Was the 2DS and New 3DS a waste of time for Nintendo?

[Netty]

I had sold my original 3DS a long time ago so it was a real treat to pick up the New 3DS. The larger screens, the second analog stick (which gets used in a couple of games I'm playing), and the much improved 3D made it very worthwhile for me. It's a good product - I don't think it was a waste.
