GAMES!... thats the reason. The price is right, power and marketing are standard for a succesful handheld, but it need more games from:
3rd Party Western Publishers are not supporting the platform like the Eastern guys- EA, Bioware, Activision, Epic, Bethesda, Rockstar, Take-Two, THQ and Ubisoft. All of this company are not suporting the 3DS platform with their big core franchises neither they are releasing a lot quality games (or in some cases they are not supporting the console at all!)
Just look at EA, one of the biggest publishers in the World, they have only released subpar rushed dumbed down launch titles (a Sims game, Fifa 12 and Madden 3DS) and Need for speed: The Run; where is Dead Space? where is NBA Jam? where is Mass Effect? where are Battlefield or Crisis or a Medal of Honor game?
Now compare that to a japanese developer like Capcom, with Big games like Monser Hunter TriG (and the soon to be released Monster Hunter 4), Resident Evil Revelations and Mercenaries, Super Street Figher 3DS, Project X Zone, Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney, Ace attorney 5, Ex Troopers. Now lets do this with Square Enix, we have games like Kingdom Hearts 3D, Dragon Quest Monsters: TW 3D, Bravely Default: Flying Fairy, Heroes of Ruin, Theathrytm Final Fantasy. This developers actually tried to make quality games and they are supporting big time! |
some of those games you mentioned would not be that popular on a portable console. Dead Space?? not gonna happen. Nba Jam?? that series aint that popular no more. Mass Effect, there is one on Iphone/pad, but im not sure how good it is. Battlefield will never be on a portable, not in the way we know, that is such a silly game to suggest for 3DS.

No oniyide, as I was told the other day, we should expect games like Battlefield on handhelds now. If it doesn't make it to the 3DS it's apparently because of the lack of a default second stick, and not because they've never made a Battlefield handheld game before, thus there being nothing to suggest they ever would anyway...
