Eliwood8 Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Due to an unforeseen “incident” at the Nintendo 2DS factory, Nintendo announces that the hardware’s current color scheme will be changed. (Footage of said “incident” can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/V4JyT_fu0Bs.) Old Look: Black front with red or blue on the sides.New Look (Not At All Caused By Luigi Accidentally Entering the Wrong Manufacturing Code): Red or blue on the front, black on the sides. This new color swap will be remembered alongside other such innovations as jelly and peanut butter, or roll and rock. Even Mario approved and decided that the new look will start replacing the old one, so everyone should see the color-swapped Nintendo 2DS systems appear in stores this November. Despite all these changes, the price stays the same! You can still pick up the Nintendo 2DS system at a suggested retail price of only $79.99, with the Mario Kart 7 game pre-installed in specially marked packages. At a price like that, you could even pick up one for every young gamer in the family! About Nintendo 2DS: Nintendo 2DS comes with fun built-in entertainment options and applications to take photos and videos, plus wireless access to Nintendo eShop. The design makes it easy for smaller hands to hold. The system includes two screens (including a touch screen) and plays Nintendo 3DS games, plus nearly all Nintendo DS and Nintendo DSi games, in 2D. For more information about Nintendo 2DS, visit http://www.nintendo.com/2ds. Many of Nintendo’s most popular and well-received Nintendo 3DS games starring characters like Mario, Zelda, Yoshi and our very own accidental color designer Luigi are part of the Nintendo Selects collection and now available at a suggested retail price of only $19.99 each.

Iridium Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 It didn't already look like this? No wonder people thought the 2DS was so stupid ten years ago. Quote Link to comment

The Guardian Mew Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Really fun little ad, but "There's no play like it." is a terrible slogan IMO. Quote Link to comment
Cryptic Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I'm not sure what happened, but it made me laugh, so that's good I guess. Quote Link to comment

DLurkster Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I saw this earlier today. Good stuff. It almost makes me want to get 2D but nah. Quote Link to comment
Fuzzer1 Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 At least Mario liked it. And isn't that what really matters? Kezay 1 Quote Link to comment
Kezay Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Cute way to promote it I suppose. I like how they have an alarm system in place specifically for a reverse color warning. Guess you gotta dot all your I's and cross your T's when Luigi is around just in case. Quote Link to comment
