 [![Nothing to announce regarding first-party software](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/nothing-to-announce-regarding-first-party-software.jpg "Nothing to announce regarding first-party software")](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/nothing-to-announce-regarding-first-party-software.jpg)Other than a forecast of one million Nintendo 3DS units to be sold this year, Nintendo really didn’t talk about the 3DS during its financial briefing.

Kotaku reached out with an email to Nintendo about the future of the Nintendo 3DS, and received a response from a Nintendo spokesperson.

Wwe have nothing new to announce regarding first-party software for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. We can confirm that new software is coming from third-party publishers.

Well with Nintendo themselves not being open about titles for the Nintendo 3DS makes it sound like this is going to be the end of the road for them. Looking at the titles at Nintendo.com for the system; Only Shovel Knight: King of Cards is being listed…. (<https://www.nintendo.com/games/coming-soon/#threeDS>)
