Those guys usually make games on all portables and they are making games for ngp too so I don't see how thats an advantage for 3DS and it's not just who is putting games on the platform it's the quality and uniqueness of the games, like I already mentioned the games can end up being quick cash grabs, and that the ngp is going to have more innovation and uniqueness from 3rd parties 

Er, Capcom and Tecmo Koei honestly had pretty shitty DS support, yet they're front of the line for 3DS.  And Level 5 is like Japan's one real 3rd party success story this gen, their whole rise pretty much discounts everything you said about 3rd parties struggling on or being apprehensive of Nintendo systems earlier.  

You make a good point about looking not just at empty commitments of support, but at the actual games these companies are bringing.  Games like a new fullscale Resident Evil, a new internally developed Kingdom Hearts, a "dream project" from acclaimed creators like Time Travelers, the first DOA game in a half decade, a near perfect conversion of SSF4, Mega Man Fucking Legends 3, a full 3D remake of Cave Story, a new ground up Inazuma Eleven trilogy ... and you can contrast that with what's likely to be another annual Call of Duty port.  Which exactly says "cash grab" to you?  Which leads you believe the platform is likely to lead in innovation and uniqueness from 3rd parties?
