Huh, people are trying to separate the 3DS from the N3DS? Aren't they both the same in terms of the 3DS family like the 2DS? I think people are trying to spin things.

No. The N3DS has games that won't be backwards compatible and there is no way to upgrade/accessories the curred 3DS to play those games. So for NPD purposes it's a new console with backwards compatibility.

The NDSi is an upgraded DS that also includes a camera and games that are not backwards compatible to the Nintendo DS

The DSi and DS are technically considered the same console.

 

How is the n3DS and 3DS and 2DS any different?
