Nintendo 2DS 

 

There can be a lot of frustration in a lot of corners of the video game industry because we want different things. Companies target specific audiences with certain products. There has been hate out there by some concerning the Nintendo 2DS. Why? Because the haters do not comprehend perspectives beyond their own. Whereas I can see the good in the Nintendo 2DS. I can see how this can reach an audience.

Families tell me all the time they are concerned about the damage the Nintendo 3DS does to the eyes. My wife Yolanda has problems with migraines and the 3D in the Nintendo 3DS can trigger them. Nintendo has never once bothered to pay for the pain and suffering their Nintendo 3DS device causes. The Nintendo 2DS is the perfect solution. Everyone who wants to play Nintendo 3DS hand held games without the 3D damage causing effects can now do so.

This wedged shaped unit feels strange at first. As does the lack of being able to swivel it shut. We had to purchase a cover to protect the screen since it is exposed. Nintendo missed something with that little problem. Once you get used to how it feels, it works great. A nice long battery charge allows kids to play longer than they can on the Nintendo 3DS. The games look and sounds great on the Nintendo 2DS. Kids have no issues using the Nintendo 2DS.

Nintendo made a bit of a blunder with the instructions in apps like Mii Universe on the Nintendo 2DS. The instructions are obviously written for the Nintendo 3DS. How do I know? It shows a 3DS and tells me to close it. Well the Nintendo 2DS has no hinges and can not close. Since this app came pre-installed I had expected it to comprehend the differences between the two hand helds.
