I can tell you that that thing is going to be nearly unbreakable. 3DS had a lot of issues with breakage.

It did?

It's really quite in here i see. I thought people were interested in this new handheld, or is that just me? lol maybe i'll feel differently about it, if i sleep a night over it!

Well I mean more that expected out of a Nintendo handheld. Still not as much as other consoles.

There were some screen scratching issues when you mishandled it when closed, couple hinge breaks and button unresponsiveness if you held it down too hard. All this children can do pretty easily on the OG 3DS. I've had my R button break after playing OoT3D and the shield button.

Looks like 2DS will have none of these problems. It seems to me that Nintendo is trying to lower the entry price as much as possible and create an unbreakable machine in this thing. It's solely for young kids.
