That was the real eShop. FreeShop was just a frontend that grabbed the games directly from Nintendo's servers. It(another program, same principle) also worked for the Wii-U.
This is a bad idea. The 2ds was made as cheap as possible. Even if you don't use 3d, get a 3ds. It has a much higher build quality and is much more solid. The 2dsXL is made entirely of plastic, even the backing support of the top screen is just plastic, meaning that if you put the slightest pressure on the top screen (like putting it in your pocket), the plastic will bend and crack the LCD. I've had my nu3dsxl for years now and its been abused, the screen is leaking lcd fluid, but its still completely functional. My brother bought a brand new 2dsxl and the top screen snapped itself within a week.
It sounds like you and your brother are spergs. I bought a 2DSXL and a spare and treat the one I use well and don't abuse it and it works just fine.
My 3ds was already scuffed because I got it 'refurbed' from eb-games/gamestop. You cant deny the 2dsxl is built as cheap as possible, and I'm not joking when I say the backing frame for the LCD is made of plastic instead of any sort of metal.
Gotta have extra chargers.
I cannot deny that Nintendo runs a business in a society.
"This ebay listing has now ended."You're the guy who was telling me yesterday that he got permabanned by ebay for getting pissy with them in e-mails over trivial issues, right? If so, too bad.

I did! Rhythm Heaven Megamix is unplayable on it, to the surprise of no one, because rhythm games never work well in emulators.
3DS has a stupid number of exclusives, plus piracy's great on it thanks to small file sizes.
I did! I also have terrible luck with the 3DS specifically, for whatever reason. I've got two completely broken ones that may as well be scrapped, and then a New that needs a replacement button board that just isn't easy to find outside of shattered screen ones, which also aren't as cheap as they should be.
The best deal I've found for a New model so far is a Japanese Minecraft-themed one on Play-Asia for $264. I don't have an issue with buying an imported one, considering I'm gonna hack it the moment it arrives, but it's still fucked that even one with normie-excluding regional lockout's still that pricey.
Had the same problem with mother 3 and the rhythm combo system.
Aw that's a good one, too.
It was great and the reason i bought my 2DS in the first place. As far as i know FBI (the hacked storefront, not the feds) downloaded the games directly from Nintendo's servers via the spoofed tickets it generated with no way for Nintendo to see that they're getting fucked by pirates. Massive blunder by Nintendo and showed once again how bad they are at anything internet and internet security.
Mine (non-XL red&white) is around 4 years old and still in top condition, but i agree that you can feel how cheaply it is made. I'm lucky that i never dropped it or anything, it looks and feels like it would shatter into a million pieces, definitly not made out of Nintendium. It's also a lot less ergonomic than my slim DS. The 100€ price was still unbeatable and it was a bundle that guaranteed a hackable firmware number.
