Hello everyone,

I've been gathering info on 3DS/Vita future releases and I think it can be an interesting debate (if anything is missing, please tell me). Link to entire spreadsheet (including home consoles)

I'll just throw the link from now on (everything is here including home consoles). The titles in red are those appearing in COMG at the time of this update. (Note : I removed indies)

no!ys celceta isnt out in europe.

Ys and SMTIV both arent out in Europe

Invizimals is yet to come out in most countries.

Notice that the only 3DS games announced from any third-party are ones that have already released in at least one region? This pattern holds for Wii U as well (with only a few exceptions, most of which are games that got delayed from 2013). If it were just the Wii U, I'd think that publishers are just stopping support because of weak sales... but this cannot explain the situation with the 3DS.

I honestly suspect that Nintendo has had publishers keep all of their 2014 titles secret, for some big unveiling, or something like that. Consider that neither Sega nor Ubisoft, both of whom have been supporting Nintendo very strongly, have anything announced for 2014. A similar thing can be noted regarding Namco Bandai and Tecmo Koei, both of which have supported Nintendo quite well, and both of which are co-developing titles with Nintendo.

A similar thing could, perhaps, be occurring regarding the Vita, but I haven't paid close enough attention to determine that. But I'm pretty confident that both the 3DS and Wii U have a significant number of games set for release in 2014, but not yet announced, possibly even games set for release in the first quarter.

King of Pirates, Etrian Odyssey Millenium Girl, Rodea the Sky Soldier ....and have you seeeenn...Ironfall?


Monster Hunter 4 and One Piece Unlimited World Red WILL be localized in 2014.


And the most important 3DS game....the january Nintendo Direct.

Edit: Also, Wonderflick and that 3DS exclusive Shantae game.

(1) Yep. WiiU has been having secret 3rd party games since January 2013. i'm still waiting for them.

(2) Those publishers don't sell jackshit on Nintendo platform (or at last not that more than on Vita, where digital sales are higher)

(3) That has nothing to do with the case at hand. Those titles are paid in full by Nintendo, the contractor has 0 risk.

I did forget about Etrian Odyssey sorry. I put One Piece in likely, so yes, I believe that as well. MH4 I don't : too expensive for Capcom to run servers in the west for 100-150K sales.

And come on where are the January 2013 direct games?

Where the hell are you getting 100k-150k sales from? It'll do over 500k+ easy. Your underestimating MH in the west
