easy use one hand to hold the 2DS and the other to touch the screen. Its not that complicated. People do it all the time with handhelds :p |
You know its bad when people have to forgo common sense in orde to hate on something. Yes its completely impossible to hold it with one hand while using the touch screen with the other...Cause every touch screen game is made for people with 3 hands.
|
If you really think its fine and we are just looking to hate, why did Nintendo move start and select?
|
Because those are buttons you might want to access while using regular face buttons....unlike the touchscreen.
|
But games are designed thinking it is simple to just move a thumb and tap a virtual button. That's now going to require the whole hand to be removed. That's annoying and a design flaw.
|
What game requires constant interaction with the touchscreen AND face buttons? Virtually every 3DS game I've ever played either primarily uses one or the other. Even on a regular 3DS, accessing the touchscreen in a game using traditional buttons is, at best, uncomfortable and awkward anyway, and requires me to completely abandon the face buttons. And this is coming from someone who has big hands. You don't have to remove your hand. You just slide it down.

teigaga said: The worst SKU edition any system has seen ever? I think so |
stop being mad cuz you dont want it, not everybody has a good budget. Its optional, your not force to play 3DS games on it.
|
Dude, at least admit its a horribly cheap SKU. The 2DS is a lot worse than both 3DS versions, but at least its really cheap. Your logic is like saying the white Wii U was a great SKU because it was cheaper. The market showed that isn't how things work.
|
I really like design and dont enjoy 3D so just because u dont like it doesnt make it a horrible sku
|
It has a single speaker that's not even in the center, it is way larger than the other skus yet doesn't have a larger screen, not pocket-able, harder to reach touch screen, and a worse battery life. It's a horrible sku, but at least it doesn't cost a lot.
|
3DS XL, Vita and Tablets arent very pocketable either and nobody seems to complain about them. Surveys have shown adults who play handheld gaming play at home the vast majority of the time and kids dont need to put it in there pockets, they play it while on car rides or walking thru stores with parents or at home or friends house. The battery life is essentualy the same. And its not larger, it just doesnt fold. I have pretty big hands and cant comfortably reach the touch screen on 3DS or XL without holding it in one hand and using the other exclusively for the touch screen, so nothing really changed. That just leaves the speaker as ur argument why its horrible.
|
Think of it this way. Nintendo themselves thinks it's a bad sku. If they thought it was on par to the other ones, they would not be selling it for $40/$70 less.
|
That argument makes no sense. This system is SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED to be cheaper. Nintendo doesn't think its a bad SKU because of the lower price point. The lower price point is the whole damn point.
