<p>Production of the mighty Nintendo 3DS system has been officially discontinued, Nintendo has confirmed.</p>
<p>The news comes nine years after the handheld machine first hit the market back in 2011, introducing truly innovative glasses-free 3D tech and a fantastic library of games that would be enjoyed for years to come. The discontinuation applies to all six models of the 3DS family – the 3DS, 3DS XL, New 3DS, New 3DS XL, 2DS and New 2DS XL.</p>
<p>Sales of the 3DS have been steadily falling since the arrival of the Switch back in 2017, and Nintendo <a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/05/3ds_sales_see_73_percent_year-on-year_decline_no_future_sales_forecast_provided">failed to provide any future sales forecast</a> for the system in its recent fiscal year earnings report, suggesting that its discontinuation may well be just around the corner.</p>
<p>If you’re still thinking of buying a 3DS at this late stage and happen to see any in-stock at major stores, now will be your last chance to get a brand new console.</p>
<p>It seems fitting at this point to revisit our list of <a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/guides/feature-best-nintendo-3ds-games">the best Nintendo 3DS games ever made</a> – a celebration of the console’s finest moments. If you haven’t already, feel free to give that a read and see how many you’ve played.</p>
