Nintendo has ceased to manufacture 3DS handhelds, according to a notice on the Nintendo UK and Japan websites. The notice states: “manufacturing of the Nintendo 3DS family of systems has ended,” (thanks, Nintendo Everything). Last year, Nintendo said it would continue to support the handheld as long as there was a market for it.
3DS launched worldwide in March 2011 and has since sold 75.87 million units, along with 384.07 million software units.
