XENOBLADE WOULD NEVER HAVE COME TO THE 3DS ANYWAY! THE ORIGINAL 3DS DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO PLAY IT!!!

Honestly, the 3DS is poweful enough to run Xenoblade, considering how comparable it is to the Wii in terms of hardware, likely they don't want to work hard enough on the port though, and more power makes up for a lack of effort. Also, they mentioned other games to be announced in the future. 


I'm sure Xenoblade is just a ploy to get people to buy a new console. Nothing more, nothing less. For me personally, I have a 3DS XL and I'm not upgrading after just 3 years on the market. If games won't play on it, I'll wait it out until a true new handheld comes out and buy that. 

Discipline. It's a thing.

We don't really know that until the actual hardware specs on the New 3DS are released. It's probably a CPU issue like Iwata suggests because while the 3DS's GPU is more than capable of handling Xenoblade's graphics, I don't think it can actually run the game itself very well because the CPU's probably not strong enough to handle Xenoblade's massive open world at that level of graphical capability without a lot of chugging (and Xenoblade's world is massive).

We'll see when the hardware specs are released though.
