I see your point. It clearly applies to MH as you mentioned. Other must be FE from IE or SMT from Atlus.

Honestly, Capcom just needs to stop being lazy with Monster hunter anyway.  The potential of that series in the west is absolutely crippled by being locked to the 3DS or any handheld.  A console iteration with real effort could be big with good promotion. 

Fire Emblem really shouldn't be the unremarkable visual display it is.  The structure of the gameplay means it should be an easy game to make a technical tour de force.  Honestly, it could make for a magnificent show piece if Nintendo spent the money and relative to other games the money needed would be nowhere near as high.

Shin Megami Tensei shouldn't be a problem.  They won't be technical masterpieces, but Persona 4 and Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE demonstrated sufficient competency in console development, Atlus should make that jump just fine.

Switch is new platform that is incomparible stronger than 3DS even stronger 2-3x than Wii U, 3DS will be dead in around 1 year, so offcorse that games like Pokemon and Monster Hunter will be done in new HD engine not some 3DS ports.

Also have on mind that Monster Hunter and Pokemon on Switch will be $60 games not $40 like on 3DS.

They will just continue with the same engines until they are ready to move on. Easy.

Yeah, basically this if necessary.

These engines aren't being pushed to their full capabilities on 3DS. Moved to hardware with greater capabilities always allows for improvments even on an old engine.

Eh, considering modders found out that most of the 3DS games are developed so that they can be outputted in HD I think they already have most of the engines ready, if they don't, they simply can ask Nintendo to borrow the BotW engine since Nintendo themselves said they will likely use again the engine of the game...

Imagine Monster Hunter in Zelda BotW engine. :)

I think Nintendo is going to scale back the number of games, but TBH, they released a crazy amount of games on 3DS+WiiU, and many of them sucked, were unfinished or should never have been made in the first place.

So yeah, I don't mind if we have less games, butones we have are better. Also, we could finally have a Zelda every 3/4 years instead of 5/6.
