Nintendo News: Luigi Accidentally Swaps the Colors of the Nintendo 2DS System

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!

In Chase: Cold Case Investigations – Distant Memories, players follow two detectives named Shounosuke Nanase and Koto Amekura. New information on a five-year-old explosion has appeared, suggesting the incident was a murder and not an unfortunate accident. Players will need to investigate evidence collected five years ago to find new leads, then bring in people to interrogate them. However, going astray during questioning can cause the Interrogation Gauge to deplete and the game to end.

Meet over 100 Disney characters and explore six Disney-themed worlds, including Disney Frozen and Disney The Little Mermaid, in the new game for the Nintendo 3DS™ family of systems.

Embark on a brand new adventure with Shantae, the hair-whipping belly dancing genie. When she loses her magic, Shantae must team up with her nemesis, the nefarious pirate Risky Boots in order to save Sequin Land from an evil curse. As a pirate, Shantae gains new weapons to advance her quest, slay monsters, battle epic bosses…and hopefully get her magic back in the bargain! But can she really trust her deadliest enemy?

 I reviewed this game in 2014 and this is the physical release so it's the same game that I reviewed but in cartridge format .

In Corpse Party, players take control of a group of Japanese high school students who inadvertentlyengage in a pagan ritual and find themselves inexplicably transported into a whole other space: an inescapable echo of a long-since demolished school building where a series of gruesome murders once took place. They must now evade the grasp of the tortured souls who roam the halls of the doomed Heavenly Host Elementary School, lest they join the ranks of the dead themselves.
