Forums - Nintendo - GDC Survey Shows Declining Interest From Developers in Wii U and 3DS

kind of not thread worthy, the NX has been announced and the third parties haven't been crazy about the Wii U for this whole time. 3DS has been around for 5 years itself so

The NX is in the works so it's obvious that devs are losing interest in the current systems.



                                                                                     

7%? hahahahahahaha
I know, western developers, but still, hahahaha
And no, this doesn't have to do anything with NX as "we don't know anything about it, not even Nintendo".



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile


Well, both systems are reaching the end of their lifecycles, and western developers really didn't have that much interest on those devices to begin with. Also, surprising to see mobile interest deminishing, maybe the market is reaching critical saturation.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Come join The 2018 Obscure Game Monthly Review Thread.

So a drop by 1% is much different that before lol? It i already doomed lol.

What a retarded article.

Exactly, alot of damage control. This has nothing to with NX, do you know why? Because developers dont know anymore than we do about it. Why would they be excited for it? Western developers aren't the biggest Nintendo supporters either.

Exactly. But somehow they are excited for an unnanounced console that nobody knows what it is.

Not surprising since both are near the end of their lives. I think everybody is waiting for the NX to analyze if they'll give it a try or not.

 

Developers should have an idea of what the NX will be.

Its not like they will get to know the console when Nintendo decides to reveal it, that would be a catastrophe for the launch line-up.





Nintendo isn't the real story here. VR went from 7% to 16%. Most other platforms barely moved and VR moved by nine points.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

I know, some developers already have the devkits, so... probably some of those are already making ports/games/whatever for it. As for smaller/irrelevant devs, they will probably receive (or buy) a kit close to release, or even after.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won
