==Revisions== ===Nintendo 2DS=== [[File:Nintendo 2DS.png|thumb|A black and red 2DS model.]] On 12 October 2013 in North America and PAL regions, the Nintendo 2DS was released. The 2DS is a budget model that is fully compatible with all 3DS and DS games but does not include the ability to display games in 3D. It still features all the functionality of 3DS and can be put to sleep using a slider that replicates closing the clamshell on a standard 3DS. Wi-Fi can still be turned off, though it's done via controls in the software rather than with a physical switch. In addition, the system only features a single mono speaker, unlike the dual stereo speakers on other models. When it was released a red model and a blue model were sold at $129.99 USD alongside the 3DS and 3DS XL.<ref name="nintendo2ds">{{Cite web|url=http://uk.ign.com/articles/2013/08/28/nintendo-announces-2ds|title=Nintendo announces Nintendo 2DS|last=Goldfarb|first=Andrew|publisher=[[Wikipedia:IGN|IGN]]|date=28 August 2013|accessdate=28 August 2013}}</ref> ===New Nintendo 3DS (XL)=== In late 2014/early 2015, the 3DS received a hardware upgrade in the form of the "New Nintendo 3DS", an iterative update comparable to the Nintendo DSi and DSi XL. Improvements on the original model include slightly larger screens, faster quad-core CPU, doubled RAM, and extra buttons to match the Circle Pad Pro accessory (a second analog nub and ZL/ZR buttons). Other new features include built-in amiibo support on the touch screen and an eye-tracking 3D feature that allows the console to adjust stereoscopic output based on the user's position. Much like the 2DS, the New 3DS and New 3DS XL lacks a wireless switch and can only be toggled in the HOME Menu. Several games can only be played on the New 3DS due to its upgraded hardware, although this does not include any ''Sonic'' games. Like the original console, the New 3DS is also produced in regular and XL variants. The regular model features interchangeable face plates similar to the Game Boy Micro, and received a limited release in NTSC regions. === New Nintendo 2DS XL === In mid-2017, Nintendo released a new revision of the Nintendo 2DS, dubbed the New Nintendo 2DS XL. Unlike the original 2DS, the New 2DS XL features a clamshell design much like the rest of the DS and 3DS family systems. The system still retains many of the features of the New 3DS and New 3DS XL (barring the eye-tracking 3D feature), like the increased processing power, analog nub, and the ZL/ZR buttons. The Game Card slot is still located on the bottom-left of the system much like the New 3DS and New 3DS XL systems, but the microSD card slot has also been re-located there and the system now boasts a cover for the slots, much like the [[Nintendo Switch]]'s Game Card slot. This would be the final system released in the Nintendo 3DS family and the last one to be in production leading up to the system's overall discontinuation.
