Long video alert. I DEEP DIVE into all of the differences between every DS, 3DS, and 2DS model. This is meant as an educational video as a new buyer could easily be overwhelmed by choices. Screens, emulation, custom firmware and homebrew, compatibility, formfactor, and more are compared.

I dislike quick fire videos for this type of topic as it doesnt tell the whole picture. Everything is chaptered for easy navigation.
