That seems to be the case; they'll do anything it seems to avoid making that generational leap above 6th gen tier graphics, and that's a real shame because the series deserves better.

It's a real idiotic move too.  They will throw a fortune at Resident Evil games despite the franchise's up and down nature but refuse to give big backing to the most consistently powerful franchise they own.

 

I reckon they refuse because it sells anyway.

Nintendo console owners just pay for it. This is easy money for them. They not only release the game like that but they keep releasing aditional content as new games instead of DLC and the fans just buy them.

They don't need to change this strategy, because it's working very well.

If that's their reasoning, they are even dumber than I thought.  I firmly believe they are missing out on 1 to 3 million more sales per game by being so cheap.  This franchise has a ton of potential for sales in the west but not trapped on a handheld.
