They did actually state that the 3ds was going nowhere in 2018 and beyond but i don't believe them about the "beyond" part. That's why i believe it will be discontinued in late 2018. Of course, if they hang it out even longer, then that makes much of my post pretty moot anyway.

 

When you say discontinue do you mean stop making and selling in stores? I don't think that's gonna happen until Switch is $199 at the earliest. 3DS still has a niche as the cheap portable, and even if it's not getting new 1st party games anymore, it's amassed a strong library that should keep it afloat a while longer.

The Animal Crossing team in Nintendo is also the splatoon team. 

 

I've heard this a lot, but as I recall they are two seperate teams. Some (not all) Animal Crossing people joined with others to form the Splatoon team.
