Title: Louvre Museum In Paris to Discontinue Nintendo 3DS Audio Guides

Link: https://games.slashdot.org/story/25/04/03/224...

The Louvre Museum will discontinue its use of Nintendo 3DS XL consoles as
audio guides by September 2025, replacing them with a new system.
NintendoSoup reports: For several years the Louvre has been using specially
dedicated New Nintendo 3DS XL consoles to give visitors an audio guided tour
of the famous museum. According to the museum's official website however, it
seems that the program will be discontinued in September 2025, to be replaced
by a new system. Presumably, this is due to Nintendo slowly phasing out the
Nintendo 3DS line in general, having stopped supporting repairs for the
console in a few countries. The consoles used by the Louvre would have broken
down sooner or later, necessitating a change if they could no longer be sent
in for repairs. At the time of this writing, it is not known what will become
of the unique special edition consoles that were being used for this purpose.
