Is the Nintendo Web Framework a native tool? If so, why the heck would they want to get rid of that? It's the easiest way to intergrate gamepad functionality and the easiest way to develop with software like Construct.

The question was whether they'd essentially start outsourcing the development of tools and the like, and begin relying more on middleware. If there's something that does Web Framework's job, they might consider it now more than they did in the past.

A console without native tools is ridiculous. How are people supposed to optimize?
