OT lets be real handheld are becoming less important in the west. Doesnt help that nothing of significance has released here, doesnt mean you cant still enjoy it. I know i am.


I think that is kind-off a two sided issue. If there would be quality western game support for them, I doubt that handhelds wouldent sell. Handhelds where way to reliant on Japanese software for the last decade, and untill some massive western, handheld IPs come around, I doubt the sittuation will change. Never the less, I doubt that they wil ceese to exist. They will only have lower sales, but probably higher sw attach rates.


Last decade? Handhelds have ALWAYS been reliant on Japanese software. Fact is Western devs never really gave a damn long before smartphones and tablets were a thing. If western devs didnt really care when Handhelds were at there peak they surely will not care now. They wont go away, Japan alone will keep them afloat since they seem to be only region to really care. But i wouldnt be surprised in the future they dont leave Japan


There are some Western Developers that make exclusives for 3DS, unlike previous Generations.

But yeah, most Western Devs just care about HD Video Game Systems. The only type of Western Exclusives I ever seem to see on the 3DS would be games like Gunman Clive 2 & Mutant Mudds 2 & the App; Colors! 3D & Spy Hunter & Batman Arkham Origins 2 &.....well, you get the idea of what kind of Western Exclusives the 3DS gets.
