    That's gotta be a joke, right?

      Editing … I actually think it's a pretty good idea. Studies have shown that exposing kids under a certain age (like 10 I believe) to 3D visuals is not very good for their eye health or development. It's been one factor in me not getting a 3DS for the boys. That said, the 2DS can give them access to the Zelda, Mario, and Pokemon games they want on the platform at a highly discounted cost. Not the most revolutionary thing in the world, but a nice alternative.

      Editing … I think the idea of releasing a non-3D 3DS for cheaper is fine, but the design is a bit odd. I mean, does it really cost that much more to add hinges? Or are kids so terrible that they're snapping them in half? Oh, and @Daniel Kayser, you can turn off 3D in the Parental Controls menu of any 3DS. If that isn't good enough, it shouldn't be too hard to open up the system and permanently disable the 3D.

      Editing … I can see this being another #Wii Mini. It is trying to fill a niche that does not exist.

      Editing … I don't know man! Just naming it 2DS seems like a downgrade to me. And the design is... moche, très très moche!

      Editing … Not a fan of 3D anyway so I can go along with cutting that out to make a cheaper model. They shouldn't have got rid of the clamshell design though, this one looks weird.

      Editing … It looks like a tablet for kids. And I find the "2DS" name irritating. I get that it's trying to highlight being a "2D version of the 3DS", but it's basically saying "two-dimensional Dual Screen Nintendo handheld" – and that's already what the original NDS is.

      Editing … Actually, now that they're officially merging first-party libraries, Nintendo should create one single MASTER console that plays all games of *all* Nintendo consoles ever made. And it's not forcing you to rebuy everything – I'm talking about playing the original cartridges!
