Here’s what Mojang had to say on Minecraft.net:
Quote:Just a few months after we brought Minecraft to Nintendo Switch, we’re double-dipping with the big N to bring the game to the New Nintendo 3DS series. Whatever next, an N64 port? Get on it, Jens! […] That dual screen setup helps make crafting easier than ever, with quicker access to your inventory and a handy map on the touch screen, perfect for charting out your worlds.
