The 2DS is a wonderful console! It plays great with just about every game. Very few titles are difficult on in, but something like MH4U would be an example of a game I wouldn't recommend on it. Too many tiny little details for the small screen and you don't have the scaling of the 3D to help things stand out. OTTHER THAN THAT ITS AMAZING. Again highly, highly recommend.
A little belated at this point, but I have to thank you for recommending the 2DS! I got mine this week and I love this thing - it's probably the most comfortable Nintendo handheld since the original GameBoy, if not the most comfortable Nintendo handheld ever. I've been using Ninjhax 2.0 to play Taiko no Tatsujin and Rhythm Heaven on it for the past few days, and it's so much more comfortable to play games like that on the 2DS than the (N)3DSXL. I've already got a bunch of SNES ROMs on my SD card as well, because somehow all of my handheld devices end up becoming SNES emulators. I wonder how many times I've beaten SMW/DKC/DKC2/etc. by now... :)

I pulled the trigger on one earlier today and am eagerly awaiting its delivery!
Congrats! If they're still available tomorrow I think I'll be getting an additional one!
