Is this game compatible with the older 3ds? null

No, this game is only compatible with 3DS models that have "New" branding as they feature a faster processor than the older models. That includes the New 3DS, New 3DS XL and New 2DS XL models. The packaging for "New" only games is laid out differently than other releases and will feature a banner indicating it is "Only For *New* Nintendo 3DS".

We have a 3ds that is a couple years old and it needed a quick update when my son played it the first time and it's been fine after that.

Yes, that was my worry. I bought this for her for Christmas and it works just fine. If for some reason it gives you trouble a simple Google search will fix it!

NO. We made the mistake of buying it, and realized it wouldn't play in the older version.

It’s won’t work with the older version
