cold because it is retro tech at a premium price. 2DS units are for mugs.

Or parents who don't want their children having 3d....

Nice little console. Shhhh.... don't tell Noahsdad!

But personally I'd forget about Pokemon Yellow and get it a fiver cheaper from Amazon.

You either use the 3D toggle button to disable it or being the parent you just make use of the parental controls and go into the settings and disable 3D (takes all about 15 secs max to do that).As it goes I have found kids don't like or use the 3D anyway, does not suit their eyes. So why bother with rubbishy retro tech, why not go with the better unit that is more comfortable, and a future proofed screen that plays all games and might suit your kid better when they grew up.Nintendo will keep making crappy 2DS units, so long as people are daft enough to buy them.Read lessRead more

But why would I pay more money for something my children won't use? I don't even use the 3D function on my DS so actually this model would be perfect for my needs too (and cheaper than the DS I have right now)

I don't understand why technology this old is still selling for more than about £50.

Nice deal as its the first I've seen that includes a game

You get topcashback too from Game

Its £129.99 on amazon

Rubbish.
ancient low quality pixelated screen..still they re-designed it and want premium price for the same thing..
have you seen the build quality? it feels so cheap and flimsy, it's beyond believe they want £135 for it.. (edited)

there is NOTHING nice about it.

People buy them for the superb games, not the resolution of a screen.

If you wanna talk about retro tech, the whole 3ds family is is retro tech, at most you can say they've revamped tech from 2011.
You still don't get that people don't use the 3D function, therefore by paying less they are winning rather than wasting money on things they wont use.

You do realise some people don't have the luxury to buy consoles, thus the 2DS lineup is a far more viable option for them, allowing them to play the same games for less money.

Overall, its whatever suits the consumers situation at the time.

It's the "new" 2DS - the old ones didn't fold. It has a bigger screen, a better processor, Amiibo support, and it can play the "new" games (only example I could find was Xenoblade).

If they had the Black one in stock with Pokemon then i would go for it. White handheld devices get dirty too easy.

Pokemon Yellow is a download code. It's the original GameBoy game on the e-store and about 18 years old. Most children getting this game would be somewhat disappointed compared to the recent Pokemon 3DS titles

any news on new colours etc coming out as these both look pretty crappy
seen the thing about japanese slime one that looked cool but even plain black/black would be better!

Just 2 colour options for the UK - m.store.nintendo.co.uk/new…ist

Japanese colours can be bought here - play-asia.com/sea…2ds

Where could you sell the code from this?

Not just Xenoblade but SNES games from the VC!
