Don't really see the point since the 3DS has a slider...

Its in the settings, you can turn it off so they can't adjust it
This really takes the biscuit, its like nintendo thought coming up with something terrible would make the WiiU seem like a better option
There is a parental lock on the 3DS to stop kids from turning on the 3D.
Never knew that although haven't had to look in to it just yet can't be too far away though. That does make this a bit defunct then.
Why is that?
They've created a budget hand-held console for children and people who can't see the 3D. It will sell well.
Very good value too. £10 more than an OUYA, or the price of two PS4 controllers.
I have been interested in a 3DS for a while and planned to buy one for the next Zelda but I certainly wont be getting this even though I have no plans to use the 3D feature.
It's not much cheaper than the original small 3DS, plus the 3D can be turned off on the 3DS.
2DS is low risk name, as it plays all DS games. So when the next nintendo handheld comes: the
4DS - they can drop the orignal DS support quite easily.
I hope they implement spacetime better than they did 3D
Why was he banned anyway? I disagreed with many things he said but I don't recall him breaking any forum rules.
Any game developed for the 3DS will no longer have any 3D because people who bought the 2DS will complain
Hell even games that i've waited for years to arrive on the 3DS such as Professor Layton VS Phoenix Wright will be a watered down 2D version
The 3DS is now as pointless as the something like the Megadrive 2
Nintendo will still produce 3DS amd 3DSXL.
But it does indicate, as I said earlier that they are probably slowly moving away from 3D.
Eh? Why would the devs remove the 3D? I can see them not bothering to add it in the first place (but they can do that now - Steamworld Dig is entirely in 2D), but nobody who owns a 2DS is going to complain if the games aren't in 3D, and nobody is going to stop making games in 3D because of the 2DS (as 3D games will happily work in 2D mode or on the 2DS.
I actually think this is a reasonable idea - remove the 3D screen and put a 2D one in, sell it a bit cheaper for people who don't want or can't see the 3D effect.
However, the design is HORRIBLE. What were they thinking?!? Where are the shoulder buttons anyway? Why didn't they make it foldable like the 3DS, rather than this monstrosity?
??????????
This has to have been mentioned hundreds of times but...
You are forgetting US prices are quoted excluding sales tax.
£110 is £91.67 excluding VAT and $142.26. So we are paying £7.90 more than the US.
Having said that, if I was buying one tomorrow I would pay £20 more and get the 3DS.
