I think (purely IMO) one of the key problems is Nintendo not differentiating the 3DS from the DS enough. I've encountered so many who assume that the 3DS is just a another slightly redesigned DS. If Nintendo had more of a clean break, from the branding, hardware design, everything, I think the 3DS wouldn't be floundering so much. (Of course, more software would help too.)

Nintendo have revealed that Yugi Naka, Naoto Ohshima and most of Nintendo Japan's 2nd party studios all were working on wii play motion.
It didn't perhaps occur to them that the 3DS would've been a better recipient of that kind of attention? As it stands, it's going to be winter until the first non-port 3DS title from Nintendo (I class pilotwings as a port).

That... is an incredibly ****ty move by Capcom. They will piss off so many fans.
They really, really pushed that and treated it as a gift to fans. That isn't just going to dissapoint fans, that's going to make them downright pissed off. The game must've had a pretty small budget and was a fair way through completion. What the hell are they thinking? Even taking into account the 3DS' performance, it'd easily get 300-500k sales which a lot of niche developers would kill for.
No wonder Keiji Inafune left. What the hell is up with Capcom? Surely they must realise that they need these low budget games to ensure diversity in their range of titles? If Street Fighter and Resident Evil ever flop, they'll go under without titles like these to get some black ink in the accounts books.
This is why the Japanese industry is in crisis. Incredibly narrow sighted management who thinks copying the US will solve all their problems. Still, they'll probably be successfull in emulating such big brands as Activision, (the original) Atari and Midway....Last edited by abigsmurf; 19-07-2011, 07:52.

Nope, no Zelda CD for me yet. If they fluff it up further it'll be somewhat amusing but they've still got a week or two to send them out.
The number of cancelled/indefinately postponed 3DS titles is getting pretty large at the moment.
Crush 3D
Assassins Creed 3D
Saints Row 3D
All those hudson soft 3DS titles
My Garden
Megaman Legends 3
