Losers they only added a big screen and you can no longer close it
They also cut the price a fair bit and removed the painful 3D feature

this is stupid. they should of just made 3ds games compatible with regular ds. The 3d feature on the 3ds is the stupidest thing i've ever used and all it does is cause major headaches.

BoarTheDylanDylandaRealRush This is just another Regular DS, except it can play 3DS games! I'm sorry, but just no! No!
for younger audience and people who don't want to buy a 3ds just to play 1 or 2 games
Why not just have made 3DS games compatible with the DS in the first place without 3D effect? Would have been a lot easier than making this ugly thing.
Since the 3DS is way more powerful than the DS that wouldn't be possible it would be like trying to play ps3 games on a PS2 or XBOX 360 games on an original XBOX.It,s not just a DS/Lite with optional 3D

McNuggets_Jr There's like what 10 different types now, maybe more? Nintendo need to stop milking this crap...
Well they have been essentially the same from the DS upwards apart from the little 3D effect which a lot hated, they are sort of milking it.

Pufferfish It would be nicer if the whole device was red or blue. Not just the back
It would be nicer if they stopped making them altogether.
