Of all the devices in the DS line (and there's an excessive amount), this is one Nintendo's best models yet, trailing only slightly behind the more expensive New 3DS XL. It's light, durable, comfortable, and a joy to game on...

Huge game library, Attractive design, Affordable
Bigger battery would have been appreciated, Lacklustre displays
The New Nintendo 2DS XL is a stylish refinement on a now well-established formula and whilst stereoscopic 3D is an appreciated feature, this console proves that it's by no means essential.The internal hardware provides you with the smoothest gameplay expe...
Abstract: In a couple ways, the New Nintendo 2DS XL was a long time coming. Despite there being tons of handheld systems released in the Nintendo 3DS family, the New 2DS XL looked like it was going to hit a sweet spot when it was announced. I still remember being p...

Abstract: Though I got to spend some hands-on time with the New Nintendo 2DS XL earlier this year, I was still anxious to use a proper production model in the comfort of my own home After a couple of weeks, I can confirm that I really like this latest iteration, pa...
Abstract: Six years to the day after launching the original 3DS in the US, Nintendo is going to launch the sixth iteration of the handheld console. That's a whole lot of releases for a single machine, but no matter how many times Nintendo changes the look, adds new...

Abstract: I was fortunate enough to be able to play around with the New 2DS XL for a little over a week now. As someone who absolutely loves portable gaming, even though I barely travel, I knew this little guy was going to get a lot of game time out of me. Like man...

Abstract: If you don't care about 3D anymore—and even Nintendo's interest in it seems to be fading—then the New Nintendo 2DS XL is the absolute best model in Nintendo's line of portable gaming hardware. It's a shame the company makes adding new devices such a burde...

Sleek, compact design, Fantastic game library, Fairly affordable, More user-friendly than New 3DS XL
Software feels clunky and dated, Bulky hinge
My biggest gripe with the New Nintendo 2DS XL is that it simply feels dated compared to the Nintendo Switch. But not everyone can afford (let alone find) Nintendo's new $300 console, and for half the price, the 2DS XL serves as a worthwhile alternative fo...

Abstract: The Nintendo Switch exists, and is a fantastic gaming system that you can, in a pinch, play in a bar, a car, or on the train. Phones exist too, and the games on them are better than ever. So why the hell should you own anything else? Because games. The Sw...
