3DS discontinued

Good Riddance

>>384036814
The *.*new*.* 3DS is discontinued.

>>384036814
I can't wait until they rechristen the Switch as "The Nintendo"

>>384036814
Anon, that's only the regular N3DS model that's being discontinued.
2DS, 2DSXL and N3DSXL are still being made.

>>384036814
didn't they literally just make the n2ds

>>384037460
Face plates not selling or something? Always wanted one for those.

>>384039867
That and America and Japan vastly preferring the XL model. Only Europe truly cares about regular and Nintendo never gave a shit about Europe.

>>384036814
>discontinued
>games still coming out and being announced on a regular basis

why do people make threads when they have no idea what they're talking about?

>>384037460
>>384040151
>damage control intensifies

I pre-ordered a New 2DS XL.

What games besies MH 4U should I get?

>>384040151
That particular model is being discounted. They're still making 2DSes and 3DSXLs.

>>384040752
>correcting information
>damage control

This shouldn't surprise anyone. Americans use only XL because they've got large hands due to strong genes. Europeans have tiny baby hands due to inbreeding and DNA dilution and need a sure grip that a small piece of hardware provides. Nintendo isn't strong in Europe like the US, so they shitcanned it. Only makes sense.

>>384040968
>“This announcement does not affect Nintendo of America territories, as the model in question was only sold in limited quantities as special offerings,” a representative told us. “There are no changes to the sales status of New Nintendo 3DS XL, Nintendo 2DS or the upcoming New Nintendo 2DS XL, which launches on July 28.”

There, straight from the horse's mouth.

Faceplates are expensive now, better cop your favorite design before they hit the $200-$300 price range the boo one is already on.

Just copped the triforce one for my black N3DS.

>>384041323
I think those sausage fingers are more of a result of the American diet than genes

>>384041889
Come to think of it, were there ever any models of the normal-sized N3DS available in America other than that Animal Crossing one?

>>384041323
That doesn't explain how the XL model is more popular in Japan, they have small everything.

>>384042201
Yes, there was a Mario bundle, came with 3D world, and two faceplates, a ugly Mario one and a yellow 8bit Nintendo character one and the Black Friday bundles that came in both white or black.

Its not the reason. No one fucking buys the N3DS. 2DS even sales more than the regular N3DS in Japan. They're leaving the 2DS as the cheap kid friendly option then having the N3DSXL and 2DSXL as the pricier option

Does this really matter? They were practically only made for the Japan market.

It makes sense for a production cost standpoint at this point of the console life cycle.


They should kill the normal 2DS also.

>>384042201
see
>>384041587

>>384042440
The pokemon red and blue bundle also

>>384042736
>They should kill the normal 2DS also.
it still sells and is seen as the cheap kid friendly option

>>384042937
Oh yeah.

The good thing about LE N3DS is that you can just buy the faceplates on eBay and no one can tell the difference.

>>384036814

>tfw you're a big time Nintendofag with a 3DS yet you're still confused as fuck about all the 3DS variations

Then again I haven't given a shit about the 3DS in the past 2 years or more.

>>384042702
there already have been to fucking many 3ds iterations
just make a new handheld already or drop it for the switch
its painful to see them try to milk the 3ds even more

>b-but they're still making the New 2.5DSiXL Lite!
embarrassing. nintendorks, have some candour

>>384040027
>That and America and Japan vastly preferring the XL model
Did America really even have a choice? I thought Nintendo only shipped XL models to America. Which was a shame since I really wanted to have faceplates.

>>384043303
whats confusing about it

OG3DS/3DSXL- Plays 3DS games in 3D. Cant play New 3DS games. Not even made anymore
2DS-Plays 3DS games in 2D. Cant play New 3DS games
N3DS/N3DSXL-Plays 3DS games in 3D. Plays New 3DS games
N2DSXL-Plays 3DS games in 2D. Plays New 3DS games in 2D.

NINTENDOOMED

Sony always wins motherfuckers

To think I wanted to buy a new 3ds for Pokémon. Kind of a silly move by them.

It was a mistake to call the "New" Nintendo 3DS the "New" Nintendo 3DS.

Even now it does a splendid job at confusing people all across the globe.

>>384044624
not really

>>384044117
they still making 3ds, they stop making the regular version now and only do XL + 2ds

>>384044858
not really

>>384036814
This thread's title is like a clickbait article.
Even the posts ITT are like that of a clickbait comment section, calling out the OP for being retarded.

