3DS has had a good run and it needs to go away so that Nintendo can look forward
Also put Warioware on motherfucking Switch what the fresh hell
Nintendo has released and is continuing to release plenty of Switch games. They are looking forward and there's no need for them to shut the door on every fan of theirs that can't afford a brand new $300 console or people who still want handheld games while doing so.
ah, yes, "shutting the door". I, too, fear the day when Nintendo hits the "3DS Over" button and the 12 years of 3DS software just evaporates never to be played again

1) Nintendo is pretty notoriously bad about continuing to keep old content available at retail
2) "Anyone who doesn't want to buy a $300 shiny new thing can just entertain themselves with the back catalog" is a pretty shitty dismissal of a large segment of the market. By that same token y'all Switch elitists can content yourself with all the brand-new Switch-exclusive games. You don't need WarioWare

The only thing I want to hear about the 3DS is them sunsetting it finally
Yeah and I don't play Xbox games so I hope Microsoft cancels it soon
This is a hard stance to take after saying Splatoon can stop working because it doesn't impact you personally.
bagel is mocking maddoc's "I don't like the 3DS so I hope everyone else's 3DS spontaneously combust so the people developing for it develop for a platform I want instead" stance

Now that Nintendo's got this "Switch" thing out of their system it's time to put the focus back on the 3DS which is what really matters.
for the record, I think they absolutely should continue to publish 3DS games as long as they release them on switch as well. They do it for wiiu ports and things no one even cares about like sushi striker, there's no reason they can't do it for their core franchises.
but I find the "moral high ground" 3DS-only position pretty tiresome. just say you want the games. leave out the hyperbole and the mythical 'poor mother who could only afford a $40 used 2ds, but is definitely buying her kid brand new $40 games to play on it'
and since I was accused of being a switch elitist:
the switch is an overpriced boondoggle of a system that is, in fact, a worse version of the wiiu. the best feature it has is that you can spend $60 extra dollars to give it a usable controller
Ah yes, the bulwark of humility, claiming that people inconvenient to ones argument simply don't exist and that anyone arguing against it is just being disingenuous.
It's so fucking simple to conceive of someone finding occasional $40 purchases to be manageable while a single $300 buy is not
Do you know how daunting that is at a certain rung of the socioeconomic ladder? 300 in one go? That used to terrify me. While on the other hand, a cheap handheld and a periodic 40 dollar treat to myself of a new game is something I would have been much more comfortable with. Especially if it was for my child, for god's sake
There's no need for you to be this unpleasant about any part of this argument but you're managing it for just about all of them
Also the 3DS has been around for a long time, which is a benefit not a detriment. Maybe you bought it with a one-off bonus check years ago, maybe it was a gift, maybe you managed to scrimp and save to afford it, making a one-time short-term sacrifice with the promise of years of content to make it worthwhile. For years, Nintendo's handhelds have filled a space in games for people who can't just buy go out and buy the shiny new thing and the Switch simply can't fill that space.

How dare Nintendo still make games for a system that has five times the install base as the Switch.

I do know what that's like. I have been in that position and when I was I never thought a company was punishing me because they were making games for the new hotness. I played and enjoyed the wealth of older games that were available.
But people want to play new things. There’s a value to being part of the zeitgeist of the new hot game. Just because you dealt with it doesn’t mean everyone wants to just play older stuff.

3DS? Fuck that! Where's my WiiWare, Nintendo?!?

I would legit love if they put out a new Virtual Boy title
Nintendo should stop producing 3ds stuff because they should focus on the Switch, a console you think is bad?

Also I have been spoiled forever and the 3ds screen looks like a blurry mess to me now

i feel animal crossing is next year
Or that they hadn't ditched the superior shape when they made the 2dsXL.
i have an original,a fire emblem white one a blue 2ds a galaxy a japanese n3ds and the pokemon 2dsxl i am sadly a street passing machine when i go out
You’ll get your fucking Animal Crossing, you god damned monsters
It certainly doesn't seem to be hurting Switch sales or software quality.
But I'm mad at the 3DS because I want Warioware to come out on the Switch
I would be pretty alright with this
A lot more jokes land in the back half of the game too.

Oh, so would you say... message received?

the fact that we didnt get this stateside is a crime and the only reason I waited and got a new 2ds XL instead

I think that is why the next SSB already has everything included.
