Can you play regular ds games on the 3ds?

You can but there are some aspect like blowing into the microphone slot thing from the first DS that doesn't seem to work anymore, or for me to get around it, I'll have to dig around in some forums. But I dug out my old Sims 2 game and it worked until I got to that glitch.

Sadly you can not. But the new 2DS can, although it does not have the 3D feature.( I am not sure if the 2DS is still in the making or if it was just a joke )

I have not try but the package says that it can play ds, dsi games and ds downloadable games. SO to answer your question, yes it can. the cartridges are the same size

I believe it will work since the 3DS and 3DS games are region locked, but the DS games are not. Do a little research though to make sure because I could be wrong

Yes it can be played on the DS light DSI DSI XL 3DS and 3DS XL all of the above

no, but if yor ds isn't region locked, there's an older version that was only released in japan simply called "tomodachi collection" I've played it on emulators. it's pretty much the same thing only this version has a lot more features.

You will need Nintendo 3DS but once you have that you can play all your old games on it too.

It can be played on the 3DS, 3DS XL, and 2DS. It can not be played on any earlier systems, including any DS or DSi.

Yes, all DS games are compatible with the 3DS, but DS games wont be 3D. I use this game on my 3DS

i bought it and my son has a ds. you may have to check the fine print, b/c it may be used for all.

yes 3ds games can successfully be played on a 2ds but not a ds or a dsi those can not fit in the game slot thing

The DS would probably fit to carry around, but you wouldn't be able to play it in the case like the 2DS in the picture.

No! The 3DS game cartridge is totally different than the 2DS. A 3DS game will NOT fit into a 2DS system. You can play a 2DS game on a 3DS, but not the reverse.
1709071
Yes all 3ds games will work on 2ds. The 2ds is just a 3ds without the 3D feature, that is the only difference.

I have three children and three different types of DS "game consoles/ systems" --- a DSiXL and a 3DS and a 2DS. All DS games and all 3DS games will play on a 3DS as well as a 2DS. However the first DS we bought (which was the DSiXL) will be limited to only DS games. A plain, regular DS will not play 3DS games. The good news is, if you own a 2DS you can play any of the games offered by Nintendo and a lot of them are fairly inexpensive. A 2DS will play any of the games. A 3DS will play any of the games. Only the original DS -- or DSi or DSiXL --is limited to only DS games. Hope this helps explain.

No. Only on a 3DS, 3DS XL, 2DS, or future systems. For DS Pokemon games, try Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold, SoulSilver, Black, White, Black 2, or White 2.

Yes almost 99% can interchange only difference is on some DS games the 3D will not work

Yes it will. Just an FYI all Nintendo DS games will work in your player as well as the 3DS games, just so you know for future reference.

Yes. All 3ds games and DS games work on the xl. It is the same console, just larger.
