Cant disagree with especially recent 3ds purchases. But i will say this...
Which is worse? 3DS ⇒ N3DS OR GBA ⇒ DS
Both had about the same time (around 4 years) but GBA went straight into another gen while N3DS is in the same gen as a new revision. Difference? DS 100% stop GBA games (meaning support) and only DS Games can be played on the DS.
As for the N3DS, 3DS is still getting supported, just with an exclusive (wii port) and maybe 3-5 games down the line exclusive games. Thats it.
Is it unfair? Yes it is, but thats how alot of things go anyway and besides we dont kno wat games (if any others) are going to be exclusive. I doubt Nintendo will ignore 45mil right away, we'll see though soon enough!!!
As for the Sony comparisons, yes it is different, dont get me wrong. I just meant its not fair for those wanting a new model that cant play some/all of their already purchased software.

1. why does it matter which one is worse? just because one is less crappy does not mean the other isnt crappy, what kind of logic is that?
2. to answer your question. Im going say that this situation is actually a little bit worse. Look you either release a new console or you dont. This half ass faux new console thing is weird. They want there cake and they want to eat it too, thats not how it works. didnt really work for Sega when they were despearatly trying to prolong the life of Genesis. its just them really trying to keep the interest in 3ds up artificially.

Sega=/=Nintendo. I cant change your mind, but you'll see how smart it is soon enough with the sales its going to do. It sure wont make 3DS decline again next year :0
I dont see this as a big deal that many are apparently making it. If its not for you, then dont buy it. If you want to play Xenoblade or one of the 2-4 other exclusive games that might not even exist and dont want to upgrade, thats on you.
Nintendo isnt abandoning 3ds userbase.

i never said it was a big deal. i dont even play xenoblade on my Wii so I sure as hell wouldnt buy new hardware for a game i wouldnt even play anyway.
So what will it do sales wise? is it going to increase YOY? doubt that very much. this year or the next. Hell you dont even believe that
