Well, I can partially agree here... While there's some obvious reasons to justify smartphone support, I don't think Japanese publishers are looking at the big picture... The smartphone market can't entirely replace handhelds in the near future at least (specially for Japan), and not giving the appropiate support to 3DS now would not only be ignoring potential profit short term from the already established install base (not to mention how certain IPs are being treated...), but also putting into question the future of said platforms... It's not like Sony has proven to be reliable here, so it's mostly in the hands of Nintendo now. And I do think the support is below what you would expect for the situation of the platform... They do suck for that... >.<
I'm optimistic about the short term support though. While I don't see this whole situation drastically changing any time soon, I'm confident there's enough coming to have a nice 2014 and 2015. Hopeful speculation of course, but as valid or more as the pessimism that others show...
