If he's saying it's a good idea, then something is very wrong.

Ok so when i first saw the 2DS i thought "Great, it's probably a cheaper version of the 3DS without the 3D, people will probably buy it if they don't want the 3D" Then i saw the price and thought "Na, You can probably get a 3DS somewhere cheaper" If they sold it for a lot less than the 3DS then sure, good, but the price is almost the same if not more than the 3DS that it's absolutely pointless.

Its all right. If you pay attention to what hes actually saying.... Its a back handed compliment. Its actually a passive agressive insult against the 3ds, topped with that good old fashioned pachter ignorance.<br /><br />

2DS is like the Xbox One without Kinect. Some don't want to pay for something they don't use. Xbox One gives a "choice", but you have to pay

Aye, a choice of no 3d, or portability, or stereo speaker soun, or the ability to close, or decent battery life. And its designed to look like a childs toy, because it is a childs toy.

Its a 3ds for the kids too young to safely use normal 3ds's, to ensure pokemon reaches max saturation, as explicitely stated by nintendo.

He knows this, he only pretends to be daft for his public games spokesperson shtick. If youve ever looked at one of his reports, hes a completely different person.

Hes flying out his butt cheeks as his internet personality to 'praise' it because it perpetuates the Nintendo is 'kiddy' image.... But purposefully not mentioning the 2ds was specifically designed for kids, ie, stating its exactly like the 3ds to the nintendo consumer, just a choice, leaves a very specific inference.
