We can’t end the day without highlighting the 3DS, which is celebrating another anniversary. The portable system originally launched in Japan on February 26, 2011. It would release in other regions about a month later.

Though it’s been around for many years, 3DS has certainly showed staying power. It hasn’t sold quite as well as the DS, but it’s done very well on its own right. The handheld is home to many classics and fantastic games, and we can’t forget about the many revisions it has seen over the many years. We started out with just the 3DS, but Nintendo has also launched the 3DS XL, 2DS, New 3DS, New 3DS XL, and New 2DS XL. It’s been a wild ride.

Here’s to you, 3DS! Thanks for all of the gaming memories.
