Is there any time that the 3d is absolutely neccesary, screwing over anyone using a 2ds?

It all depends on the user, it capitivates our 8 yr old grandson for hours. Of course he loves legos too and loves 500 + pieces finishing in one setting.

No. This game works on a 2DS and 3DS. From my understanding you can play older games on the new consoles but not the other way around.

Yes, it should connect and play easily. I don't know if the 3D will work with it, but it should perfectly in 2D.
1709070
yes, on a 2DS it should work fine; it won't work on any DS, DSi, or any DS colsole before the original 3DS.

No, it's a 3DS not a NDS and only the latter one can play Pokemon yellow :(

It will for sure, but for future reference, it will not be compatable with 3ds or dsi enhancement games from other regions. Fortunately though, any plain ds game is fair game.

I'm not sure, I haven't tried any. But the Nintendo 3DS wiki probably has the info you're looking for.

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.

Yeah, ds/dsi games can be played on the 3ds, but they won't be able to be played using the 3D feature, only in 2D, only 3DS games will be able to play using the 3D feature. Hope this helps

Now that I see the other answers... I see my previous answer was useless. Yes sir the 3DS is touchscreen display. Think of the 3DS as a miniature laptop with 3D visuals on the screen, and instead of the keyboard, its sporting another screen with touch screen capabilities. Its called DS because it is a Dual-Screen device; hence the letters DS for the name. And 3D because it uses super sexy Nintendo technology to make your screen THREE DIMENSIONAL; hence 3D.Put those together and yoi get 3DS. 3D+DS=3DS. So to put it shortly now, yes it is touchscreen display, but only on the bottom half of it. Now that I see the other answers... I see my previous answer was useless.

Yes all 3ds games will work on 2ds. The 2ds is just a 3ds without the 3D feature, that is the only difference.

No. .. The processor only helps to recognize the 3D bluray, not convert 2D to 3D image .
2108277
yes it will but you wont be able to use the 3d feature but the will work fine on the 2ds.

I have no idea if it will work on the 2DS or not. Not really familiar with the 2DS.
2081430
Yes it is. The 3D has three heads that 'float' separately. The 2D has three heads but they are locked in place relative to each other. That is a big difference.

this card may not be fast enough for a 3DS, you need a Sandisk extreme card.

Is it really that hard to comprehend the obvious? I mean, let's excuse juicy bits like the 3DS logo on the side of the box, the title of the game HINTING at the "3" in 3DS, and/or the fact that the 3DS itself has been out for three years so far now. Yet, you're terribly ignorant of what hardware this game is compatible with? Ah, and research continues to remain underrated. Boy, when people ask incredibly STUPID questions like this, they really prove that there IS such a thing as a STUPID question.
