It's 13 years since the Nintendo 3DS arrived on the scene, and according to Nintendo, that's long enough for it to be considered old.
This came to light in a new Nintendo Switch ad featuring Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. In the clip, we see an older teenager pack up his belongings as he prepares to leave home and make his way out into the world. As he shuffles through his old belongings, he comes across a shiny blue Nintendo 3DS and proceeds to reminisce about the times he spent playing Pokemon games on it with his brother when they were both children.
