While the Nintendo 2DS XL may feel surplus in a Switch- and iPad-based world, it is not without its charms. Not only is this console rendered perfectly in a clam-shell design, it boasts a hearty catalogue of awesome Nintendo titles and is far, far cheaper than other modern portable console options.

Not to be confused with the standard 3DS, the 2DS XL is quite the different beast: it’s got extra processing power, a bigger screen and NFC-based Amiibo support. However, as the title suggests, it does not play in 3D – although it supports 3D titles.

Onto the deal(s), there are two available in total, both at around the same price. Deal one will net you either a black/turquoise or white/orange Nintendo 2DS XL with Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer, Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam Bros and Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate for £129.99, and is available at Argos until 25th January.
