I don't know why people get so upset whenever a game company makes something that isn't designed for them.

I work at retail at an electronics store and A LOT of customers are concerned about the 3D feature for young kids. As for the form factor, the lack of a hinge means that there is less of a chance for the device breaking. It's bulky for a pocket, but if you're a 7 year old kid, even a 3DS is going to be a tough fit.

It's a 3DS for kids, and especially for kids whose parents don't want to spend 170-200 dollars so they can play Pokemon X/Y or Mario Bros 2. It's a smart move that will pay off. Older gamers will be better sticking to the XL.

Wait: the concept would be good, 3D screen is bad for a quite large minority, a lower price is surely good, and a case in one piece, without hinges, can be better for some games, but the implementation is horrible! But after all, if you take 3D out of 3DS, isn't what you get a sort of DSi?
