2013 also marked Nintendo's introduction of the 2DS with a lack of 3D support and an unspoken admission by Nintendo that the 3D concept was a gimmick. Gee, who saw that coming? I dunno, maybe Sega, say 30 years ago.
The 3DS and it's library are part of my hurricane preparedness kit. Because the only way I would play the thing is if a lack of electricity prevents me from playing games on a large screen. So I can't comment yet on whether 3DS or even DS games are good, bad or otherwise. The best thing I can appreciate about the 3DS/2DS line was the plethora of Limited Edition consoles they received. I love owning/displaying Limited Edition consoles and have the Retro NES Edition, Green Yoshi Edition, Super Mario Bros. 2 Edition, Hyrule Edition, Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask Limited Edition, Samus Edition, Super NES Edition, Hylian Shield Edition, Pikachu Edition, Poke Ball Edition, and Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D Link Edition on my shelves.
