Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo launching New Super Mario Bros. 2 2DS bundle in NA on August 25

Shikamo on 31 July 2017

                            

The New 2DS XL is the hot new thing for Nintendo in the 3DS line right now, but the company hasn’t forgotten about the original 2DS. Next month, the big N will be shipping out a new bundle.

Consumers will soon be able to pick up a white-and-red 2DS system with New Super Mario Bros. 2. The game will come pre-installed. It’s slated for August 25 at a $79.99 price point.

Doug Bowser, Nintendo of America’s Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing, said in a statement:

“Nintendo 2DS is the ideal system for parents that want to introduce their kids to the creative world of Nintendo that they grew up with. Its budget-friendly price and huge library of games will provide hours of entertainment for the whole family – whether after school, on the weekends or even while traveling.”

He's wrong about it being ideal just for kids... it's ideal for every gamer who likes Nintendo games.

The 2ds was only made because of backlash against the 3d whichcould possibly effect children's vision. Also I think most adults would buy a 2ds xl and not a 2ds.

Remember how the sales of Mario Kart 7 spiked during a similar bundle?

.....I suspect we might see that again, though maybe less intense.



The Democratic Nintendo fan....is that a paradox? I'm fond of one of the more conservative companies in the industry, but I vote Liberally and view myself that way 90% of the time?

I'm an adult and bought the 2DS because it was only $79.99 and did everything the 3DS can do minus 3D gameplay, which I don't even use anyway.

I feel like I've seen that image before. Does this bundle already exist in Europe?

Eww, I have a 2DS and it really hurts my hands after a while. Hard to gripe for the price and including a great game though

Same here, I get hand cramps like crazy after an hour or so.

 

These 2DS bundles are hard to pass up though considering they're not much more than the game itself. I was already planning to get NSMB2 anyway. Decisions, decisions...

No 2ds XL bundle?
NSMB2 is one of my favorite 3DS games so i hope the bundle does well.
