Question: what is the difference between the nintendo 3ds xl and 2ds xl?
Answer: Hardware. The major difference between the 2DS XL and the 3DS XL is that the latter has an option to see 3D graphics without the need for special glasses, while the former has a conventional 2D screen. 3DS XL models are powered by an 804MHz quad-core processor that's paired with a 134MHz chip, says Pocket-Lint.
