3DS (.3ds) is an old model format originally developed for the DOS version of 3DS Max. It is very limited, which makes it unsuitable for sharing models. It is the only model format exported by bmdview2, so is usually involved in the ripping process for several of Nintendo's GameCube games. This format has no association with the Nintendo 3DS.
3DS is not one of the acceptable model formats for The Models Resource.
