Nintendo has already moved on, 3ds gets mostly low profile games, which sadly are priced at 40$ and wouldn't have been made if there was no 3ds, unless some sufferers from acute anti3dsness after switch release ( someone maybe even before that ) mean discontinuation of 3ds...
The console that will have sold 7m barely yoy down, in the year of switch while Nintendo was expecting 5m in the beginning of the year and has a great profit margin at this point of its lifetime and can work as lure for future switch purchases.
What? Some people feel that 3ds deprives sales of switch? Yeah because the people who buy the 149$ new 2ds xl now, would surely buy the 299$/339 euros switch instead if 3ds had been phased out.
P.s
Of course Pokémon us/um would have such a drop, that's what happening with third versions/sequels everytime, plus that s/m benefited from pokemon go mania and had much higher than normal sales in its first weeks for a Pokémon game, notably in Europe, whilst us/um sales will rely on legs.
In Japan showed that it has them, it remains to be seen if the same is valid in the west, which has the BF ( a week after us/um release) tradition while Japan not.
