Remember when people said the 3ds would fail.

And this went on to be one of the most successful handhelds ever sold.

We never did get those 3D movie Nintendo promised...

7 years later and it is still selling.

i remember when the 3DS was announced. i thought it was the most amazing shit to have ever come to gaming. and when i bought it and experienced it first hand, i was correct.

And today 4 years after it sells like hotcakes XD, Well done Nintendo!!

They should have made it clearer that this was an entirely new console instead of just another iteration of the DS...

When you think about it, 3D without the glasses is a remarkable technological achievement. And to think Nintendo, a video game company, was the 1st to make that possible. I'm still waiting for that day where glasses-free 3D is more widespread, especially in movie theatres. I don't like putting glasses over glasses. :/

RIP IWATA 😭

im still impressed by nintendo how they pulled off the 3d gimmick

"This

Me in June 2010: Yes I just got my new DSi XL!

today, the 3DS was discontinued.

Man seeing Satoru Iwata really hits hard, he was such a genuine person who put in so much effort into his work and is just overall such a great person. Rest in peace Satoru Iwata you will be missed.

Remember that the DS was before smart phones.
