Gaemers of the fediverse: I'm thinking about picking up a Nintendo 3DS of some kind, but don't know what model. I'm mostly torn between the 2DS (cheap and apparently the blocker design is actually more comfortable to hold) and the New 2DS XL (bigger screens, faster processors, etc).

Since they can all play all the same games, more or less, I'm thinking the cheaper 2DS is better, but maybe I'll be frustrated that it's slower?

Any advice is appreciated. Feel free to boost.

Definitely the New 2DS XL

Solid screen, better processor and excellent battery life. Probably the best of the whole 3DS/2DS line-up
