Good question, mattyboo1. I hope that they don't, since not everyone will be making the move to the newer 3ds models right off.
On a side note, I've seen some stores selling 3ds's for around $99 (no joke). So I'm wondering if they're trying to sell off the older stock for the newer models.

They didn't stop making normal DS games when the DSi came out and DSi-exclusive features were around. It's just that some of the heavier games will be made exclusive to the New 3DS. It might be that Nintendo shifts focus completely onto the new system, but third-party developers will still have the option of making stuff compatible with all systems. I don't think there's too much to worry about.

Not gonna lie, I'm starting to want a New 3DS after seeing that commercial.
As am I, I've been debating getting the regular size, but I'm so used to my current XL, I'm not sure if it's worth it tbh.

I love this commercial more than I should.
I think it's "Kyary for president".
Early 2015 from current reports.
Honestly, should've seen it coming. It's already been taken out on the 2DS. I think the 2DS also addresses a lot of other complaints (the main one being "muh games will fall out"), some in a good way, others bad. If you're really scared people are gonna scam you in games like ACNL, then you can just use the power button. Don't even have to turn the system off completely. I can confirm that that works just as well.
I posted this in another thread, but I think it's worth posting here.
On September 2nd there was a supposed leak of New Nintendo 3DS specs, found here. Take it with a grain of salt, it may just be Super Smash Bros. 4 roster rumors all over again.
Anyway, it lists the release date as March 20th 2015, though doesn't specify whether that's a US or EU date (or both). It also lists four games as being released during the launch:
- Xenoblade Chronicles 3D (N3DS exclusive)
- The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess 3D (N3DS exclusive)
- Super Mario Sunshine 3D (N3DS exclusive)
- Code Name: STEAM (N3DS enhanced, meaning it's compatible with current models as well)
Again, this is a supposed leak and may not necessarily be real. That being said, I'd love it to be real for the fact that there's a possibility to replay Twilight Princess and Sunshine on the go.

You had me at Super Mario Sunshine. Now I really want these to be true.

I WOULD CRY FROM SO MUCH HAPPINESS.
cant that corrupt the game? using the power button?

I have absolutely had enough of your rudeness, my computer made a typing mistake because my keyboard is messed up and I don't need your rude comments anymore.
Not more than the wi-fi switch would corrupt it. As soon as you press the power button and it goes to the gray screen, the wi-fi connection to the other person is lost. If it's not immediately apparent, I wouldn't mind shooting a short video of it to demonstrate.
Also, as it says, Code Name: STEAM would be compatible with current models. However, it's just a supposed leak. We're not sure if it's actually true or not at this point.
Hmm, do you think they will too selling game cards of older games such as ACNL and tomodachi life? I would assume that they would at least continue selling those. We always have eshop versions but I prefer cards, also I don't know how they will block off eshop versions to current models though.
