News & Reviews:   Nintendo 3DS

If you are a Nintendo fan, you would probably know that the 3DS console was discontinued in 2020. But it does not end there, Nintendo also announced that its Wii and 3DS servers are shutting down next April. That said, what should you know about it?

If you still play on your old Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, you probably have heard the news that Nintendo is planning to shut down the eShop in March 2023. You may have a lot of questions too if you can still play your games or not. Well, here's everything you need to know.

Quite recently, Nintendo announced the Nintendo 2DS, a handheld gaming system that can run Nintendo DS and Nintendo 3DS titles but doesn't show the 3D effect that plays when you use the Nintendo 3DS. Another major difference is that rather than flip up or down for easier portability, it is actually one piece with the normal 2 screens and controls you'd normally associate with a Nintendo DS. The screens on the Nintendo 2DS are the same size and have the same tech specs as the Nintendo 3DS but the 2DS system also builds in WiFi connectivity. According to Nintendo the Nintendo 2DS will be released in the United States on 12 October 2013. It will be priced at $129.99 (RM427).
