To be fair, zero people could have predicted the 3DS version arriving like this. Anybody that thought it would be on PS4 was relatively justified in guessing it wouldn't come to the 3DS because we naturally instantly think of downporting and the like in these scenarios. I mean, building an entirely separate version of the same game? That isn't a particularly common choice.

Sega does it often.

Sega also has not experienced great success with that method. I also wouldn't consider often being essentially just Sonic Boom from recent memory.

Sonic Colors, Sonic Generations, Sonic Lost World, Sonic Unleashed (Wii version was different), etc.

Also Okami, Super Smash Bros. 4, etc.

So, Sonic games for Sega and new Smash, and maybe a handful of other games? That is a pretty short list of exceptions.

Also, Okami DS was a sequel to Okami, not a different version developed at the same time. And although I'm sure you could quote movie multiplats from many years ago, and some more generic move tie-in experiences, the idea stands that very few major titles are developed in this fashion.
