@Walkazo: The GBA revisions do feature notable hardware differences from the base model (such as a backlighted screen and the removal of backward compatibility in the Mcrio's case) and unlike the GBC or the DSi, the 2ds has no Mario universe-branded games that can't be played on the base model.

Besides, I wouldn't use the Wikipedia page. Most of the information in there pertains to the 3DS itself; only the history and the reception sections are unique to the 2DS. Everything else is already covered with the 3DS itself. Baby Luigi (talk)
Precisely. The 2DS has, apart from design and no 3D, nothing different with the 3DS. What we would get as a result would be probably something like this compared to that. Iggy Koopa Jr (talk)
