To get you properly hyped, Nintendo has released a New Nintendo 2DS XL launch trailer. It’s basically just a bit of basic footage of the 2DS XL, but that’s okay when a system is this sexy. Nintendo has also released a couple trailers/commercials for 2DS XL launch titles Hey! Pikmin and Miitopia. In both ads a slightly dorky mom annoys her kid as he tries to play Hey! Pikmin and Miitopia, which is kind of an odd advertising approach. Are they trying to appeal to the moms or kids? Well, anyways, the game’s till look fun! Check those trailers out, below.
Not sure what this New Nintendo 2DS is all about? Here’s Nintendo official description:
The New Nintendo 2DS XL system gives consumers a third choice of hand-held systems, one that offers pricing and features that fit between the Nintendo 2DS and New Nintendo 3DS XL systems. The new system will be available in a stylish black/turquoise color, and will use the same size large screen found on New Nintendo 3DS XL systems. As the name of the new system implies, visuals will be displayed in 2D only. The system is lighter but still packs the same power as New Nintendo 3DS XL, and has built-in NFC support for amiibo cards and figures. New Nintendo 2DS XL makes its debut in North America at a suggested retail price of $149.99.
The new Nintendo 2DS XL, Hey! Pikmin and Miitopia all arrive on shelves on July 28.
