I’m doing steadicam operating on a TV show. My new (to me) 2DS is keeping me entertained when waiting for the next shot.

i cannot express how much it pains me that a 2DS is now considered retro
The fact that Nintendo shut down the servers makes it retro IMO.
I feel like in order for something to be retro, then it should have to be at least 10yrs after official support has ended.
If you want me to make you feel old the hardware was released in 2013, making it over 10 years old this year.
Yep, but it hasn’t been more than 10yrs since it was last officially supported. It’s only been a few months since they fully ended official support.
While I understand your argument. I have my own philosophy for what is retro in terms of games.
For me I don’t look at the system but the games. And for games it about 10-15 years after they were first released.
Enough time that kids can be born and never see this game until now. While I wouldn’t call Pokemon Sun/Moon retro just yet. The 3ds/2ds has games on it that I would consider it retro.
Its been over half a decade since Nintendo stopped making games for it, and even longer since people cared about it.
The only time I will argue something isn’t retro is when its still on the store shelf and not in the discount bin.
Awesome! Something I always wondered about 2DS, what do you do with it when youre in a situation where you might be quickly pulling it out or putting it away? With a 3DS its easy to just close the lid and slide it in your pocket, but a 2DS doesn’t have any way to prefect its screens in a pocket or bag
If only closing it would protect the screen of an OG 3DS…
Without screen protection you’d end up with scratches of two vertical lines and a perfect circle on the upper screen, the imprint of the lower screen border and stick.
Wait, the OG 3DS has that too? My New 3DS has that problem as well. Crazy that they managed to repeat that design flaw.
Shooting on a #Red. 🤣
I didn’t choose the camera… believe me it’s not my first choice.
Story of my life. What’s your ideal?
ARRI Alexa35, with a set of Atlas Orion anamorphics. Amazing image, great weight, strong as a rock. Flies like butter. This Red camera is too light for me. I want the weight for extra inertia and balance. Second choice would be Sony Venice2 with some Cooke series.
