Nintendo Reiterates It Has "No Games To Announce" For 3DS, But Says It's Still An "Important" Device
>Although the 3DS appears to be on its last legs following the recent launch of Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth, it still managed to get some spotlight at this year's E3 when Limited Run announced the Atooi Collection, featuring five games in one physical release While it's clear third-party publishers are still releasing games for the system, what's Nintendo's current feelings about the device and what exactly is the fate of the system? TIME asked Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser this question in a recent phone while he was on the show floor of E3 2019. Here's what he had to say:
> "At this point, we have no games to announce on 3DS at this show, and in fact we’re not really showing 3DS content here, because it is all about Nintendo Switch.
> "But our 3DS business continues to do quite well. Retailers continue to support both the hardware and the software. And as long as there’s consumer demand for 3DS, we’ll continue to support it. In fact, we believe it’s a great entry point for young gamers. A 2DS at $79 with a game included is a great value proposition for a young gamer coming into the Nintendo ecosystem."
>So, at this point in the life of the 3DS, the device is still doing "quite well" and the consumer demand is there for both hardware and software, but there are no games to announce for the system. During an interview with the team from GameXplain, Bill Trinen was also queried about the future of Nintendo's 3D handheld system. Here's what he had to say:
> "At E3 this year, our focus very much is Switch…partly it's just when you look at the sheer amount of content that's coming to Nintendo Switch even in just the next three to four months, we had a lot of content to cover, we filled basically a 45-minute Direct, with what I think is a pretty strong line-up of Switch games.
> "I don't know if the 3DS would have driven as much excitement for that. Obviously, it's still on sale, it's still available in stores, it's still an important device for us, but we don't have any plans right now to announce any additional games for it, at the moment."
>The two responses are surprisingly similar, with both Bowser and Trinen making it clear that Nintendo has no additional games to announce for the system at this point in time. Do you think Nintendo's finally done with the 3DS? What about third-party support, do you think it will continue on? Have you bought any digital or physical 3DS games recently?

Sad. The DS has so many little gems, whereas the 3DS has a total of maybe 15-20 games that were genuinely worth playing. Where did it all go so wrong?

Because the 3DS library relied too much of what made the success of its predecessor (Ace Attorney, Rune Factory, Professor Layton, Etrian Odyssey, etc) while barely bringing anything new on table besides a very few things like Monster Hunter and Bravely. It's well translated on /v/ by the fact the 3DS flagship titles are big enough to have their own general/threads while the 3DS general threads just died with a whisper.
It's rather ironical considering the Vita was left for dead by its own parent company for many years and yet got a larger support from third-parties and its userbase.

The 3D fetishism. Even on the occasion where fundamentally 2D games were released they were always attached to shitty 3D models to pander to cocksucking graphic whores. This is why the 3DS never managed to build a reputation for 2D games in the way that the DS was able to. It didn't help that the D-pad was placed in an unergonomic position on most models.

That would be fine if they actually released games on it. Everyone is just putting games on the Switch instead of the 3DS. Same as Nintendo. Most Nintendo fans have accepted it being dead. Even the Vita is still getting games and it's literally dead.
Either way, I'm fine with the 3DS dying. It was uncomfortable to hold for long periods of time thanks to its shape and button layout, had terrible resolution, 1 analog stick and a nipple, low battery life, weak hinges that were prone to snap, and shoulder buttons that would stop working if any dust got inside. I can't say I'll miss the 3DS. But I'll miss games like Rune Factory and Etrian Odyssey.

That's to please investors, Nintendo has been abandoning ship with the 3DS for a while now but they keep saying otherwise because it makes them look better at financial reports. Another reason might be that it still is rather popular in Japan.

I was going to say that the DS also had the benefit of seventh gen being rather long, and effectively still getting actual games post the 3DS release until 2012 (Pokemon B2W2 and Conquest being the last games I'd consider non-shovelware), leaving it active for a good eight years, but then again, the 3DS has had about the same amount of time that it could have done similar. And I feel similar as to a lack of worthwhile games myself. I'd already been a bit leery of the "3D" perk since my eyesight's fucked enough that that functionality doesn't even work for me (though I've heard it's not exactly utilized well anyhow), and being noticeably lacking in games of interest, I held off on actually buying one until I could find one really cheap and could focus on modding and what games seemed of interest. Friend actually sent me their old one for free, and I still use my old DSLite more, for better or worse.

We're also having kids growing up with moms and dads constantly on their phones, going conservative and rebelling against the trivial parents, the zeitgeist of one era is not of the next era. The new market is unknown, but it's not going to be the same market they've been dealing with.
Do you honestly think that ANYONE would adopt more then one phone game? The storage space on even modern phones are horrible and they're still not making phones for gaming. When a gaming phone that's advertised as such comes out, that's when people will actually get away with it.
Plus, shit like Pokemon GO tend to be one-off pickup and drop situations, anomalies, the public is fickle on trivial things.

2018 was the last year of the 3DS in Japan however, the Kirby yarn game is the sole 2019 title for the platform over there. The 2019's lineup for the Vita feels more impressive in comparison by taking into consideration it's no longer produced in its home country.

