This assumes though that console gamers haven't already migrated to purely mobile phone games or even to PCs. For which we currently simply have no idea. The 3ds did very well in Japan by almost purely relying on Nintendo games. Who's to say the 3ds' audience is at all interested in 3rd party games? We just don't have any evidence either way.

You mean outside of like the 10-15 million selling third party titles on the 3DS? 

Maybe developers are the ones who are in the wrong here. 

The 3DS will outsell the every Sony system in Japan, even the PS2. It will outsell the Famicom, Super Famicom, and Wii. 

And that is right in the middle of the smartphone storm. 

And yet it still gets treated like a red headed step child in many instances when it comes to Japanese support. It's ridiculous really. 

If the Switch is treated the same way, fuck Japanese developers, they deserve the fate that's waiting for them which is their own greedy board of directors and investors turning on them and forcing them to work on smartphone games exclusively, because there is going to be no market left in Japan and the West is not going to be a savior for Japanese games with its weird art styles and effeminate characters and quirks either. 

Dude, seriously, make up your mind. Are you going to count western sales or not?
