Anyone used one of those new 2DS? Might consider it to get playing asap.
Might be worth contacting nintendo, that sounds like it may still be covered under warranty.

Bought my brother in law the 2DS so he could play Pokemons, and it feels nice in the hands, well balanced and the buttons are great. The screens are the same size as the original 3DS, not the XL.
Only negative I have is that it doesn't fit nicely into pockets (doesn't fit in many pockets at all) and you'll need a case if you are planning to put it in a bag or with anything else ever as the screens have no protection.
