Yeah, I'm all in support of taking out the 3D feature. When I get my 3DS (and you kind of have to, if you want to be able to play games that are currently out) I will rarely, if ever, use the 3D function. It hurts my eyes and makes me incredibly nauseous. Luckily you get to adjust the level of 3D.
The issue I have is the wackadoo design. I couldn't never find that comfortable to hold. Most of EoFF doesn't know this, but I have incredibly tiny hands. Like, I have to wear kid-sized gloves and mittens and wear a 4.5 ring, that's how tiny my hands are. This would be really bothersome for someone like me to hold.
The lack of 3D is nice, if they can save enough by using regular screens.
The lack of portability seems like an issue though.
oh hey we have the same size hands.Quote:

I actually like 3D stuff in general, the reason I don't have a 3DS is because I can't justify spending the money on it when 99% of my gaming is done on my PC.
I never get to see 3D movies because my family/friends hate it and Huxley can't watch them. :(
Okay, I might be dumb, but can Hux not watch them because of issues with depth perception or something? Or does 3D do funny things to his vision? I'm just curious what his reaction to 3D is. No judgment, cos I'm a puss with 3D, and can't really understand how people like it. The only 3D I can handle is Disney's 3D remakes of old animated films, because it's not even 3D.
He is essentially blind in one eye so he has no depth perception.
Which was my first guess! :)
The whole marketing behind this thing is what irritates me the most. The name! 2DS. A play on 3DS, which was a play on DS and 3D. The new and exciting thing about the 3DS is that it plays 3D games, which is obvious from its name. Now the new and exciting thing about the 2DS is that it plays 2D games? Huh? So isn't it just a new DS?
I'm holding out for the 1DS.
So you'd like this more if it was called the DS2?Quote:

It's called a 2DS because they removed the 3D, but it does play 3DS games, along with DS games. Would it be better if they called it 3DS Lite? No, because then it wouldn't make much sense if there was a 3DS that doesn't handle 3D.Quote:

Yup. Or something more descriptive of its target audience. DS Toddler or DS Lazy Eye.Quote:
