I think 3DS and Cafe are doomed, but I don;t fall under the categories you mentioned.

First off the DS was a success, but the 3DS is not the DS, the DS was designed around the right ideas, great battery lfe, good price, good control scheme allowing for accessible play.  The 3DS on the other hand has horible battery life, 3D is underwhelming and doesn;t really add to most games, and detracts for many, the price is too high, and the layout of the controls is poor.

In addition, while the launch lineup of the DS was weak , it was clear early on tht it would begin to move in the right direction, towarsds the types of games that made the DS and the Wii successful, the opposite is true for the 3DS, 3D Mario is a clear example of this wrong direction.

Much as the Wii followed the DS, the Cafe seems to be following the 3DS, and seems to be going in a direction that will not be  successful, Nintendo is no longer interested in fighting disinterest in gaming and expanding the audience of gaming, they are instead going to fight over the same old market that they fought over in the N64 and GCN eras, and lost.


I don't see how you can beging to criticize Cafe when you know next to nothing about it. The only information out is just rumors, and that's all it is. Rumors. They must not be treated as facts.
