The Switch is most known for being what the Wii U couldn't, a hybrid handheld-home gaming console. This is mainly due to the 3DS' lengthy list of console iterations, and should Nintendo play its cards right, the Switch Pro could cement itself as the ultimate 3DS replacement. However, with recent rumors of a console revision in the form of a Switch Pro, it looks like the hybrid handheld-home console and the Nintendo 3DS may have a lot more in common than fans initially thought. While the console survived a bit after the launch of the Nintendo Switch, the 3DS has now been phased out of Nintendo's plans, as it focuses all attention on the Switch and its future.

Come 2011, the Nintendo 3DS looked to build off of everything that made the DS great, and after a bit of a rocky launch, the 3DS eventually found its footing.

Since the Game Boy, the Japanese video game company has dominated the handheld gaming market and continues to do so today, even with recent surges in mobile gaming. It's no secret that Nintendo likes to get creative with its handheld consoles.
