin9576
    @stashmerkin9576 Год назад +7

    Never had a 3ds, got a 2ds when it came out because I was already collecting for the Vita and the 2ds was a cheap entry (80 bucks with a game at the time).
    The 2ds is the only model of any ds line that does not have a plastic hinge that will eventually break. Also the factory sealed 2ds did indeed come with a charger.

  • @scoobydude1999
    @scoobydude1999 2 месяца назад

    I have owned every single console in the 3DS family except for the New 3DS and I always come back to the original 2DS. Comfortable, reliable, nice buttons with a good amount of travel to them. Matte plastic body that doesn't get greasy easily unlike literally every other model. No hinge to worry about and easy (and cheap!) to repair if anything goes wrong.
    The regular sized New 3DS does intrigue me due to the mid-sized screen and faceplates, but if the build quality is anything like the New 3DS XL, I will not be impressed. It's creaky and cheap and most that I have handled have hinge issues due to the hefty top screen. My current galaxy model is an exception, but the inner plastic is so cheap that the finish comes off even with careful play. You really have to baby the "New" models of the 3DS/2DS to keep them looking good unless you want to slap a skin on it.
    I settled on the crystal blue original 2DS as my main model with some screen protectors on it. Stylus location is optimal and I like the top loading cartridge slot and accessible SD card door. The opaque models have issues with light bleed from the indicator lights coming through the plastic of the shell, so I went with a transparent model. Whenever I am playing something I really need 3D for like Super Mario 3D land, I just switch over to my original 3DS. It goes in my pocket easily and is built with quality so I don't have to worry about the hinge breaking in half in my hip pocket.
