So basically for the price-conscious gamer and those who were scared of
ruining their (already) square eyes. It doesn't fold over but that might just be
a blessing in disguise – since anything with a flip screen could become
detached through accident.
I really like the ergonomics of the 2DS – it's comfortable to hold and
it's sturdy. I know some people say the thing is ugly but I have to disagree.
To me, it's just very retro and reminiscent of the Game Boy Color system.
There's a slide sleep switch but no wireless button. But that's okay, since
you can easily adjust that on the Home screen.
The SpotPass and StreetPass functionalities are excellent. There's just no
other system that allows you to communicate the way you do with a 2DS/3DS.
There's also a plethora of games and apps in the eShop.
All in all, bulkier but no less fun. :D
