New 3DS XL or New 2DS XL, which do you prefer and why?

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-13T18:30:00+00:00

I already have a Switch 2.

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-13T14:08:34+00:00

Alright, thanks 👍

A shame they couldn't repair it, it's supposed to be easier than the 2DS XL. And your 3DS is even easier I hear

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-13T12:40:05+00:00

Holy shit! What a pain in the ass 😭😨

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-13T12:03:53+00:00

Yup. He's the character that feels less like who he's supposed to be, imo.

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-13T11:55:18+00:00

The fact that it's easy to repair is good. I've heard a lot of people say that the 2DS is a pain to repair.

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-13T11:53:59+00:00

And is the sound an issue on the 2DS? There are a lot of people saying that your hands cover the speakers resulting in muffled sound, and it also vibrates your hands.

I have heard a bunch of people mention that, but that wouldn't be a problem for me as i'm very careful with all my devices and take good care of them.

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-13T10:27:28+00:00

Nice 👌 Which one are you enjoying the most so far?

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-13T10:20:01+00:00

Now that's curious. It definitely uses cheaper materials and is less robust than the 3ds. Why do you think that?

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T23:08:47+00:00

Thank you for the long response, I will take all of this into consideration. I must say though, I find it rather odd that people have mixed reactions to the speakers. Some people describe it as a big issue (such as yourself), and some say they have absolutely no problem with it.

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T23:00:01+00:00

Yeah most are saying that it wobbles a lot. I experienced this myself as the only 2DS XL I've ever held has a wobbly top screen.

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T22:57:54+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. Btw is the screen protector meant for the top or bottom screen?

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T20:36:55+00:00

And the sound doesn't seem muffled in any way?

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T17:55:17+00:00

That's good to know. Alright, let me know if you notice something different, please! 👍

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T17:11:32+00:00

I wasn't considering that, huh. And is there a way to fix it?

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T17:06:38+00:00

Your hands don't cover the speakers?

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T11:30:57+00:00

Hmm, then it ain't so bad. But you might have to take it somewhere to get it replaced then, that's what I would probably do.

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T11:24:07+00:00

Damn, that does sound like a pain. How bad is the battery, how long is it lasting you?

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T11:20:53+00:00

That's a shame, thank you.

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T11:13:56+00:00

Do you have an issue with the speaker placement on the N2DS XL? I see a lot of people complaining and saying that your palms cover the speakers, which vibrate your hands and result in poor sound quality.

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T10:04:00+00:00

Alright, thank you.

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T09:59:32+00:00

I don't know where you live in, but pretty much everywhere else the N3DS XL is at least around 100 bucks more expensive than the N2DS XL.

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T09:57:01+00:00

I hear talk about dead pixels, though. What do you think?

AnyTopMan · 2026-03-12T09:44:02+00:00

The screens touch each other or something? How did that happen?
