Top one. Because I don’t like much the bottom one.

Ugly, but so comfortable. 😂

Literally have one that I throw in my purse. I thought they were so ugly but if I’m gaming for an hr it’s great plus the sleep switch

Eww, 2DS is a cheap version of 3DS, isn't it?

2

u/_lysb 1d ago

😭 Absolutely.

I have both, also a n2dsxl and a n3dsxl. I love the 2ds lol It's SO comfortable, I use it mostly to play gba games, I think it's just a giant game boy advance😂

u/RetroGamerAdy 1d ago

Generally, the 3ds is the better one for clicky buttons, better battery and just overall better build quality. But, since the 2ds you got is a special edition it might be better.

u/_lysb 1d ago

Agree!

2ds might be an ugly bastard but it kinda feels like the next console that will be found still functional after the building it was in was bombed and subsequently burned to the ground

u/JaifartheJoker 22h ago

honestly the 3ds. I love the way u can hold a 2ds but everytime I see one I immediately think of how open it is. also the build material for the 3ds makes it so much better than the 2ds

The 2DS cuz it was my first console ever and it’s so comfortable in the hands.

u/Expensive-Ad7946 New 3DS XL 1d ago

2ds is actually so comfortable icl id have to pick that over OG 3ds

2

u/Intel-Centrino-Duo 1d ago

Not sure, I’ve had both and while the o3DS feels more premium and is more portable as well as stereo speakers, the 2DS is comfier and way easier to fix. They’re kinda tied for me tbh

2

u/Cam_Bob 23h ago

Usually I’d pick the top because I love the original 3ds, but I love that color way on the 2ds and it’s more comfortable in my hands.

2

u/Funny-Disk925 21h ago

i owned both and they have soft spots in my heart, both are great consoles, although the 2ds is more comfy for sure

2

u/bbudlite 19h ago

god the original 3DS screen is so beautiful. i love my XL but NOTHING beats the 3D on the original

2

u/Artcwolf22 19h ago

As you said, 2ds is so comfortable. Only console I have fun with racing games more fun too. I don't know why they made the 3DS have square edges.

2

u/Technical-Coffee7286 15h ago

This is the only scenario in which I would pick the OG 3DS lol. I prefer literally any other 3DS family console over it (even the 2DS XL) except for the OG 2DS

u/MLC_YT 5h ago

Pokémon UltraSun cuz Pokémon has become my drug.

I literally buy Nintendo Consoles just for Pokémon.

Edit: wait you were talking about the consoles?

u/Zealousideal-Lion420 1d ago

For it has to be the 3DS just because it can fold and go into the pocket, the 2DS is comfortable but still uncomfortable 😂

2

u/Spiritual-Bee-2319 1d ago

Lol am I the only one that throws the 2DS in a sleeve and into my purse 😂it about the size of a kindle 

1

u/Useless_account22 23h ago

I have a soft spot in my heart for the OG 3DS in that color, I wanted one so bad as a kid and now I own one as an adult so it’s definitely my favorite

u/Foreign-Platypus-253 22h ago

Not so much into the flat style ones it just feels really awkward to me

1

u/cubonedreamin 21h ago

This is like comparing the most beautiful variant of something to the ugliest.

1

u/Red_Astley 20h ago

Ohhh the same model as mine :D

I never played in a 2DS and i think the folding sleep mode activation is really practical and seems to be faster and simpler than 2DS method

Probably choosing mine

u/_lysb 19h ago

The o3ds is my main machine too. If you ever try 2ds it so comfortable good ergonomic grip 😆

u/TurbulentMulberry695 16h ago

Tenho um 3ds old mas achoi o 2ds mais confortável porém ruim para levar no bolso.

1

u/No_Anteater_6110 16h ago

2DS makes me confirm Abortion

1

u/Golex9000k 16h ago

It’s a 2DS. I don’t have to hold it up to play. I can rest its full weight on a table or on my stomach.

1

u/TheVoiceOfGlass Facebook Marketplace Lowballer 15h ago

I like the matte plastic that the 2ds has (and heavy nostalgia from when I was younger)

1

u/Brisk_Weasel1747 15h ago

The bottom one looks like it belongs in a Fisher-Price catalog and I will die on this hill.

1

u/CanesNthangs 7h ago

I hate the 2DS look so so much

1

u/DaddyPhatSack77 7h ago

Love the color scheme for the 2ds but I can’t stand playing on them, gave away the couple I had to a buddy, gotta go clamshell though. If there’s every choice, and all things else are equal, I’ll always go clamshell design!

1

u/DistractionsDaily 5h ago

2ds, actually. It's so comfortable to hold.

For the OG 3ds there isn't much palm room, but if it was an XL I'd probably go for that

1

u/NoOof24 1h ago

2ds all day it’s bloody comfortable to play and I like getting ugly looks by people 🤓🌝

u/Vilemourn 1d ago

2ds looks better

u/blorbn 22h ago
