The Cancelled 3DS Successor

In the early 2010s, Nintendo was having a crisis. The sales of the Wii and DS were on a steady decline, and with the 3DS and Wii U struggling to get off the ground, Nintendo suffered their first annual operating loss in over 30 years. Excitement over the 3DS and Wii U was lower than what Nintendo had hoped for, with the 3DS being criticized as an underpowered system with few games to distinguish it from its increasingly popular mobile competitors, and the Wii U was being viewed cautiously due to its old hardware and the heavy focus on its tablet controller. • With the fledgling mobile gaming industry serving to potentially threaten Nintendo’s handheld and console businesses, Nintendo started looking towards a new direction for their next generation of hardware, merging their console and handheld development teams and starting work on a new DS model which could also operate as a home console. But as the 3DS took off and the Wii U failed, this concept evolved into something much more than just a new DS model. This is the story of the canceled 3DS successor, and how it evolved into the Nintendo Switch. • 00:00 - Opening • 01:11 - Background • 03:08 - Details of the INDY • 05:43 - The STMicroelectronics INDY • 09:30 - Shift in Direction • 11:29 - Birth of the Switch • 13:17 - Nintendo's Transition • 14:20 - Messages Credits • Subtitlers: • English - RedBees • Spanish - @kply09 • If you want to add subtitles, contact @redbees or @jekumakuma on Discord - you may be able to get paid for adding subtitles in certain languages! • Media used: • • Nintendo 3DS Midnight Launch Event at... • • Nintendo 3DS StreetPass Demonstration... • • E3 2011 Wii U Introduction Press Conf... • • Iwata Teases Nintendo's NX Home Conso... • • Mario Kart 8 Deluxe: Rainbow Road [10... • • Me discussing Satoru Iwata's death on... • • New iPhone 4 Commercial- Game Center • • Nintendo 3DS: Promo Trailer - E3 2010 • • Nintendo Switch - Reveal Trailer • • Nintendo Wii U Trailer (E3 2011) • • Splatoon Turf War No Commentary • • Super Mario 3D Land: World 1-1 • • Wii U - Nintendo World Store Launch E... • • Wii U - Unveiling [HD] E3 2011 • • Wii U Chat Walkthrough w/ Satoru Iwat... • RGD website: https://raregamingdump.ca • RGD Twitter: / raregamingdump • RGDWiki: https://wiki.raregamingdump.ca • RGD Discord server: / discord
