Rather than engaging in a edit war, I'm going to put a request here for a discussion on how to fix the eshop paragraph. It's not disputed that the eshop is no longer open for 3ds, nor is it disputed that the eshop still exists for the Switch. However, the way the article is currently written isn't adequate in my opinion. I think it's fair to say "the eshop was the 3ds's online....", since it's no longer in service. It was the 3ds's online storefront, and now it's not. Users can't download games from it any longer, but they could before it closed. I don't think this implies the eshop is closed all together, and any curious parties could just visit the eshop article to learn more. Darkage7 [Talk] 19:09, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
As to the lifespan parameter in the infobox, the naming implies that the data in this parameter should be a timespan, as in the amount of time the device was on sale. In this case, 10 years. "Historically" the lifespan has been the release date and discontinued date, but this feels like unnecessary redundancy. That information is already in the infobox, and presented in a more robust manner. -- RickyCourtney ( talk) 21:30, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
