Pokemon, Youkai and Mario Maker were released on a very short timespam. I'm surprised there is still any 3DS left over there. Shame this happened on the verge of a new console, because this could have move a really big chunk of hardware if the 3DS was a couple of years younger and people were not saving for the Switch.

Then I guess it's Nintendo that hates the Switch by delaying its release after these blockbusters.

I still stand by my reasoning that Pokemon Sun/Moon should have been launch titles or 1st year games for the Switch. Even if they don't sell as much as they have due to hardware adoption, the Switch needs a massive installbase as fast as possible to get the attention and 3rd parties, and Pokemon would have made the trick. I'm sure Nintendo already has a Mario Maker port prepared as we are speaking, and the 3DS one was just an attempt to try and see how to share the WiiU's levels with other versions. Youkai still has to release on the 3DS because it's the only platform it's ever been (besides some mobile minigames), but I'm sure YW 4 will also release on the Switch.
