So much has been said and discussed about the 3DS price cut. Sarcastic Gamer asks: If Nintendo can't sell a hand held, who can?
Is it the end of "gaming only" handhelds?
This image basically confirms that in Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon we will be seeing an alternate story. While it has been stated by Nintendo multiple times that this was the case, they were never really clear on it.
Why in fucks name did the designs for the mc make it through the planing stages of development? They are by far the worse thing pokemon have produced.
Hey! Pikmin is brand new adventure set on the Nintendo 3DS as Captain Olimar's ship crash lands on a mysterious alien planet.
Every time I see 'released on Steam' my heart sinks. Why don't these guys release on GOG instead?
Beware Space Pirates. Beware Metroids. Samus Aran is back and she is locked & loaded.
The main reason the 3DS isn't selling well is because Nintendo still hasn't discontinued the original DS, selling it for $50 cheaper. This, along with the Nintendo DS redesigns make people think that the 3DS is just another DS only with 3D, thus only buying the DS and ignoring the 3DS. The same problem will plague the PS Vita if sony does not discontinue the PSP once the Vita is released.
no it shows a company adjusting pricing due to the econy and to boost up sales for the holidays... its that simple.
No, it means the end of 3d handheld gaming. I believe this isn't selling well because parents are reading articles about how it may damage their children's eyes. I'm not buying one because I'm not impressed with the software lineup and I'm not fond of eye strain.
economy.....i still think 3ds and vita will both be fine...despites apples success lately
Handheld gaming is definitely not over... but I think it is fair to say to get the heavy sales and compete with things like iPhone, it needs to be integrated with phones more fully!
Like the Xperia is a good idea, but it can't even play the PSP games you already own... and is not a powerful enough gaming device, which makes it seem pretty pointless, except as a step towards integration!
I like what I am seeing of Vita, but I will not be rushing out to buy it, as I will rarely use it as I do not tend to like carrying too many things around with me. But if the Vita was to also be a phone, then for me personally it would be a day one buy and I would not even consider another phone... I currently have a HTC Desire and it is a decent phone, the iPhone is a decent phone, but they wouldn't even come close to a Vita/phone!
I carry my phone with me everywhere, so to have a PSP built into it would be awesome!
