The Newest console from Nintendo is the 2DS... Really?

Really? Really? Really, Nintendo? You make a new console that is "more affordable" and by doing so, you messed the heck out of it!?

So, you removed a switch, a hinge and portability... GREAT INNOVATION THERE, guys!!
Clunky and awkward looking. Sure, it's cheaper and can use both 3DS and Normal DS games, but that thing looks uncomfortable to play with. You have most of the controller on the higher screen and to use touch screen functions, your hand needs to travel all the way to the bottom screen. That distance is the difference between, beating a boss or getting a game over. The trigger buttons are part of the reason for this bad design. Wouldn't it have been better to release a more DS-Looking 2DS... Perhaps a special "Gameboy Edition"  with Special Green Tint Screen protectors as a nod to the Vintage GB. Same old DS with the hinge and everything (Except the 3D Toggle)

The only good use that I see for that 2DS is Ace Attorney!

What the @#$% did they do to Skeletor!?

Never judge a book by it's cover, they say...
We've seen Iron-He-Man... Well here's Nimonslaughtrod Skeletor!
The only thing that could make this Skeletor worse
is if he was a Rob Liefeld Design...
Seriously, that thing is a few Pouches short of being an XTRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEM!!!! 90s character...

That suit is completely impractical. He needs to turn at least his entire torso to look at ANY direction other than forward. He cannot move anything above his elbows. Arm movement at the shoulder is non-existent for him. Not only it's fugly, but it's Impractical. BTW Skeletor's Lower Jaw is Missing... just like my hopes for the DC Comics MOTU...

That video is what comes to mind when I see that Skeletor... Well, there's also Beelzeboss, but this Skeleabomination doesn't deserve it.

So far the only redesigns I've liked are:
He-Man (First version of him), Teela-at-Arms from this crossover... you can kinda see it in the pic here. Holy crap!! I've said a positive thing about Nu52 Teela!!

Now I hope that the Unnamed One does not look anything like this...
This Design is Barftastic!!
