Thankfully, at least recently, most devices have settled on only a few standards. And some older devices can be modded to work with newer ports. I know rhere are some mods to add a usb-c port to the 2ds, and from what I understand they're not too difficult to do.

Also thanks to the EU forcing the manufacturers (of smartphones at least) to go for the same standard

The newest law covers pretty much everything one could think of being powered by usb, and more, especially now that with usb-c it can deliver higher voltages and currents, not just 5V/2A.

Yes. I have and will be doing type C conversions a lot.
