I had been hoping to use this on a Nintendo 2DS, which apparently used to be possible (https://www.hpmuseum.org/forum/thread-12144-page-2.html).
But this page http://smilebasic.com/en/buynow/ implies that Smilebasic is not available on the Nintendo 2DS or Nintendo Switch. The 2DS is meant to run most programs that a 3DS can, but will they sell it?

The 2DS runs everything the 3DS can. The one thing to watch out for is if a game says "New Nintendo 3DS Only", which means you need a New 3DS(XL) or a New 2DSXL to play it, due to requiring the more powerful hardware in the "New" model. There is only a very small number of such high profile releases, though, Xenoblade Chronicles 3D and Fire Emblem Warriors being among the most noteworthy. So if SmileBASIC doesn't say it needs a "New" 3DS, then a 2DS (the original non-folding one) will run it just fine too. Just access the eshop and download it.
