Limited Run Games has hinted at one final physical Nintendo 3DS release. As the 3DS eShop is no longer available, purchasing games will be limited to physical media.
Since its release in 2011, the Nintendo 3DS has had one of the best runs of any handheld device, and its library of titles is second to none. Nevertheless, it is no longer manufactured and is therefore not likely to get any new games.
Until April 3rd, users will be able to redeem download coupons, the sole remaining feature of the eShop that Nintendo has reinstated. Video game specialty shops and secondhand markets may be the only places for Nintendo 3DS fans to find more games. Those who are looking to declare their collection to be complete may be startled to learn that there is at least one more incoming 3DS title.
A tweet from Limited Run Games suggests that there will be one more game for the two-screen handheld. The tweet’s accompanying photo blurred the title’s cover, but commenters were overjoyed to learn that this release will round up their Nintendo 3DS wall collection.
Good night, Sweet Prince.

Although the Nintendo Switch has mostly supplanted the Nintendo 3DS as Nintendo’s portable gaming system, many die-hard Nintendo fans will always hold a special place in their hearts for the dual-screen gadget.
Fans of the 3DS eShop will, of course, be disappointed to see some functionality removed. Hardcore collectors may start seeking physical copies of titles from the 3DS’s console generation as fans say farewell to the digital shop.
