Thread: What system will you play BW2 on?

Like Soulweaver, it'll go on my trusty, dusty DS Phat. It may be old and bulky, but it's region-free and works like a charm.

I'll be playing it on my brand spankin' new Aqua Blue 3DS. But I'll still use my DS fat a bit; I do have to trade between B2 and my copy of Black. :)

I would play it on my DS lite since thats the only game system I have.

Yeah, that's what I was referring to. I was wondering that maybe since 3DS connectivity with B2W2 was so encouraged, they may had figured something out to maintain good visual quality on the 3DS without having to do the small-screen trick. But I'm guessing it's technically impossible with a regular DS/DSi cartridge.

I'd probably alternate between my 3DS and DSi. I pretty much do the same thing with all of my DS games.
Then again, the clock would be messed up.

I'm going to play it on my 3DS, even though it does mean I won't be able to trade with my White version, because the touch screen on my DS is ruined so it's quite hard to use, and, well, 3DSes are just better than DSes!

Due to region blocking, I have to play my JP White 2 on my DS Lite, but when I get the game in English, other than using the 3DS for AR Searcher, I'll use my DSi.

lol, don't you mean oldest?

No. Read it again. Yes, the newest DS series console I have. I don't have Lite or XL or DSi or 3DS. Well, it also is the oldest DS series console I have, though.

Im planning to buy a 3DS at some point so I can use Pokemon Dream Radar, so I may end up playing B2/W2 on that 3DS since Im probably only getting the English version at this point, I dont have to worry about region locks( though assuming Id bought a japanese copy, I have a DS Lite, so I could play it)

My DS Lite, since the 3DS ruins the graphics of games with sprites. I will use my 3DS for trading purposes and features that only the 3DS can unlock, though.

I will be using my DSi or 3DS. I also have an original DS but I don't think I will be using it very much because the left comer of my original DS broke yesterday to make a small hole and it still works but if it rains the water may go inside the system and make it unusable.

DSi or 3DS. 3DS for a lot of things, like Dream Radar or AR Searcher, but if my 3DS loses battery, then my DSi will be used.

I think I'll probably play it on the 3DS, but I'll press start and select like all other DS games to make the screen smaller for a sharper quality. Though I might give it a little go on my DSi just to see what it's like.

First of all, I will also play BW2 on primarily on my 3DS for Dream Radar and Wi-fi, and some on DS Lite when I don't need Dream Radar or Wi-fi (my home's Wi-fi is only compatible with my 3DS a far as the DS family goes). Second, you can make the screen smaller and clearer with Start+Select?!?!? I never knew that, but that sounds great! (as long as it's about as big as the DSi screen).

EDIT: I tried out the smaller screen thing on 3DS. I hate it and won't be using it. It's so small that I can hardly see anything in it. It's smaller than the DS Phat screen.

Dream Radar and AR Searcher are the same thing. They're just different names.

Likely my DS Lite or DS Phat, unless I decide to buy a 3DS or DSi for WiFi purposes in the future (DS Lite and older don't work with WPA2 wireless connections ;_;).
