Nintendo has no intention of killing off the 3DS

Just because Nintendo is making its long-awaited entrance into the mobile market, doesn’t mean the company is giving up on handheld consoles. In an interview with the Washington Post, marketing chief Scott Moffitt claimed this 3DS sales are actually up from last year, and that his company has no intention of abandoning the device. Whether or not Nintendo intends to release a new handheld console is unclear, but from what we’ve heard about the Nintendo NX, the company’s next console will somehow merge handheld consoles and traditional consoles into one device.
