It's not like the hardware design teams are also software development teams... now that they've finished working on 3DS and Wii U, they're likely already discussing future consoles, be they redesigns or successors.

But yeah, development will start to pick up now that most Nintendo dev studios have experience developing for 3DS, and are getting experience making Wii U games.

Still. Billions of dollars and time was being spent on these two recent systems. I am sure they are working on other things all the time. But you have to admit that they should have much more free recourses for a while. Freed up money, etc.  Plus when the higher ups are rushed and pressed for money they press others to get games out to make that money and to keep people interested. Not saying anything has been rushed, just saying that things should be less stressful over at Nintendo these days.

and yet hardware still does not equal software.

so if the number of game software developers today equals the number of software developers yesterday + 0...
