From the Press Release:
This partnership combines Hasbro's world-renowned portfolio of consumer brands, extensive play expertise and retail reach with 3DS' powerful portfolio of 3D printing products, platforms and perceptual devices to mainstream new and innovative play and co-creation experiences at home and online.
What it really means:
Hasbro is partnering wiht 3DS to do short run custom order production, hopefully at a generous markup.
