They're fragmenting their userbase and hurting their brand image. I've never bought a console that can't play all the games released for that console, it's ridiculous. This isn't phones were you upgrade every two or three years, this is a console, and consoles should last until their true succesor is out.

 

No it wouldn't have. 20-30 dollars tops which could've been decreased as it got cheaper. It wouldn't come close to the price of the PS Vita, the PS Vita is still way more powerful than this 3ds model.


The problem is that, nintendo is seeing how there isn't much games coming to the 3ds. So they want to make/upgrade past games or new games using a better tech. 

And for your last paragraph, that guy said why nintendo gave 3ds less power. The obvious reason is price. 

So making a powerful system needs it to be expensive. For the company to make profit. 


What other companies have been accused of only re-releasing old games? It reminds me of something, wonder why

Again, not saying that it should be as powerful as the Vita, just saying that they easily could have made the original 3DS with this CPU without the price increasing a lot at all.
