| theRepublic said: @noname You seem pretty pessimistic on the 3DS. Do you think we have seen enough to warrant that? |
Yes, I do. Between sampling the embedded software, seeing much of the launch lineup, reading the Iwata Asks segments, and most importantly observing both the market's reaction to the system and Nintendo's reaction to the market, I believe we can begin to draw conclusions.
Now, things may change in the future, as Nintendo shifts course to compensate for the market reaction. This (last?) generation we saw both handhelds undergo course corrections: neither the DS nor the PSP ended the generation emphasizing the same software that they'd emphasized at their launches, and in both cases the market reacted more favorably post-adjustment. I expect/hope we're going to see something similar with the 3DS.
