Nintendo is still not saying Switch is the sucessor for 3DS |
Nintendo also never confirmed that the 3ds would have a sucessor
On the other side, they actualy confirmed that their handheld and home console software development teams were merged, and that was a long time ago. That was a clear indication that they were changing drastically their development direction. Another clue is that development for the 3ds has slowed a lot, they don´t have as many projects for it as it once had. It doesn´t make any sense to support two handheld devices at the same time - but that doesn´t mean they would just cancel their 3ds projects that are near conclusion.
Isn´t the next main Pokemon game already announced for the Switch? And also the next main SMT game - a franchise that in the latest years was exclusive to Nintendo handhelds ? It´s weird to think that those signals are clear to the average consumer but not to the developers.... just weird
