A:AnswerNintendo 3DS games will work on multiple systems, including New Nintendo 3DS XL, Nintendo 3DS, New Nintendo 2DS XL, and Nintendo 2DS. You can also play games from older systems like Nintendo DS and Nintendo DSi, so it's easy to upgrade to a new system without losing your game library.
A:AnswerThey will no longer be restocked as they have been officially discontinued by Nintendo's orders. Perhaps they may be available in certain Best Buy stores... but once they're out, they're out, for they are no longer being manufactured.
A:AnswerHi ConcernedMom,
Preloaded software can be re-downloaded via the Nintendo eShop.
If you aren't sure that the game was deleted but it is presently missing, try reinserting the microSD card first.
Best of luck!
A:Answeryes it does. I was hesitant to purchase b/c it said for the new nintendo 3ds only, but the 2ds XL actually says 3ds when it starts up. We purchased the game cartridge for her and just got it today and it definitely works !
