Well if you are talking about this year... I am sure most are gearing for the NX handheld which should be announced next year. If you are talking about the system as a whole, then you're cray cray

Compared to regular DS the support is pretty horrible.  Not just this year, but last year too.  It's only been out for like 4 years and its like most big devs dropped it around mid 2013. 

We had pretty good amount of games coming out last year. You had Persona Q, Story of Seasons, Bravely Default, Fantasy Life and many more from third parties. Sure, it isn't as great as the DS but it's also not as bad as you make it out to be...

Nintendo right now as you post this shit






It`s official, the industry just hates Nintendo and just wants to see them burn. Even the Vita is starting to get more support and that console is struggling to fight outside of Japan.

Aren't we getting Xenoblade next week? Didn't we get Code Name STEAM last month? And Majora's Mask and Monster Hunter 4 the month before that?

Pretty sure it's been getting support, and quality games to boot.

Those are Nintendo games, and Xenoblade is new3DS exclusive, which is pretty much like having a weak next gen handheld.

Sorry, the support was pretty bad.  I like Persona and Bravely Default, but 3 RPGs aren't going to fill the drought the system has had since it was released and getting worse by the day.

Well, the 3DS is reaching the end of it's lifespan so it's not really surprising that support is tapering off


3DS = 2014-2015.  3-4 year support is dying, even though it wasnt the best before.

DS = 2009/2010 5th-6th year.  Arguably one of the best years for the system and had consistent quality game from a mass amount of devs and nintendo.

In no shape or form is the new 3DS a next gen handheld. It is simply the DSi and Game Boy Micro of the 3DS.




Wasn't this exact thread made like three days ago?

Edit: Also a weird time to be posting this when Codename Steam, Fossil Fighters and Story of Seasons came out last month and Etrian Mystery Dungeon, Pokemon Rumble World and Xenoblade 3D are launching this week. Devil Surivivor 2 Record Breaker, P&D SMB Edition, Hatsune Miku, Lord of Magna are coming out in May, etc.

Except they have big name exclusives that are exclusive to New3DS, Xenoblade.  That is pretty much a cock slap to every 3DS owner who thought they had a full handheld experience when they paid 300 for it when it launch.  Tsk tsk.
