Update: 2DS video, product & lifestyle shots
A whole lot of news coming out of Nintendo today! First up, and the biggest surprise, is the announcement of the Nintendo 2DS. This device is labeled as an “affordable entry point” into portable gaming with Nintendo, and will be priced at $129.99. Releasing on October 12th alongside Pokemon X and Y, the device is essentially a 3DS without the 3D, able to play both 3DS and DS titles. It also drops the clam shell design in favor of a fixed, slated form and will come in both blue and red at launch.
