However, it is strange to say that since NDS is so awesome, why do we still need to develop the next generation of handheld 3DS!

This has to mention the emergence of smartphones!

Just after Nintendo's NDS handheld defeated Sony's PSP, before he could enjoy the joy of victory, he ushered in a new powerful enemy, smart mobile phone.

Although smart mobile phones cannot be considered a real handheld, it is undeniable that smart mobile phones have developed to a level of terror that everyone has. The entertainment function on smart phones has indeed replaced the position of handheld in people's minds to some extent. In the past, I often encountered young people who took out a handheld from their pockets to play for a while in their spare time. But now, I see young people who took out their mobile phones with friends to play, eat chicken or play King of Glory. Many elderly people even come to have fun and fight landlords from time to time.

A large number of blue ocean users who were once attracted by Nintendo are facing the crisis of being poached by smart mobile phones. How can Nintendo not be in a hurry?

What's more, Sony is also ambitioning and is secretly preparing its new generation of handheld consoles to avenge the previous PSP. Nintendo must launch a new handheld console that makes everyone lit up in time to deal with the crisis at this moment. Therefore, the Nintendo 3DS handheld console series came into being.

With the release of Apple's IPHONE 4 in 2010, it officially announced that smartphones have entered the era of popularization.

Although the price was high at that time, and it cost 4,000 or 5,000 yuan, the large number of game software that can be downloaded for free on the smartphone platform is really attractive. After all, when buying a mainstream game console and a similar JAVA mobile phone, the price is almost the same. However, the game console games require separate purchases, and a game costs hundreds of dollars. In the long run, it is actually a considerable expense.

The free game software provided on smartphones has naturally become the new favorite. Games such as "Plant vs. Zombies", "Fruit Ninja", and "Angry Birds" have left a deep impression on everyone. The paid-to-pump download games "Modern War 2: Black Pegasus" and "Death Space" released by game manufacturers such as GAMELOFT and EA on mobile platforms are also of masterpiece level, not much worse than masterpieces on handheld consoles. Moreover, even paid purchases are much cheaper than the price of handheld console games. It can be said that this has definitely had a significant impact on the previous traditional handheld console market.

Nintendo was not idle at this time. In fact, as early as 2007, Nintendo had already begun to list smartphones as one of its competitors, and this was the case with the NDSI launched at that time.

In the following years, Nintendo has been making preparations secretly, and it was not until 2009 that it deliberately released some news about the subsequent new models of NDS as smoke bombs. The industry speculated that Nintendo would make a big move.

On March 23, 2010, Nintendo finally officially released the news about the new handheld on its official website, but the news still felt a bit confusing, because the information about the new handheld was placed in the corner of the website at that time, which was very inconspicuous and could easily be ignored.

Although the news is placed in the corner, the content is definitely arousing the players' appetite. To sum it up, there are only 3 points:

The new generation of handheld consoles is named NINTENDO 3DS.

The 3DS handheld machine has naked-eye 3D function.

The 3DS handheld console is backward compatible with all NDS games.

After these three information was released, it instantly caused a sensation between players and the media. I won’t mention the naming and backward compatibility. It’s not enough to discuss Nintendo’s traditional art scope. On the contrary, the function of this naked eye 3D is simply so exciting.

I won’t introduce it here about what naked eye 3D technology is. Interested friends can learn about it on Baidu.

Let’s continue to talk about 3DS. You should know that at that time, this naked-eye 3D technology could be said to be very high-tech. At most, ordinary people would wear 3D glasses in the cinema to experience the shock of 3D movies. The civilian technology of naked-eye 3D is even more unseen. Even the first mobile phone with naked-eye 3D function, Sharp SH8158U will not be released until February 2011.

I can only say that Nintendo's 3DS has not yet been released, and it has already earned a lot of gimmicks for itself with just one naked eye 3D function. This is definitely the latest, coolest and most trendy existence at that time.

Of course, Nintendo's naked-eye 3D function was not researched out of thin air. If you trace the roots, you have to thank the failed VB handheld machine back then. If you don't have the failed experience of Yokoi Junpei VB, it can be said that there would not be the naked-eye 3D technology of the 3DS later.

In June 2010, IGN, a world-renowned gaming media website, released a report claiming that according to some people with 3DS development experience, the performance of 3DS handheld consoles is far superior to that of WII consoles, and its 3D graphics processor can make the game close to the screen effects of XBOX360 and PS3. This news makes players around the world feel that the performance of 3DS is absolutely invincible.

Unfortunately, this news was proven to be false reports a few days later, because just a few days later, the 3DS handheld machine appeared publicly at the 2010 E3 exhibition.

At the E3 exhibition on June 15, 2010, Nintendo brought a 3DS display prototype and disclosed the display screens of some games. However, what surprised players and the media was that the performance of 3DS was not as powerful as imagined, and it was not much higher than the previous generation of handheld NDS series.

In terms of the game screen, it is also a long way from the XBOX360.

However, although there is a big gap between the 3DS handheld and what players think, Nintendo's 3DS handheld still won the Best Performance Award at the 2010 E3 Game Critics Awards with its naked-eye 3D technology.

At the NINTENDO CONFERENCE 2010 conference held on September 29, 2010, Nintendo announced that the release date of 3DS will be February 26, 2011, and also officially announced the details and pricing of 3DS.

The details and performance are all good. If you are serious, it can only be considered slightly higher than Sony's PSP handheld console. After all, everyone has already learned about it through the prototype at the E3 exhibition, which is equivalent to getting a precaution in advance and being mentally prepared, and you can still accept it.

But the price is indeed a bit incredible. You should know that the price of handheld consoles has always been lower than the price of the host. However, the price of 3DS is as high as 25,000 yen, the initial price of NDSI is about 18,900 yen, and the initial price of WII consoles is only 25,000 yen.

On February 26, 2011, 3DS was officially launched in Japan.

The first week of 3DS sales was about 3.74 million units, while as of the end of March 2011, the global sales of 3DS were about 3.61 million units. Although this sales performance can be said to be pretty good, this is still somewhat different from Nintendo's expected sales. After all, Nintendo's own expected sales at that time believed that 3DS would sell no less than 4 million units.

Then 3DS sales began to enter a downturn too early, and the reason was just three o'clock!
