Fri 28th Apr the issues with the switch may not be widespread, but I actually have one of them that has issues.So Switch owners get what they want with a larger volume of games and 3DS owners get to continue playing on a supported system So I imagine it's gonna be an 80/20 split between resources for Switch and 3DS. Everything else is 3rd party (and it's not just the number of games, but how small scale they are, especially compared to even one single Switch game). I mean, all they're bringing to 3DS this year is a FE remake, a 2D Pikmin, F2P Kirby and a Kirby MP game. That doesn't mean Switch won't get the majority of their focus though. They need to keep their feet firmly planted in the ground with affordable handhelds, all the while gaining back home console market share with Switch.Īt the end of the day, Nintendo has always supported 2 platforms and it doesn't look like that's changing. That would give way to Sony or someone else coming in with a cheap handheld in their place. Besides, I don't think they're just gonna abandon their staple affordable handheld market. Keeping 3DS alive via 2DS XL alongside Switch means a $150 option and a $300 option. Nintendo gets your money either way, and money spends the same nomatter where it came from. Doesn't matter if you buy a Switch, a 2DS XL, a 3DS, or whatever. Until then, they need people to continue feeding them their money with 3DS. Switch needs a few years before it can stand on it's own as the backbone of Nintendo's revenue. Fri 28th Apr I think completely abandoning 3DS is a bad idea.This is for the stragglers and casuals and kids who can't afford to buy more expensive consoles they want. I'll drop in and say hello for Fire Emblem and Monster Hunter Stories, but that's about it.īut it's smart. I just can't go back to that sub-par type of gaming experience now (don't get me wrong, 3DS gaming is great- but once you've tasted something better in every conceivable way it's hard to go back). I don't play 3DS anymore as is- and I'm certainly not going to take it with me over my Switch. I might have jumped on the new 3DS hardware bandwagon before in days past, but not now in the post-Switch launch era. Aside from looking slick there's really no reason for me to get this. Still no improvement in screen resolution. And sure, without 3D it can use that power toward games, but it won't, because all the games on the system have already released, and the few that are pegged for release this year will be compatible with all the other 3DS models, so that power will never be utilized for better looking games. It's definitely sexy and appealing (for a clamshell sub-Hd handheld, which is all I see is as now in the post-Switch era).īut aside from that.
