Because it's sharing the lime light with the Switch. When 3DS was about to launch, we heard nothing about DS games. When DS was about to launch we heard nothing about new GBA games, it's just different this time around. And it's only a sign that handheld tech is slowly catching up with its console counterparts.

Also, 61 million users is a lot to lose so quick. Minds well get what you can out of them with your software right? Reggie and Kimishima said the 3DS would live alongside Switch, how long that continues, only time will tell. I'd imagine after 2017 they'll renege on that statement.

Well there was Pokemon Black and White... and then Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 so its not like the DS era ended quickly as those were 2 games of its biggest franchises. But yes I agree that after 2017 they'll renege on that statement, they just need need the 3DS until the Switch has been out long enough to be profitable.
