Will the new 2DS be another failure from Nintendo?

I remember reading somewhere that the 2DS sold better than the N3DS. Not sure where, it was a long ago. But considering the 2DS was cheap and easy to make, I'm sure they don't consider it a failure. The N2DS will probably sell well enogh to justify its existance, but I would have prefered to stick with the Switch.

That's untrue. It may have sold better in one region for like a period of a quarter (3 months), but the N3DS XL is the best selling model in the family. 

 

Last FY year, 2DS had 20% of all 3DS sales in Japan, 30% in US, and 50% of sales of all 3DS sales in Europe.
