    Ocarina of Time is an amazing game, the 2DS is beautiful and much more comfortable to hold.

    Awesome game console!, which is a great bundle, with such an iconic look. Easier to play than the 3ds since 3d is too dizzy when you play too long. I do recommend purchasing a larger SD card however (it's easy to transfer the preinstalled game) for a 16 or 32 gb one

    The 2ds is a great way to play all of the games from the 3ds. It’s way cheaper than the 3ds and still plays all of the games for those of us who couldn’t care less about 3d. The green color is nice and preloaded with the great game of all time? No complaints here.

    Best Color Scheme for 2DS

    Given that I already own a 2DS other then this beautiful gem, I can say it is amazing, great durability for young children who have a tendency to drop things and no hinges to worry about wearing down and becoming loose. This design is also awesome for adults with larger hands because the the way the 2DS fits in your hands serves to be a more comfortable experience. Now on to the great part. This 2DS is primarily green, with a secondary Color of brown and yellow buttons, making it the ultimate color scheme for Zelda fans, that, and it also includes one of the most highly rated games of all-time Ocarina of Time. I recommend this product if you don't mind not having the 3D functionality.

    It's ironic that the 2DS would have a built in game of "Ocarina of Time 3D" but the 3D effects don't really matter. "Ocarina of Time" is one of the best games of all time (if not THE BEST) and to have it come along with the Nintendo 2DS is perfect for young gamers who want to delve into the Legend of Zelda series. The design of the 2DS is not ideal (looks like a doorstop) but for a young gamer, this product is nearly indestructible. As a collector, the colors are beautiful and it's a great item to add to any collection. Really happy with my purchase.

    I absolutely love my 2DS. I’ve had it for about 2 weeks now and I couldn’t be more pleased. The limited edition version compliments the LOZ so well and I like that the color scheme makes it very easy to see where the inspiration came from. Not to mention having Ocarina of Time already on there saves you from having to purchase the physical copy. Definitely recommend for any LOZ or Nintendo fan.

    The 2DS is great for children because the 3DS feature can really mess up their eyes. I recommend the 2DS for children under the age of 7. The color of the 2DS is green and brown with yellow buttons and being biased about anything Legend of Zelda I would highly recommend it.

    Technically I'm not a fan of Zelda series but I love the green color of the console. Also, I already own Mario Kart 7/New Super Mario Bros. 2 from the other two 2DS bundles, so why not try out a new game? I've always heard that Ocarina of Time is an epic game. Time to try it out myself.

    The DS systems are fantastic. Fun game selection, decent battery life, fairly durable. All in all a great prortable family gaming option. Love the green and yellow color scheme and the included digital copy of Ocarina of Time is a total win too.

    I was super excited to see this for sale at Best Buy so I picked up 2 of them, one for myself and one as a gift. The Legend of Zelda design looks great and we'll make a nice collection to my Legend of Zelda collection :-).

    This game was awesome on the N64. I enjoyed it so much I just had to get this 2ds system. To me this is also a collector item in the future. Purchasing this at Best Buy was as easy as breathing air.
