While the majority of the gaming market is looking forward to things like Nintendo’s move into mobile and their upcoming NX console, I wanted to take a minute to look back. As I turn 30, I see the world around me continue to change in dramatic ways. Tech devices, while making life much simpler, tend to get more and more complicated. The days of single purpose electronics are long gone. Even with the relative success of the 3DS, with it’s online game shop and camera functionality, it should come as no surprise that Nintendo’s most successful device today is still the DS.
