The 2DS is the most comfortable system in the entire 3DS family. I don’t understand that chart at all.
I don't like the 2DS much at all. I appreciate what it is, and the niche it filled in the market, but I would never voluntarily use one.

The screen in the 3DS-XL is way too big for its resolution. Games look ugly and washed out on it. Pixel density is way more important than screen size.

I agree but I'll take "uglier image that I can see well" over "slightly prettier one that I pretty much can't"

the SNES classic is down to a hundred bucks from third party sellers on Amazon, so it may be a good time to buy one there if you've been unable to find one in the wild
Yeah I don't know how a Switch XL would even work, I feel like the screen size of the current switch is perfectly fine for handheld gaming. It seems like anything bigger would be kind of inconvenient.

The Switch XL is just going to be the WiiU with joycons and the dock station and one of the Directs will reveal this followed by 10 minutes of Reggie staring at you while slowly shaking his head
I would rank the 3DS much higher in comfort if games would all let me play with just the D-Pad
Something about the position of the circle pad destroys my left hand
My problem with the OG 3DS is that the bottom corners can dig into your palms. The New 3DS XL is much better in that regard. Never held any other version.
The GB Micro should be way below the actual Comfort part of the graph, that thing was way too tiny.
I didn't find it significantly less comfortable than the OG Game Boy

The Switch XL is actually just the WiiU.

I actually had a battery pack for my Game Boy. It was a separate unit, nearly as big as the Game Boy itself, but I could play plugged into the wall.
I also had a giant ziploc bag full of AAs that were too low voltage to power wireless mics reliably but could still get a few days of playtime on the Game Boy out of.
They handed out AA's like candy
All you had to do is ask to quartermaster for some AA batteries and ta da a generic box of them would appear
I would lug around a spare set as there were several people in my fireteam who would play on the GB/GBA when we had some free time

It's the closest approximation to the mad ramblings of the blind-idiot god, Azathoth, that we can find.
More importantly, the screen is an acceptable size, something I can't say of any Game Boys, Advances, or non-XL DS models
Also it looks like a Poke Ball which should raise it significantly on both axes

I am excited about the eventual switch xl
I'll have to redraw the chart to accommodate the new lower-bound for portability
What would that even accomplish
the xl just refers to the kickstand

Also like, what other portable system came in champaign or rose as colors?
In hindsight, I really wish the PSPGo hadn't been such a trainwreck because it sure was a cool design.

Sweet! I already have one!
