Nintendo confirmed in a statement today to Polygon that “manufacturing of the Nintendo 3DS family of systems has ended.” The announcement comes a little over a year after Nintendo said the Switch Lite wasn’t going to replace the 3DS.

“We’ll continue to support our 3DS family of systems as long as there is demand,” said Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser at the time.

As of June 30, Nintendo has sold more than 61 million Switches.

The company sold almost 76 million units of the 3DS by the same date, according to Nintendo, making it the fourth best-selling Nintendo handheld console behind the DS, Game Boy, and Game Boy Advance.

Users could access Virtual Console to download and play games originally released on older video game systems, and watch movies or videos on Netflix, Hulu Plus, and YouTube.

Those, along with the existing library of more than 1,000 3DS games from Nintendo and third parties, will still be available, according to Nintendo.
