I was fortunate to find a 2DS with a game for 30 bucks at a thrift store! I wasn’t sure if I should of bought it for my collection because I had no clue how much they go for but after a minute I just bought it, tested it home and it worked! I think it had lego Batman in it too.
The original DS(Fatboy) had a front light (I owned one with the demo for "Metroid: Prime Hunters"), the back light for the DS didn't occur until the DS Lite(which I picked up, after getting rid of my original DS).
I bought a black and blue 2DS for £5 / $7 the other day from a charity shop. No charger or stylus, it definitely works though. Had a 4gb SD card in it too.
honest to god i came back to gameboys this year ( i am 5 years old the 1st gameboy was made in 1989 you do the math ) i came back cause im fixing them to resale and an also the real reason why i started using them again was so i could make lsdj chiptune music ( im a producer ) . and i started to discover all the fun things like why does the gameboy sp doesnt have a headphone jack ( i had one when i was young didnt notice ) also ., the best all around experience is the gameboy dmg in size , etc ( i even had fun with tetris ) . anyhow second best is of course everything gameboy advance but well hehe !! yhese are very comfortable
I bought mine like this a week ago for about the same price from GameStop refurbished mine came with the top screen all scratched and a couple of dents, I felt that for the condition of the product it wasn't worth it for what I paid but I kept it because probably in the future I can just replace the top part for another one. (I hope)
i got one 2 years ago and it broke a few months later :( and for awhile i HATED gamestop bc of it! >:( BUT it mightve broke bc of mods! since i think i was supposed to use mario kart 7 to mod it :| but i didnt :/ srry for the long story lol BUT THIS YEAR AFTER CHRISTMAS IMMA TRY AGAIN BUT WITH A 2DS :D wish me luck whoever you are random commenter if you see this :)
Mario kart 7 came out 2011. You thinking of mario kart ds? Also Nintendo 1st party tend to be evergreen as in they won't ever go down really cheap (as new)
Mine is still in perfect condition with no cracks so I don’t need to fix it I saw you wanted a original DS so just to say I have one with no cracks also
Lol i got my younger sister's old 2ds which had a broken lcd and i replaced it with a $38 screen from AliExpress the only issue is a little blue line that if you don't notice it seemms like its not there (this is kinda unrelated)
I have a question, my gamestop is currently sold out on pre-owned and refurbished Nintendo 2ds's. When I check on the website, they are also sold out on pre-owned ones and can only ship me a refurbished one. Should I wait or take the risk?
@@evhrz I got my first one a month ago. Here are some tips. BUY A NINTENDO CASE/SCREEN PROTECTOR (Not off Amazon) Next get a repair kit. Extra screen and motherboard.
@@damienbreslin6204 because it doesnt have extra controllers to be flimsy, you can play for a while without your hands cramping, and its backwards compatible
I used to have the red and black one but i broke it on accident the charger thing at my second house but on july 5 2017 I bought a 2ds blue and black now
That isn't the original screen lens for blue 2DS. The original has blue edges around screen, but this one has black. Also blue 2DS comes with blue stylus, not black.
I always had a strong dislike of the 2DS. The original design was annoying and it felt redundant. I'm glad I grew up with my New 3DS XL. That was my childhood. (Well, teenagehood would be more accurate 😐)
A lot of ds 3ds 2ds come with dust from Nintendo that's just how some came you can actually send it to Nintendo to replace the screen and remove that dust because its Nintendos fault why some of the consoles from the da line has dust under the screen

The eternal mystery: why does YT recommend your videos about 8 month late? Also after 4 videos I have the feeling that you buy everything expensive (vitatv for 200+, switch lite for 400+, even this was a good 20usd above an ok price), have unrealistic expectations (almost like wanting the power of a top-end pc or a ps5 on a device 5+ years old) and have no idea what to do with the devices besides the unboxing video (which is fair as you get revenue on the unboxings). for this video: that speck under the glass that bothers you so much looks like an air bubble under a screen protector.
You remarked that you believe that the original DS doesn't have a back-lit screen. This is untrue quite simply. The first Nintendo handheld with a back-lit screen was (as you may already know, maybe not though) the Gameboy Advance SP. It was also the first Nintendo handheld to have a built-in rechargeable battery. All Nintendo handheld systems that followed, including the original DS, had both a back-lit screen and a built-in rechargeable battery. No the backlight on the original DS wasn't as good (rather bright you may say) as on the one's that followed (such as the DS Lite) and similarly the rechargeable battery didn't give as long of a charge as the one's that followed (again, such as the DS Lite), but the point is they did still have those 2 popular features.
2DS or 2DS XL??
xl
3ds
2DS because the xl isn’t original it looks like the original 3DS
Bought myself a 2ds when my 3ds broke and at first I was hesitant about the design but I really loved it as soon as I started playing
Xl
I prefer the 2ds design
same
It's definitely unique
Your opinion I like the 3ds design
The first generation models were the worst in terms of ergonomics.

