    If you want the cheapest and newest way to play DS and 3DS games on a bigger screen, buy this. You also have access to buying Game Boy, Game Boy Color, NES, and SNES games.

    Didn't realize the DS line is being phased out. Feels a little cheap but the size is nice.

    Everything is better than the 3DS except it is not backward compatible regarding 3D graphics. I am not super invested in the 3D graphics, but I can see how players who enjoy the 3D graphics may want to hold off on the upgrade.

    I prefer the 2DS over the 3DS. I never used the 3D anyway. This is a great handheld with fun games.

    Not as good, IMO, as 3ds XL

    This is a good model of the DS series. The price is affordable, it comes included with a game @ $150. The battery life is good as well. I will state the "build" and "quality" and "feel" of the product is VERY lacking compared to other Nintendo products I own and have owned. The 3DS XL I have feels much better put together. Even holding it was worth the $50 extra I paid - forget the 3D feature for a minute and just think about the item you're holding. Folks will argue it's lighter, but I don't actually find that a quality at this weight difference - it doesn't matter for my big mits. This was a gift - the person who recieved it was very happy with it, and as they should be - it's a quality product. I would just lean the more advanced gamer to go with the 3DS XL.
