In Japan are they not? Quite honestly the 3DS does not get the support it should. It has outsold the Wii U, PS4, and Vita there *combined*, yet Japanese developers stubbornly keep plugging away and support even the Vita over 3DS in many cases which is a platform that has 1/4 the fucking sales base. Aside from Monster Hunter, DQ, and Yokai Watch it doesn't get the support it deserves on that basis. A lot of other Japanese devs just sit on the side line and watch Nintendo basically do all the heavy lifting. Square-Enix right now is probably thanking their lucky stars they did not look off the 3DS for Dragon Quest XI, that would have been a huge, huge mistake. And while I agree Nintendo has made some stupid hardware decisions in the past, Switch looks adequete enough to play most any modern game. It should be supported strongly rightfully so. |
For handhelds, obviously yeah. I doubt we can discuss about what support should or shouldn't the NS get since, you know, the thing hasn't released yet. Nintendo fans on a forum being excited about it doesn't represent the world. So yeah we better wait before talking about the "here and now" regarding the japanese market.
