Nintendo SA has announced that the Nintendo 2DS will be available in South Africa from 14 October 2013 at an RRP of R1,499 from selected retailers.<\/p>\n

There will be two different colour schemes on offer: Black and Blue, and White and Red.<\/p>\n

At the core, the Nintendo 2DS has the same hardware features as the 3DS: dual screens with the lower a touch-screen operated by accompanying stylus; the same control layout; and wireless connectivity for multiplayer features and eShop access.<\/p>\n

The system features a fixed form factor, hence no hinged screen as on other DS models.<\/p>\n

Nintendo says that the 2DS is actually part of the 3DS family; it plays the entire library of packaged and downloadable games for Nintendo 3DS, only in 2D.<\/p>\n

Nintendo said it is designed for those looking for a more affordable entry point into the world of Nintendo hand-held video games.<\/p>\n
