| Joelcool7 said: Well Iwata just recently announced more software features for 3DS. Among the announcements was the announcement that another Harvest Moon game is on the way for 3DS and so is a Rune Factory title. But the problem is Harvest Moon: The Tale of Two Towns was just barely released for 3DS this month in North America. It also hasn't been around in Japan that long either. Nintendo has been announcing other games very early as well like announcing Smash Bros before it even began development. So why did Iwata already confirm the next Harvest Moon title? I mean seriously the last one just hit the market is announcing the next one so quickly a smart idea? Is it an act of desperation? Why is it being announced so early? Whats with all these announcements of titles that aren't in development yet or so early in development usually they wouldn't be announced for another year or so? |
If anything, Harvest Moon, and Rune Factory were to build the software lneup up in Japan even further. They probably don't want the 3DS to wind up like the Wii. They want to keep the software flowing.
According to post-E3 reports from Sakurai, the Smash Bros. announcement was so that they could find a development team.
