Nintendo 2DS "New Super Mario Bros. 2" bundle releasing this August

DGELrTTUwAAlJa5.jpeg

Despite Nintendo having recently released the New 2DS XL, it seems that the company isn't stopping focus on the older 2DS model. Nintendo of America's Twitter account showed off a new bundle that's set to hit store shelves on August 25th. Retailing for $79.99, it'll be a standard red and white original 2DS system, with New Super Mario Bros. 2 pre-installed. This is likely being released as a reminder that there's a budget-oriented option for Nintendo fans that aren't invested in the 3DS ecosystem yet.

New Super Mario Bros. 2 was a good game. Albeit being VERY short (Beat it 100% in less than 10 hours...), it was a charming and amusing game. As for the 2DS, it's just a regular old 2DS. However, the color scheme looks absolutely fucking TERRIBLE.

I always pick up this bundle because it comes with 9.2 to 11.0 here :P
And it's cheap af in my town, merely 50 bucks.

I have a 2DS and personally, it's not as bad as people think.
It's kind of like a PSP but more comfortable.
A comfy system that can be hacked with no extra hardware that costs $80 and can play 1000s of games from multiple generations natively.

So comfortable, there is still need for this. I wanted a special edition to replace my 2DS, even though I just transferred my first O3DS to 2DSXL. In case there's a question why I prefer my 2DS's for emulation and my 3DSXL for 3DS games.

2DS hardware is exactly the same as any non New 3DS hardware.
The only reason people hate the 2DS is because of the shape, not
the actual gameplay performance.

Fun fact: in North America, the game released on August 19, 2012 - by the time this bundle release, this game will be just over 5 years old!

The failure to recognize a good gaming bargain continues dauntlessly...

I actually love this game, not sure why the hate. I'm glad they're doing this bundle, the included multiplayer mode makes it tempting to get a couple
