@NoirSon as a fighting game fanatic I was aware of that, thats why I typed "awhile" as in the last actual real DOA game was a 360 launch game. Since then its been subpar volleyball games, just found it interesting that it would release on 3DS is all. Nintendo systems have not been know for being fighting game friendly (that might change)

Nintendo used to be known for fighters too, though that changed with the N64 controller.  I think Street Fighter II for the Super Nintendo is still the best selling fighting game on a console at 6.3 million copies sold, Street Fighter II Turbo (SNES) sold 4.1 million copies. - source

Super Smash Brothers Brawl is at 9.61 million and Melee sold about 7 million..

I'll grant they're not a conventional fighter but it still supports your point in that Nintendo has and can still support fighting games.
