    IT'S. FOR. KIDS.

    Kids who go on the playground and toss it to the dirt?

    The design isn't even that new, it looks like a Tumble case for the iPad.

    More or less, NOT getting the screen(s) scratched by loose change or your keys or anything else in your pocket...

    There was a recent surge in hinges pricing, so Nintendo had to rethink the whole 'how to make a portable, affordable handheld'. They thought about it so much they forgot about the portable and came up with this.

    DigitalAtlas is right. The 2DS is being marketed toward younger children. No 3D means little kids can't accidentally turn it on and f*ck up their eyes. No open/close means you can't sit on it and f*ck it up when it's open. It's lighter, and the buttons are smaller, making it easier on little hands. It's also a bit more durable, and it's going for 129$ a pop, meaning parents will have less worries about their kids f*cking up an expensive toy.

    In fact, you're not even supposed to have a 3DS if you're under 10 years old (because of the 3D), so this is great for elementary schoolers.

    Oh I've got nothing against having a 3D-less model for kids. The issue here is Nintendo designed a door stopper instead of an actual portable device.

    DISCLAIMER: I'm actually a huge 3DS fan, and consider it one of the best portable devices out there. But this is something I can't defend.

    You don't need to. It's not for you. It's for kids. KIIIIDS. KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDS.

    You're a fully grown adult criticizing a toddler's play thing. I hope you feel bad about yourself.

    At least the 3DS XL actually looked like something to be played with. This... thing... looks more like something I'd find at a Home Depot.

    Okay, now you're just pulling stuff out of your arse in order to prove you're right.
