Hi Everybody!!

I'm thinking about getting myself a new Nintendo 2DS-XL. It's only really to play Metroid on though so I'm struggling a bit in justifying the expense. I have an original Gameboy but sadly it's got several failed pixel columns and is very hard to use.

it occurred to me that I might be able to download and play older games on it. Looking at the Nintendo America site it looks like I can download games as old as Metroid 2 and play them on current systems. I then change region to Australia and can't seem to see the same thing, the search function disappears when I click it (possibly a function of using Explorer at work).

Does anyone have any experience with this? If I can get the older Metroid games (and other games that I have on my original Gameboy) and play them on the new DDS, I'll be very excited.
