Part of problem are the big Japanese developers are not supporting the 3DS with same confidence as the DS or GBA in favor of putting the games on phones.

seriously, Sonic always has a handheld series, but not with 3DS. Where is the real castlevanias at? Why does SE need to have their teeth pulled to bring their games over all of sudden when we drowing in their games in the last 2 gens. That is just a few examples.

Hope it fails so we can just get a Nintendo Smartphone. Handhelds are a dead technology in my opinion.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Yeah, the days 3DS domination are over

What happened: Smartphones and Tablets happened and extremely shrunk the 3DS's potential market, some people thought the 3DS would be immune against what (between other issues) made the Vita fail, well turns out it isn't. Nintendos software helped it from doing as bad as the Vita, but that couldn't stop the inevitable either.

What can they do: Nothing, pretty much. It's all downhill for the 3DS from here on out, titles like Smash and Pokemon will give some sales bumps, but overall the 3DS is just going to continue declining over the next years.

All three Lords of Shadow games were better than the last seven out of eight CV games I've played(by date of release,) haven't played the eight, the eShop only The Castlevania Adventure remake.

Mirror of Fate is an amazing game that gets overlooked because it's a Lords of Shadow and not a Castlevania.  I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a good 3DS game, or if you own a PS360 or PC, those systems too.

I wouldn't say dead per se, but it would be a smart idea if Nintendo can make a smartphone that combines their games but also has features that can compete with the iPhone. They would have to REALLY play their cards right and make options for little kids whose parents don't want to add them to their contract.

I would be thrilled to give up my iphone for a Nintendo Phone.
