As far as a port from 3DS can go for Resident Evil. Sonic Transformed and Rayman Legends actually sold well.

What i was trying to go for (but muddied with my Scribblenauts inclusion) was the kind of multiplats that usually skip Nintendo platforms, M-rated or Western games.

Darksiders apparently wasn't that great of a port at the end of the day. Nor Tekken, afaik.


I see.  You raise a valid point:

- Are the kinds of games which are bound to sell well on Nintendo platforms being ported to a higher standard; or is the fact that they're being ported to a higher standard the reason they sell better on Nintendo platforms?

I suspect the former.

I would argue that the type of games bound to sell well on Ninty platforms. Scribblenauts, Just Dance, Skylanders. Are just easier to port due to them being less graphically demanding and HW demanding. For instance im sure Skylanders is not going to be as hard to port as say an Assassin's Creed game. One is far more demanding that the other.
