Topic: How long until the 3ds dies?

@Ninfan
Not really.
You can find Used New 3DS XL around £150 - 200 from Amazon UK.

You can find Used New 3DS XL around £150 - 200 from Amazon UK @Anti-Matter but a brand new one is still around £300 sterling. Your from around there .Do you think nintendo will just continue with just a single console. Or what are they saying??? Do tell please

@Ninfan
Right now, the New 3DS XL model has been discontinued.
Even if you can find New 3DS XL model from Amazon UK, the Brand New cost more than £300 due to its rarity.
Better find the Used model with cheaper price.

@Ninfan I seem to recall reading that 3D-capable units were silently discontinued in the UK/EU a year or two ago; it's pretty much what's happened in North America ever since the holidays ended. Unless you can find a really good deal somewhere or decide to settle for a used or refurbed unit, everyone is kind of stuck with the 2DS and its XL at this point.

@Anti-Matter did you see I started a new thread zx spectrum thread . You should go into it and tell us about your early gaming (doesn't have to be zx spectrum)good to hear about your early gaming. Around early to late 1980s

@Tyranexx you should tell us about your early gaming too

@Ninfan
Um...
I don't play ZX Spectrum games.

@Anti-Matter I know you didn't but tell us what you played around that time PLEASE

@Ninfan I would, but I wasn't exactly thought of in the 1980s.

@Tyranexx my God what does that mean

@Ninfan not everyone here was alive in the 80s

@StableInvadeel sorry .i'm not really leaving anyone out you should play them games if you have the time. What was the Mexico goalkeepers name that played in the 1994 world cup

@Ninfan no, no, I mean, that's what Tyranexx meant with that comment, they can't talk about their "early gaming in the 80s", because they are younger than that.

I'm not sure about your other question, but probably Jorge Campos?

@Ninfan As @StableInvadeel explained, I meant that I wasn't born yet. I barely missed the 1980s, but I remember most of the 90s quite well. The earliest machines that I recall touching for gaming purposes were the NES, SNES, Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, Windows 95, and an old Apple/Mac machine at my elementary school that only read floppy discs.

I’m American so I barely know what a ZX Spectrum even is. 😆

Anyway on-topic, it’s amazing that the 3DS is still on store shelves considering that it’s only had three major retail releases this year!

I’m fully expecting Nintendo to discontinue the 3DS line after Christmas.

Wow this thread is still alive

Considering the 3DS has now been removed from the marketplace on Nintendos' websites. I would say the 3DS just now died and Nintendo is taking it to the cemetery to be buried.

Seems like Nintendo didn't mention the 3DS during its financial results briefing today.
No sign of it being discontinued one month into the new year, though Nintendo has been known for silent discontinuations in the past.
When the time comes it'll be sad to see the 3DS go off the shelves

@Toy_Link Its pretty much dead at this point. There have been no 3ds announcements in E3 or the past nintendo directs for like a year. The 3ds is dying a slow painful death.

3DS is NOT dead for me.
It's time to add more Japanese 3DS exclusives to expand my games library. 😀
