In response to Patricia Poon’s blog post regarding the consumer demographic of the Nintendo 2Ds, I completely agree. Even for myself, I was severely tempted to buy the new Pokemon games but I do not own a Nintendo 3DS and do not wish to purchase one. But given that this 2DS is significantly cheaper than the 3DS and still does the job, I would seriously consider buying one if my desire to play the new Pokemon games were extreme enough. The fact that they released the 2DS on the same day as the new Pokemon games, I would also agree that it is a smart move. A lot of people probably wouldn’t have bought the new Nintendo hand held device if there wasn’t the incentive of the new Pokemon game, and the other way around too.
