Not entirely true. I wouldn’t want to get a Switch for a kid (say 7-10). It’s so easily broken and is way too expensive. The DS line is perfect for kids. It’s relatively cheap for if it gets broken, it’s built sturdier, the clamshell design makes it easier to move around as well as prevent damage to the screen, and…

You do realize there is a slider on the 3DS, with which you can disable the 3D effect, yes? The 3D effect is fantastic on many games, but you never were forced to use it if you didn’t want to.

Isn’t a 2DS with hinges a... DS?

Neither works for me but anecdotally I have heard that Google accounts work with less frequency, yeah.

Yeah it’s dissappointing, but the lack of classic pokemon mechanics kind of killed my desire to keep trying when it’s buggy. The second pokemon I caught the pokeball just stood there and the app crashed. It’s kind of sad too, because the camera on + pokemon feature seemed like the crazy speculative wish, while they…
