Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo 3DS selects are coming in october. Does this mean its the end of the 3DS life cycle?

So i went to the official swedish NIntendo facebook page, and they posted about Nintendo 3DS selects, if you people want me to link it i can.  Nintendo 3DS selects are just like Wii selects, . Games that i saw included was : Mario Tennis Open, Mario party island tour, 3 different Nintendogs+cats games, Star Fox 64 3D, Yoshis New island and Legend of zelda a link beween worlds.

About time they started making a 3D selects reprint. Can you put a link or a screenshot, please?



You know it deserves the GOTY.

If this is what it takes to finally convince people that the 3DS is on the way out, so be it. The 3DS is hitting the end of its mandated life cycle. It's pretty predictable that, if nothing else, the handheld successor will be announced next year. It probably doesn't help that repeated efforts still haven't generated enough sales to pull the 3DS family out of last place in handheld sales by a decently large margin.

I may pick up A Link Between Worlds and Star Fox at the discounted prices, at least.

YES YES YES YES YES

FINALLY, A REPRINT RUN

I can finally rest easy and get copies for Starfox 64 3D and ALBW now.
Fingers crossed Kid Icarus: Uprising is on that list as well. And, don't forget Pilotwings Resort!

Thanks. It's a shame I either own the selected games already or I don't have interest in them. I hope they put DK returns and NSMB2, I still haven't played those.

Funny how all the Nintendo 3DS selects are the worst selling Nintendo games on the system, some of them being the worst Nintendo games on the system.

^The worst selling "NINTENDO" games.  Which that's not correct either, but they're far from the best selling.

Wow, Nintendo from Sweden!! The business world is amazing xD

Mmm, interesting. There are some Nintendo 3DS games, I've seen eight of them. The only that did well in the market were A Link Between Worlds and Nintendogs + cats. Mario Party 3D comes a little bit closer of them... Yoshi's New Island overcame the million mark (DarwinianEvolution published the charts while I was writting this post) but with a Metacritic mark between 60 and 70, and Star Fox 64 and Mario Tennis Open had a lower performance...
