Its odd, both Square Enix and Capcom are the two companies who have shunned Vita development when they could have easily used the platform to smooth out sales from their underperforming HD titles, now both have massive restructuring incoming and multiple cancelled games and Square Enix not publishing titles unless its a guaranteed return.

That's the observation Nintendo folks make about pretty much every third party.

We all should just acknowledge that none of them have the slightest clue of what they're doing.

Pretty much, it isn't about supporting one hardware over another, the problems companies like Capcom and others are having is they try to compete on too many fronts, leaving them exposed when they have a large budget/marketing for games that don't preform. Literally the only companies that can survive in this type of market is EA, Activision Blizzard and Nintendo based on their big money software franchises.

Companies like Capcom, Square Enix (outside of Japan) and others that have big name titles in Japan which is a smaller market are scrambling to find their own golden gooses that can help them survive as development costs are raised out of control.
