3DS will last for 8 hours of play time per charge

The official numbers for the Nintendo 3DS are three to five hours of playing time. The number increases to five to eight hours if playing an older DS title. Compared to the 10-14 hours of charge time the DS has, this is pretty low. Haus of Mario Chief Satoru Iwata has stated that it is "inevitable that the Nintendo 3DS will require more frequent recharging than the Nintendo DS."
