If you can't afford another 3DS, you could always back up the 4.5 firmware before upgrading. Then you don't have to worry about regretting it, you can go back to 4.5 whenever you want to.

Here's some info on the subject; 3DS, 3DS XL

Always here to help.

You see, it was originally the 23DS, aka the second 3DS, but test groups found it confusing, so it was shortened to the 2DS.

They also had trouble manufacturing the 23 dimensional display.

Nonono you see, after it was changed to 2DS, Nintendo thought "well if it's the 2DS, we can take the 3D screen out and save money!"
The screen was never planned to be 2D in the first place, it was a convenient coincidence, so marketing just kind of rolled with it.

Really though, the 2DS+Pokémon costs as much as the 3DS, and Pokémon is 90% 2D anyways... so yeah. Just get a 2DS. It will just be there for playing retail games, so why not? If you can afford a Gateway+3DS(XL), you can most certainly afford Pokémon+2DS

Are you just assuming this or do you have an actual source for your information? :huh:
