Sorry if this has been discussed somewhere else, but I wanted to know about playing the new Smash Bros on a 2DS. Will this be possible? Or do I need a 3DS? If I can play it on a 2DS, am I losing any important functionality? TIA.

I have not necessarily explicitly looked it up to find a definitive answer, but the 2DS is compatible with all 3DS games, so I would assume that you would be fine. I am operating under the assumption that the 2DS is the same exact console minus the 3D functionality. So it shouldn't actually affect whether or not the two are compatible. For all intents and purposes, the 2DS is a 3DS. I also doubt that the 3D will be utilized to an extreme in Smash, so I highly doubt that you will be missing out on anything.

2DS is a normal 3DS without 3D and that can't fold. And also has a mono speaker.

Of course you can play Smash Bros 3DS on the 2DS. The 2DS is merely just another member of the 3DS family like the DS Lite, DSI and DSI XL were for the DS and GBA SP and GBA Micro were for the GBA etc.

The only difference is that you can't turn on the 3D and that it doesn't have any hinges to fold the system up.

Thanks for the info. I had a feeling I would be fine with a 2DS, but I didn't want to make any assumptions.