Blue Wing Chevalier is a remake of a Xbox360/PSP dungeon crawler from the same company (with a full version of Stranger of Sword City Revisited built-in), and admittedly the Kono Subarashi Sekai could be a (very) poor man's version of Dungeon Travelers. I would have used Labyrinth of Galleria instead if its date release wasnt pushed to Q2 2020 or SRW T if a vita version actually existed 13 Sentinels not present isnt much a loss tbh with all the red flags it raised.
That said, I was just arguing that lineup looks objectively better compared to the single Kirby game the 3DS got over the same timeframe, especially when Nintendo still pretends to support the system.

You do not know shit about what you're talking about, Konami added sim elements to their main baseball sims a while back. And ports are not remakes just because of a few new features, don't kid yourself. The vn sequel shit reminds me of the yu-no nostalgia double dipping.

I admit I didnt know they added the sim element on previous Pro Yakyuu titles, but the Vita versions were truly pulled off from the PSN store long ago hence their unavailability on NoPayStation (which directly uses Sony's servers but it requires an initial digital sale from a contributor) preventing me to actually play them. Pro Yakyuu 2015 was also very expensive as a physical cartridge even as a second-hand copy, so this didnt help either.
>The vn sequel shit reminds me of the yu-no nostalgia double dipping
Users reviews are very favorable from what I've seen, and the artstyle in this sequel is pretty good even if it doesnt really ape the 90s design. Nowhere as bad as the YU-NO remake you mentioned or also Eve 1st Burst Error on PSP

You zoomers are probably too young to remember, but the great thing about old as fuck consoles still selling was that a handful of nutcase devs would max out its limitations and end up with amazing shit not possible on either old or new consoles (see: Treasure and Travellers Tales in the late 90s). As far as I can tell the 3DS is not benefiting from this, probably because mobile phones ruined gaming.

DS had unique hardware. 3DS is just an inferior gamecube. The last full first party 3DS game: Kid Icarus, came out in 2013. And even then it was a shoddy port of an unreleased Wii game so it didn't work as well as it should have.
Nintendo didn't bother making any first party titles for the thing. And in general Nintendo has learned that it's easier to give its customer base LESS games. The average Nintendo owner will buy 1 game a month so releasing more than that will just give them an excuse to buy less games. If you saturate your market with games people won't buy every franchise like a loyal fanboy would. It would also give them an excuse to play quality titles instead.
Did anyone here genuinely enjoy playing on their 3ds when they have a giant amoled TV? I didn't. I don't hope for a successor. Nintendo can't handle to support 2 systems with games anymore.

At least it's fun to see nintendrones beg for switch ports constantly. It's like watching your dog beg, except with the dog it's cute and with the nintendrone it's pathetic.

I'm still looking for non-RPGs to play on this thing. Liberation Maiden is pretty good, but it hurts my hands after 20 minutes. I know you're supposed to take breaks and whatnot, but still.

Backwards compatibility is always a nice function, but those are still effectively games being borrowed from an early system's library, usually to help ease people into "trading up" for a new system so they still have something to play during the time it just has launch titles and promises it may or may not fulfill in a timely manner (if ever). The DS library is not the 3DS library, any more than the PS1 and PS2 libraries were the PS3's.

as far as faab is concerned, its true until proven otherwise. This sounds jaded but the world is really only what we perceive it to be. Thats why people who are really off-base seem to live in their own worlds. Most of us are rational, so our worlds have a lot of overlap. Before anyone spergs out, remember Im not speaking in physical terms.

also open to GBA gems!
I recently picked up and modded n2ds after hearing the new models can do SNES. As you might be able to guess, Ive been playing through PvZ but Im almost done with it. After is Mario Golf World Tour. Looking for comfy dungeon crawlers and sims, but any gem will be sure to have my attention and adoration. Cheers, to the games of yesteryear.

Yeah, makes sense, the psvita, ps3, vita and 3ds modding communities still have life in them, the 3ds is still alive in a technical sense, but what was really the last big thing to happen? Last thing that I really remember is the seed friendcode thing. Most of the stuff coming out is just updates to luma and twilight menu(which I've never been a fan of, flashcards are much better). DS homebrew was kick-ass and I remember all the applications made for it that turned it into a multimedia device. I also remember a smash bros homebrew game, I checked on its progress but it looks like development was restarted at some point and its playable.

I didn't know newer games used rotoscoping. I have a DS Lite but it collects dust. Basically only used it to run some emulators and other homebrew like moonshell. Just not into modern/3D stuff, I like the older games like from 8 and 16 bit era.

Of course it's an important device. My jailbroken 3DS is the best portable console, at least in terms of library alone since I can also install emulators.

Use a snap-on set of wings, they cost like twenty bucks. I agree though, for those of us gifted with huge hands it feels like holding a tiny slab of plastic and causes cramping. Fucking Nips and their micro proportions.

I don't care about your shitty 3DS, you loyalist fag, I'm talking about jailbroken 3DSes. It's like you want your 3DS to be stunted and grow up to never have friends.
