The Nintendo 2DS originally launched in 2013 priced at $129.99, with support for all of the games available on the 3DS, but playable only in 2D. The 2DS was reduced to $99.99 last year, but from May 20, its price will fall further to just $79.99.

Nintendo also made headlines earlier this week for a very different reason, when it announced a partnership with Microsoft to bring Super Mario to Minecraft on the Wii U.
