Nintendo New 2DS XL- Features
Viewed as an entry-level version of the New 3DS, the Nintendo New 2DS XL retains almost all the hardware of the original model, except for the screen, which now only displays 2D. Its design is different as well, moving away from the clam-design to a friendlier slate layout. With the 2DS XL, Nintendo packs in a stronger processor, more RAM, an analog C-stick and two additional triggers, for an enhanced gaming experience!
ENHANCED DESIGN
The new design not only makes the console more durable by removing the need for hinges, but its button placement also makes it easier to focus on the top screen while following the action.
POWERFUL PROCESSOR
Its main central processing unit is a dual-core ARM11 MPCore-based processor clocked at 266 MHz. One processor core is dedicated to games and applications, while the other core is exclusive to the operating system, enabling multitasking and background tasks. These tasks are handled seamlessly in the background during gameplay or while the system is in sleep mode. The system also contains a single-core ARM9-based processor, enabling backward compatibility with both Nintendo DS and DSi titles.
OUTSTANDING PARTICULARITIES
The console retains the 2 cameras capable of taking 3D photos and videos, a built-in microphone and battery, this time with an increased play time, being able to last up to 9 hours on a charge, depending on the games you are playing. Also, you have the same 2 generous screens, the bottom one being a resistive touchscreen and while the system includes 2 GB of flash memory, it can be expanded by another 2 GB through an SD card.
Nintendo 2DS- Games
Even though it features backward compatibility with older Nintendo DS videogames, the console has an impressive library on its own, featuring over 1300 fun titles to play all day!
MARIO KART 7
With almost 19 million copies sold, Mario Kart 7 is the number 1 best-selling Nintendo 3DS game. As with previous games in the Mario Kart series, players participate in racing on various Mario-themed tracks, playing as one of seventeen different Mario characters. While racing, the players make use of power-up items that either assist their character or hinder opposing characters. New additions to the game include hang-gliding attachments for karts, the ability to drive underwater, the ability to drive in first person, and the ability to fully customize the vehicles’ builds.
SUPER SMASH BROS 3DS
Like the rest of the Super Smash Bros. series, this is a non-traditional fighting game where players use different attacks to weaken their opponents and knock them out of an arena. The games are crossover titles that feature characters, items, music, and stages from various Nintendo franchises, as well as from several third-party franchises.
POKEMON X
Along with Pokemon Y, this is the second best-selling Nintendo 3DS game and follows the journey of a young Pokémon trainer and friends, as they train Pokémon. This time, the game takes place in the Kalos region—based in France—with the objective being to thwart the schemes of the nefarious criminal organization Team Flare. X and Y introduced 72 new Pokémon species, and includes new features such as the new Fairy-type, character customization, updated battle and training mechanics and more.
LEGEND OF ZELDA OCARINA OF TIME
The player controls Link in the fantasy land of Hyrule on a quest to stop the evil king Ganondorf, by traveling through time and navigating dungeons and an overworld. The game introduced features such as a target-lock system and context-sensitive buttons that have since become common in 3D adventure games. The player must learn to play numerous songs on an ocarina to progress.
LUIGI’S MANSION
Take control of Luigi, equipped with the Poltergust 5000, a ghost-eating vacuum cleaner and embark on a quest to pacify the spirits of Evershade Valley and save Mario from King Boo by gathering the shards of the shattered Dark Moon. You’ll have to explore five themed mansions and solve fun puzzles in order to gather all the missing shards. You can also play with your friends, working together to clear each level of a haunted tower, which we guarantee will have you playing for hours on end!
ANIMAL CROSSING: NEW LEAF
One of the most relaxing games on the 3DS, Animal Crossing has you take the role of a villager mistaken as a mayor of a town inhabited by lots of friendly and quirky characters. As you explore and develop the town, you can collect, buy and sell items to decorate your home and the world around you, with several new activities being added to this game. As the game is open-ended, you’re bound to stay playing it for hours on end.
Nintendo 3DS- Fun Facts
- One thing you may not know about is if you blow into the 3DS microphone while on the “Home” menu, the icons on the screen spin around.
- If you’ve always wanted to visit the Louvre Museum in Paris but don’t have the time or money, you can use the official Louvre 3DS app to take a tour of the museum from the comfort of your sofa.
- The 3DS was initially believed to be a failure, so in order to make up for the losses, Nintendo executives took a pay cut, with the company’s president cutting his salary in half. However, the system turned out to be one of the most popular that Nintendo ever released!
Pros:> Hardware is acceptable, with noticeable fps drops being rare, and only 1 crash in my few months of medium use.> The joystick works well and has had no drop in sensitivity over a few months.> Cheaper than the New 3DS XL, and since it is a newer model, Nintendo actually made some improvements to usability, such as Micro SD you don’t have to crack open the entire device to remove. Also the 3D capability is a gimmick, and a poor one at that. The $50 saved is very worth it.Cons:> The hinge is wobbly even when clicked into position, and Nintendo representatives have on record said it’s intentional and not a design flaw, which is PR BS.> The body itself is VERY fragile, I have put on a case, dual screen protectors AND a rubber skin sticker on the device to protect it from daily use and abuse, and after ONE SINGLE DROP from about 4 ft there is a crack on the thin plastic strip above the lower screen.> While the buttons all work well, they are all slightly loose and the new C stick is an absolute joke, it is rigid and small, so movements are inaccurate and hard to read with it.> Battery is slightly lower than expected, with charges needed after around 3 hours.> Nintendo does not want you to repair this device, self-repair is made unnecessarily hard by hard-to-open design, and the repair prices on the support side are a slap in the face, basically the price of the device itself.I only will use until I can emulate the New 3DS games, since its an average device.
