I don't know anything useful about the RPI3 specifically, but
Jun Ebihara regularly posts messages with RPI images, and I had the
impression RPI3 worked:

Also, you mentioned "7.0.2". The plan for 7.0.x is to have only
security fixes and really serious bugs fixed relative to 7.0. There is
also a branch "netbsd-7" that is where 7.0 was cut from, and it's likely
there will be a 7.1 cut from it someday. Besides security fixes,
well-tested improvements also get added. I generally find branches like
netbsd-7 to be the best blend of stability and up-to-dateness, and have
been running them on production (but not mass market customer-facing)
machines without issues. I don't have any reason to think RPI3 support
is or isn't in netbsd-7, but it seems highly likely that netbsd-7-0 is
overly conservative for your needs.
