How large was the Wii U's library and technically how long does it take to develop games fo the 3DS vs a normal platform? Assuming were keeping up with the times development is cheaper and shorter for games on the 3DS, thereby making it less of a risk to develop for an decreases the risk of not turning a profit if the right marketing is behind the game. The Switch isnt going to have a library like the PS4 or the Xbox One nor even like the SNES. Its going to be larger than the Wii U for sure.

Wait, so your reasoning is that Switch is more powrrful than 3DS, therefore it will get less games?

I'm pretty sure Vita, XBO & PS4 are all more powerful and recieve more games than 3DS so your reasoning makes no sense.

Actually, The vita had major droughts and very few system sellers. The 3DS had a larger library of games which were quicker and easier to make. What Sony was going for with the Vita was a platform that could have powerful games on the go and because they did not secure neither eough third party nor exclusives it floudnered opposed to the platofms they deal with in a much more reasonable way. For Nintenndo that primary would be the portable and for Sony that would be the home console.

 

There is nothting incorrect about saying that HD games take longer to make. When the market is already preoccupied the busier they get the harder it is to get to secure novel games. Nintendo and Sony both need to understand these lessons on their own way.
