There was another thread... maybe not on this site... that showed the historical versions Nintendo has done over its portable life and 2015 should contain some sort of 3DS revision while 2017 will be the successor.

Though I honestly can't think of what they'd revise. They have a pretty great physical styling for hte 3DS, have a larger XL and they have a 2DS for those who are younger or simply don't want clam shell design.

I'd bet 3DS (2015) would simply either be a model with better battery life and/or continued variations on colors and unique IP related skins.

It wouldn't make sense to really do anything else, unless it was another 2D variant with a clam shell format. But that seems silly as you can just turn off the 3D for the same effect.


when you say 2017, do you mean early 2017 or more around Christmas 2017?
