Xenoblade (port?) _exclusive_ for new 3ds (no "old" 3ds)

It's not that simple though. They may develop new games solely for the New 3DS in the future as well for the sake of giving people more reason to buy it, and not just ports that technically couldn't work on the old hardware. Games that if the New 3DS didn't exist, would have developed it to run on the old 3DS instead.

I don't see anyone complaining about next gen exclusive games  which would be able to run just fine on last gen. Sure with some graphical downgrades but they would run. In fact a lot of people are embracing games that only run on newer consoles without being bogged down by old consoles' weaknesses.

Of course I do understand why people are upset but it's hard for me to feel the same way. Probably because I have money.

Maybe because last gen systems aren't only 3 years old and it was well known they were getting close to the end of the gen cycle ?
