Can you play 2 player with just 1 cartridge (2 3ds) or do you need to purchase it 2x for 2 player?

You need 2 cartridges (or digital copy) to play with other people because you need to make your own character and your own town.

Yes. It is possible for you both to play on one game card. However, the game saves to the cartridge, not the actual system itself. Therefore, you will have to share the same town. The only problem is that one of you will be the mayor, and the other will be a resident in the town. It doesnt affect much except your ability to create public works projects and create ordinances, really something the two of you can discuss in person and work out in the real world. Other than that, the game will be almost identical, except for some of the villagers not calling you the mayor.

It has two. I mostly play two player games with this and it works flawlessly.

Sure you can. It actually depends on the game you want to play that allows 2 players. This particular item comes with only one controller, so you will have to buy the wiimote and nunchuck (if needed). That was my case.

I am 90% certain that it can not be played with a regular DS, as the way the game is programmed is specific for the things the 3DS does/can do. I'm unavailable to test this as of right now, though. :/

Not that I am aware of. If it's an actual game, I believe you have to buy two or just have them share (easier said than done!).

Each system requires its own copy of the game to play multiplayer, if you plan to get two copies, then one of you should get pokemon Y and the other one should get Pokemon X so you can complement each other with the things your version lacks.

Ben, I'm sorry but I don't know. I have only played 1 player. However, I believe you can play 2 player on 1 DVD.

It is possible. The instructions include directions for an "expert" variant for 2 players. The instructions recommend that you play a few times with 3-7 players before trying the 2 player version. I haven't tried it with 2 players, so I have no idea how it compares to the normal 3-7 player game.

You will need two copies of a leapfrog game. Cartridge stays inserted as the child plays...

You get 2 cartridges. I am still using the first one and have not had any problems with it. Works great....

I bought this as a gift for a family member, but what I've heard about 3ds games, they must be played on the 3ds system. I wish I could be of more help.

Actually, Joseph, I've wondered that same question but have been reluctant to try it. I only used one cartridge and wasn't real impressed with the outcome. Let me know if you find out the answer to your question. Peace to you, Janie

It has an option for a 2 player game. I don't know if you have to buy another controller or if they share. I have not found anywhere that sells an extra controller.

There is a "share" function between all DS' but it requires the DS without the game to download it from the other and for the desired game to allow "Download play". You should also probably note that the shared version of the game isn't actually the full game and only allows limited content for the downloader; although the game is downloaded it is also required that the two DS' stay within a close enough range to hold the wireless signal. If it's a single player game you'll most likely have to buy 2 but if it's a game like Mario kart or multiplayer centered you could probably do fine just buying one and require the kids to be civil about who gets the full content or share.
