Abstract: Just like that, Nintendo announced the Nintendo 2DS, a 2D version of its 3D hand-held console that it launched in March 2011. Pocket-lint played with the new console ahead of the official release in the UK on 12 October to see what all the fuss is about...
Comfortable in the hands, Robust design, Affordable DS option
Won't fit in your pocket, 3D camera feels pointless, We miss the hinge
If you're a gamer who hasn't jumped into the DS game yet, the 2DS is not the place you'll want to start. But if you're buying for someone younger who's been pestering you for the new Luigi's Mansion, the 2DS could be exactly what you need.Not only can it...
The Nintendo 2DS is the most affordable portable system for a younger gamer or for those not interested in 3D visuals. It packs in a 4GB SD card and gives players access to the 3DS' impressive library of cartridge-based and downloadable games. Best of all
The 2DS feels cheap and has only one speaker, which sounds a little lacking. Though it's designed for children, there are a few vulnerable spots on the 2DS, and it might not survive a bad fall. By today's standards, its screens feel too small
With a new low price, the 2DS offers a huge array of compelling games and makes for a great entry-level system for uninitiated first-time gamers...

Abstract: Video games are welcome at the table of popular art, alongside movies, music, and television. Home consoles get a lot of attention, but portable gaming has done the heavy lifting when it comes to expanding the reach and acceptance of the medium.The road t...
Look, I get it: it's no coincidence Nintendo launched the 2DS the same day as Pokémon X & Y. And yes, Joey might be right in that some people will use it as a Pokemon machine. But there were so many nice comforts in the 2DS: often, I felt like I was holdi...

Inexpensive. Can do everything the 3DS does, except display 3D images. Hinge-free design is more friendly for small hands.
A bit clunky compared with either version of the 3DS or the Sony PlayStation Vita
Nintendo's $130 2DS might not be your ideal do-it-all gaming handheld, but if you have a young kid or a tight budget, it's your best choice....

Abstract: In a move that left many gamers scratching their heads, Nintendo released the 2DS , a portable gaming system that removes the glasses-free 3D screen and clamshell design for which the console is known. It's a big change, as all but one of Nintendo's recen...
Abstract: I could start this review by simple say the 2DS plays just like a 3DS without the 3D and a lower price point. But there is a bit more to Nintendo cost inviting DS entry. The 2DS is priced at $129, making it an attractive offer for low budget gamers and pa...
