In two decades, it's going to be wild to look back at a complete collection of 2DS and 3DS systems in the same way that we look at Game Boy Color variants right now. (Mine was teal for some reason.) Three more limited-edition New 2DS XL des...

Nintendo's never dying line of 3DS consoles will be getting yet another Zelda themed system soon. Nintendo is partnering with GameStop to release a very handsome New 2DS XL themed after the Triforce Crest. You'll be able to grab the system ...

The new 2DS XL is a pretty sleek console in general, but this Pikachu edition has me thinking about throwing my perfectly functional 3DS XL in the garbage.  Rest easy, this gorgeous-looking handheld isn't some Japan exclusive. It's lau...

It's November which means, whether we like it or not, holiday shopping is underway, with Black Friday not far behind. If you're like me you and can appreciate a good deal, but would prefer not to get trampled in a doorway, then life can be ...

October 6 is a big day for Nintendo. As we learned in today's Nintendo Direct, we're gonna get some games that day (including the Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga remake and its accompanying amiibo). Also available on October 6 is this oran...

Every now and then, a game developer likes to state something so blatantly obvious that your shoulders will spontaneously shrug in utter bafflement. In a recent interview with Game Informer, Game Freak (the developer behind Pokemon) thought...

Last week it was Splatoon 2, this week it's Dragon Quest XI (and still Splatoon 2) pushing console sales. If you weren't aware, Dragon Quest is the game series in Japan, so much so that each new entry only releases on Saturda...

During the PS2 days, the Culdcept franchise was one those things that caught my eye, since the idea of having a board game with creature cards sounded interesting. Unfortunately, other titles grabbed my attention so I missed out on playing ...

It's starting to get difficult to keep track of every iteration in the Nintendo 3DS console line up. First, there was the original 3DS console from 2011. Then came the 3DS XL in 2012, which simply provided users with a larger variant of Nin...

In previous years, Nintendo has held a "Play Nintendo" event to showcase upcoming games in a public setting. In addition to being like an E3 that most people can actually visit, the kiosks are full of Nintendo charm and glee while also offe...

Since 2013 Nintendo has chosen to skip the financial cost of hosting a press conference at the yearly Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles. Instead they have broadcast their own pre-recorded Nintendo Direct while the expo is occurri...

With the Switch out and high-profile 3DS game releases starting to wind down, it hadn't even crossed my mind that Nintendo would come out with another model, but here we are. Enter the New Nintendo 2DS XL, which will sit right in between th...

Pokémon Sun & Moon has been one of the top two selling games every week since it's release nearly five weeks ago. It slid into second place only in weeks where Final Fantasy XV and Yakuza 6 released, but then overt...

After its initial week's lukewarm 670,000, Final Fantasy XV sales are down to 79,792 in Japan for the week of December 5 - December 11, 2016, the game's second week. That 88% decrease drops it to number five on the software sales ranki...

Animal Crossing: New Leaf was an incredible update to a charming series. The amount of polish along with bonus features made coming back everyday something I looked forward to. I played the game for a solid year straight to catch every bug,...

Pokémon Sun and Moon will be demoed and Yo-kai Watch 2 is coming to Europe -- that's just two of many announced plans that Nintendo has detailed for its gamescom brief. Here's a summary of what it has in store (note: most o...

In an effort to get some form of the 3DS hardware into as many hands as humanly possible, Nintendo is cutting the price of the 2DS to $80, down from $100, on May 20 with "some" marked systems including a Mario Kart 7 download. For thos...

February 27 marks the 20-year anniversary of the release of Pokémon Red and Blue in Japan. In those 20 years, the lovable game about pocket monsters has grown into a marketing mammoth. Like an earlier Angry Birds, ...

Not keen on the New 3DS and simply want a console to play those 3DS titles you've been itching to get your hands on? You're in luck. Nintendo is offloading some refurbished 2DS units for only $60 on its eBay store (aka the online outle...

Two years after its western release, the Nintendo 2DS is finally coming to Japan. The handheld will be available in four semi-transparent colors (red, green, blue, and yellow), all of which come matched with one of the original Pokém...

With all the Battlefront and Fallout 4 news from the last few weeks it feels like the hype-train really never left the station. But in the deal train makes go on as December titles are now on the horizon. Square Enix's Just Cause 3 is out o...

Nothing to do this 4th of July? How about some deals? Because we've got some deals. I mean they're not Black Friday good but they're pretty good. Sorta. Kinda. (Do we earn our copywriting merit badge now, Mr. Scoutmaster?).  Over at Ga...

[Update: Nintendo's official response is as follows: "Nintendo has nothing to announce about the production status of Nintendo 3DS."] We have reason to believe Nintendo of America has completely ceased production of the original 3DS model, ...

Need something to match your Pokemon X and Y 3DS? Need something to play Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire? Want to relive 1998 without the Y2K scare and having to hear "My Heart Will Go On" until you're sure that your heart will...
