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

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.

There’s a small switch in the bottom right called Sleep. When on it simulates closing the lid.
