Before I got my new DSi, I dropped my first DSi in the toilet. For around a year, I didn’t have a DSi. But then, when I decided that I wanted a new DSi, I was thinking about it a lot. Then, on thanks giving, (2016 if you are viewing this in the future) my uncle Gary gave me a DSi!
After Christmas, I was was watching YouTube and I watched a video about glitches in the 3DS. Then I realized that the 3DS has more software (at first I thought that the 3DS just had 3D and a few more games). Then I really wanted a 3DS.
Later, I was looking at prices on Nintendo’s website for the 3DS. It was only saying prices for the new Nintendo 3ds XL. I was very frustrated. But then I ended up looking at the 2ds, that was exactly the same (but without the 3D effects, and it’s cheaper).
pros:
- Built in games
- Nintendo e shop
- Themes
- More games
- Coin system for walking
cons:
- No 3D effects
Kind of in the middle:
- No hinges

The websites I looked at were Amazon, Best buy, Nintendo, and GameStop. Amazon didn’t have it, Nintendo had it for 79.99, Best buy had it with Mario Cart 7 for 79.99, and GameStop had it with mario cart 7 for 79.99. I will chose GameStop if Bestbuy doesen’t work.
