This information comes from Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima
This graph shows the total Nintendo 3DS family weekly sell-through rates for Japan, the US, and Europe from the first week in 2017 to the second week of October. Even after the New Nintendo 2DS XL launch shown in
blue, sales of other 3DS family hardware remained stable. Week 30 shows particularly high growth, and this spike was driven by the release in Japan of the Square Enix title Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age.Even after Nintendo Switch sales began, sales of the Nintendo 3DS family remain stable, as you can see here.