People like them big, which is why I don't understand anons who think nintendo is gonna do a smaller switch, if anything data tells us they gonna go even bigger.

If I wasn't sticking with my launch Cosmo Black model I'd give a shit since I actually prefer the smaller models. But yeah, I don't really care.

>>384037460
>this clusterfuck of a naming scheme
for this reason and this reason alone i will never buy into this garbage

>>384045264
They can keep the same size, just those fucking bezels on the screen, make the screen bigger by making the bezels super thin.

>>384044792
Wierd wording on the article's part. Makes it seem like it's going out altogether. Regardless this just the first step in Nintendo focusing the entire handheld market on the switch.

Those fucktards only released the small model in bundles and on black friday, there was never a damn choice

why did no one buy the best version of the 3ds?

>>384047503
which one?

>>384047703
small new 3ds

>>384047836
there too many versions of the 3ds
its too confusing at this point

>>384043492

Where can I get some Nintendo gaming cards?

which one is the best ergonically/has the most nintendium? I have an o3ds and the rubber fell of the circle pad and the paint is peeling off the dpad and neither were comfortable to use to begin with

>>384047987
If Applefags/normiescan know what's different between each iPad/iPhone/Apple Watch model what makes you think they won't know the difference about Nintendo shit if they like vidya

dumb as shit but I ended up liking the XL good enough.

>>384041605
>No.055
I always wanted that one

Man, being willing to wait for things has always paid dividends for me, games and consoles usually drop in price so quickly over time.

But this 3DS shit is driving me insane, it's still 100 dosh even on ebay, and now the price is gonna get higher because they're discontinuing it. I've curbed my enthusiasm for the pokemon ruby remake for 3 fucking years and it's STILL 30 dosh.

>>384042882
plus the black friday edition

>>384036814
Is a 32 gb micro sd card good enough if I want to hack my 3ds?

Anyone?

>>384048438
Mainline Pokemon games do not drop much in value and usually remain near full price.

>>384036814
That's a really missleading image, only the small one is discontinued, the XL is still in production.

NONONO
BUT /v/ TOLD ME THE SWITCH WASN'T SUPPOSED TO REPLACE THE 3DS

I want a N3DS because pokemon lags on my purple midnight and I want to play monster hunter with my big brother the XL is too big for my hands but I cant justify getting a new one because mine is in perfect condition

I need to get a couple of IPS N3DS before they become expensive as fuck

fake news, only one model of the """"new"""" 3DS is being discontinued (the smaller model)

I think they want to push it to like 80million total sales then it's done.

>>384043492

They really should just give up on home consoles and go full handheld.

It's honestly the only way they're going to completely die because mobile gaming will crush them in the end.

Seppuku on that Shiggy.

How much games can I hold with 32gb sd card

>>384050458
10 - 20 maybe

>>384048958
>>384050458
3DS games are 4GB at the most. Most are like 1-2GB

>>384050458
It looks like very few 3DS games are over 2GB and some are only 100 to 300MB

>>384046462
So when were you diagnosed?

Were any games other than Xenoblade exclusive to the new 3DS?

>>384051196
SNES games on the eShop.

>>384051289
sorry guys the normal 3ds just cant handle those 20 year old games, better buy a n3ds and not just play them for free on pc or phone right guys?

The vita literally outlived the 3DS.

>>384040968

You should be ashamed of being this retarded

>>384040859
Bravely Default, Animal Crossing, Kid Icarus, Etrian Odyssey IV, Persona Q, Pokemon

>>384043492

Looking at the chart on the right and considering the Wii U has less than 1/4th the install base of the 3DS, it's not impressive at all

>>384040859

Rune Factory 4, any of the Zelda games except Triforce.

Any of the Kirby games.

For some retarded reason it doesn't work with microSDXC.

How do I transfer data from the 4gb micro ad card to the 32 go sd card? And I need a 3ds to USB cable to connect to a laptop to hack it

>>384054037
You can, you just need to reformat it into fat32

>>384050417
>They really should just give up on home consoles and go full handheld.
They just did this. It even comes packaged with a peripheral that lets you play it on your TV - like the Super Gameboy back in the day.

They call it the Switch.

>>384055001
You don't need a cable
Search amazon for a USB SD card reader that takes both micro and normal cards. All the hacks go on your SD card
