Yeah but the Gameboy line (not including the Advance series) was 12 years before the release of the Advance series. The 3DS series came out when the Advance series was 10 years old. According to that model, it is too early for the 3DS series retirement.
Technichally GB, GBC, and GBA could all be considered a part of the Gameboy line, the 3DS could be considered part of the DS line, but who really knows what they plan on doing. We now have a different president of Nintendo. The NX could change things. I am on the fence on this one, really.
They aren't canonically? I always assumed it was a continuation from the previous because they have almost the same names.
At this point late in its lifetime it's not wrong to assume that Nintendo's working on a new handheld, plus, with the Wii U going out next year (make space for the NX) it's all coming together. 3DS will definitely last a while longer than Wii U because it's a successful handheld and Ninty wouldn't want to upset them.
that always made me laught, we ALL know that nintendo start working on next console before the new is even released, they always told us when they started working on project Doplphin, Revolution, Cafe, it was always juste before the previous console was released, so yeah "NINTENDO IS WORKING ON A NEW HANDLED !" Yeah, flash news for you guys, they're working on it since 2010-2011 x).
Exactly. Which sort of invalidates all sources as being news aside from nintendo themselves.
