Really though? Although I can't complain about the Switch Library so far, it's gotten to a point where I feel Nintendo is clearly afraid of making the Switch its primary portable system. The 3DS is at the end of its lifecycle but Nintendo is making it a competitor to the Switch. Make this game 1080p, and add some additional textures while you're at it, and you have a Switch M&L RPG for mid 2018. |
I'm pretty sure Nintendo is increasingly thinking that there's a market for both, and in that they might not actually be wrong.
Nintendo always looks for voids to fill (as everyone does), as evidenced by their 2DS, 3DS, 3DS XL, and recently 2DS XL, and if they think they can keep the DS line going they may very well do so. After all, while the handheld market has diminished in size they're running a near monopoly of it right now, and tens of millions of sales is nothing to scoff at.
Otherwise, they probably realize a bunch of people finally bought one for last year's Pokemon games (as Reggie pointed out it was the only platform to sell more than the previous year in 2016), and it wouldn't reflect well on them if they pulled support the moment that influx happened.
