3DS XL or 2DS XL. The basic 2DS is for toddlers.
Also, !3ds@lemmy.world
Well I ain't much of a grown up inside so I wouldn't bat an eye.
I mean like it's actually designed with toddlers in mind regarding size, build and such. It's just not very pleasant for gaming.
I get that. Yet for a reason some people actually appreciate the small screen size and form factor. Some folks are avid users of small handhelds like rg nano or miyoo mini for their smallness.
Very small handhelds are more commonly used for simple games like for the Game Boy you pick up for a few minutes. They also tend to have nicer, pleasant build quality which partially make up for the cramped controls.
The 2DS isn't even small, only the screen is. And it's just kinda crappy and made for a child to toss around.
It's still a 3DS on the inside so if you really want it, you'll get the same thing in terms of features. But you asked for opinions, so...
