I just got a 2DS Electric Blue with Mario Kart 7 for $99.99 at Best Buy. I would get one, while you can, this deal won't last!!

its supply and demand. The blue one is more popular then the red so some try to sell the blue for more. Most stores sell them both for the same price.

Supply and demand. More people want the black, so the 2 tone isn't selling as well -and therefore is cheaper.

I do not have any data or research to back this up, but it seems the less desirable colors go on sale as if the distributors are trying to move the colors that don't sell as well. The more common or neutral colors seem to be sold at regular price more often. Basically, supply and demand, the cameras are the same but a less desirable look might not sell as well and the distributors still need to sell them to get their money back.

No idea - they are the same - but my daughter has the blue one and she didn't care - and it is still working great after several years of educational and fun play!

I was wondering the same thing. Obviously one difference is price, in which I'm going with the cheapest!

They probably have more of each color or the cheapest one is not selling well. Sometime companies will lower the price of one to get the merchandise to sell. Hope this helps.

I am thinking of purchasing the blue version and would love to have an answer to your question.

I believe it is just the colors. I have bought one of each now, and there have been no noticeable differences to me. When I bought them, every color was listed for a different price. I think they charge more for the more popular colors or possibly stock levels.

I did not realize the white model is cheaper. Typically, anything other than black is more expensive.

I would guess because way more people buy the black one over the blue one. I have both now, and I can tell you the only difference is the color. From what I have seen with both, they are the exact same thing in the same color. I don't want to tell you one thing and have you go and buy it, but that's what I've noticed.

When Amazon gets them in stock they are $10.99. When Amazon runs out of stock they are usually offered by a 3rd party seller for a higher price. I'm sure that's what you saw. Anyway, the blue is also $10.99 right now.

I am pretty sure the difference is color only. Some colors are more popular than others and therefore cost more. Some colors are probably over-stocked and therefore cost less. As far as I can see - no difference based on the color.

I have the blue one and it was only $167 when I bought it in July 2014. From the picture it appears exactly the same as the one I have right now.

The pictured is a model 1, and the model 2 is typically cheaper if ever so slightly. The model 3 tends to be more but not a whole lot more

Not 100% sure but I think the difference is that the graphics comes with a cozy foot cover..I really wanted it but.... I never use it so I so t think it's worth the extra $

I'm not sure. I can only think some colors are more popular than others and that's why they are more expensive.

Nope, any nintendo system with XL is going to have the bigger screen. I'm not sure if they make a 2DS XL, but the 2DS I purchased (Nintendo 2DS - Electric Blue) has a standard size screen, quite noticeably smaller than any of the XL game systems.