Jacob I believe you're a gamestop ambassador lol
7:07 when he actually turns it on if you wanna skip the intro
Na mate
GameStop sometimes don’t know what they are giving you.
The original DS did have a backlighting in the screen.Thr lighting started with the Gameboy Light available in Japan and then in the GB SP.
The original DS(Fatboy) had a front light (I owned one with the demo for "Metroid: Prime Hunters"), the back light for the DS didn't occur until the DS Lite(which I picked up, after getting rid of my original DS).

srry for the long story lol
BUT THIS YEAR AFTER CHRISTMAS IMMA TRY AGAIN BUT WITH A 2DS :D
wish me luck whoever you are random commenter if you see this :)
keep up the great work
The original DS did have a backlight, simply wasn't as bright as newer models. Still have my original launch DS Silver
lmao imagine if the ds a console made at the same time as the gba sp didnt have a backlght XD
My first console(s) were the original 3ds and the wii but the 2ds is still my 'child' hood
This thing costs as much as a pair of joycons XD
My 2ds is going to be 8 years old this year lol
I used to have that 2DS back in 2017. I’m 16 now.
I still have mine XD
Still got mine, and i'm 17
If u get it at a good price, that 2ds is very nice.
None of my GameStops have any 3ds models I already have 3 but still you always find 3ds in GameStop😭
Get it online lol
@@n9_ice_manyt230 I did lol
11:30 you would be surprised how much more content new leaf has over new horizons. Its got probably 3 times more content.
Hard agree! I have New Horizons but got tired of it quickly. I still play New Leaf every day.
New horizons has alot more content!!
Mario kart 7 came out 2011. You thinking of mario kart ds? Also Nintendo 1st party tend to be evergreen as in they won't ever go down really cheap (as new)
Haha, I just bought one of these from Gamestop - and they must have mixed up the order. They sent me a new PS5 controller instead.
just how? how do they make that big of a mistake?
@@devadking I'm not sure, but it was pretty funny.
Mine is still in perfect condition with no cracks so I don’t need to fix it
I saw you wanted a original DS so just to say I have one with no cracks also
I have the animal crossing new leaf welcome amiibo that I got from GameStop new and it was a display copy so they put the game in then resealed it
Lol i got my younger sister's old 2ds which had a broken lcd and i replaced it with a $38 screen from AliExpress the only issue is a little blue line that if you don't notice it seemms like its not there (this is kinda unrelated)
I'm thankful i bought my black and blue 3DS with mario kart brand new a few year's ago for $79.99
I used to have a Sea Green 2DS but the camera broke
That's a rip off not coming with a SD card didn't they come with a 4gb SD card
Mine came with 16gb
I have a question, my gamestop is currently sold out on pre-owned and refurbished Nintendo 2ds's. When I check on the website, they are also sold out on pre-owned ones and can only ship me a refurbished one. Should I wait or take the risk?
Get one. It is quite rare to come around to finding one. Get it Pre-Owned.
It came a while ago and its in perfect condition
@@evhrz I got my first one a month ago. Here are some tips. BUY A NINTENDO CASE/SCREEN PROTECTOR (Not off Amazon) Next get a repair kit. Extra screen and motherboard.
And then there’s me who bought a 2ds from eBay for £20. It was listed as broken and there’s literally nothing wrong with it
2ds only has one screen below lol
In 2015 I bought my brother a 2ds with mario kart 7 and it was only $60 new from Walmart...
Edit: it wasn't on sale btw
cause noone wanted them lmao i remember that too
@@animeloveer97 xD yeah he sold it like a year later for the new 3ds
The 2DS is still a great companion to a Switch.
How?

That isn't the original screen lens for blue 2DS. The original has blue edges around screen, but this one has black. Also blue 2DS comes with blue stylus, not black.
Nintendo sells them for 50 bucks in their store and they are like new.
What?
Well if that's true I think I'm about to make some money
I always had a strong dislike of the 2DS. The original design was annoying and it felt redundant. I'm glad I grew up with my New 3DS XL. That was my childhood. (Well, teenagehood would be more accurate 😐)
Yes it’s ugly but it’s a lot cheaper than the other systems, I’ll collect the others in the future lol
@Mrsuperking TH-cam631 2ds is ugly asf, the 3ds is just as amazing lol and not all systems have games pre-installed either.
@Mrsuperking TH-cam631 lol the 2ds missed the point of being the 3ds i prefer the new 2ds xl the design imo is the best one in the 3ds models
I used to like 2ds a lot. It reminded me of older models of game boy. But new 3ds xl was the perfect one.
I don't like that the 2DS doesn't fold, I have the DSi XL red wine colour, and the 3DS the blue one?
The new leaf update was really big its actually like 1.2 Gb
At 14:26 that’s a pitfall trap
i saw this used store in my city 2 days ago i don't like it that way
I have the Wii U and Xbox s and PS4
Gamestop likes to mix and match
Do they all not have sd cards??
Traffic Light
The analog stick is fine all 2ds sticks are like that.
13:05 how about getting it out
A lot of ds 3ds 2ds come with dust from Nintendo that's just how some came you can actually send it to Nintendo to replace the screen and remove that dust because its Nintendos fault why some of the consoles from the da line has dust under the screen
Mario kart 7 came out in 2011
Nope no scratches on bottom screen
11:36 Did he just say Mario Kart 7 came out in 2005? Mario Kart 7 came out in 2011 not 2005! MKDS came out in 2005 Lol!

Plain white box = privileged
2ds looks nice

This was such a weird console. A mistake I think.
And they accidentally made the most comfortable 3ds
It's strange, but definitely not a mistake. It's perfect for cheapasses like me and it's pretty comfortable.
Nobody with good eyes used the 3d and it’s cheaper than a 3ds
