Money is why the 3DS is still loved
From Nintendo’s consolidated financial statement, the Nintendo 3DS represented 51% of Nintendo’s annual revenue for fiscal year 2016/17, up from 47% the fiscal year 2015/16. With such big portion of their revenue dependent on the 3DS, it is no wonder why Nintendo is still keeping the 3DS alive and healthy.
