No, he's wrong. There's no market for their handheld business model which is a different matter. Also the main problem of dedicated handled gaming in the west is not a lack of demand, is mostly a lack of offer. Most prominet 3rd party form the west aren't willing to make high quality handheld games, becuase it doesn't fit the AAA business model. |
No, there's no market for any dedicated handheld. As I said before, even Nintendo saw the writing on the wall. They released the 3DS at a time where only 35% of the US population owned a smartphone. Now it's 95%. It's no wonder that 3DS peaked in 2011, in its year of release. Different times now. And Japan accounts for 35% of the sales. What does that say about the west's inclination towards dedicated handhelds?
