Should cover all the bases. Link to comment

You can turn the 3d off on the 3DS, although the 2DS will be a bit cheaper. It is however, made for an 8 year old to hold. Because it doesn't have the hinges and the buttons are on the same plane as the main screen, you'll either be holding it with your arms bent or wrists vertically/slanted and looking at it straight forward which will make your wrists/arms a bit sore after a while or holding it with them horizontally which will require you to look down and strain your neck after a while.

Don't worry. You will have plenty of practice holding a controller like that. The Wii U's controler has EXACTLY the same layout. As did the GBA. Those two systems feel fine to hold so I cant imagine the 2DS is any worse. Actually, I always felt the GBA style layout was better because you have a larger grip area and don't have to hold the thin edges of the system. Link to comment
