Think about this; rather than investing in either handheld, especially the Sony handheld with a far worse legacy, they take a payout from Sony to stay away from 3ds(exclusivity to keep from competing with the vita version) Allowing them to watch how the 3ds does while making an immediate profit AND they make money on the CoD license they sold to Sony. Furthermore, if that game takes off they develop the next one themselves.

No loss. No risk on either platform AND immediate pr...

You forgot to put a sarcasm tag on your comment.

Without one, people will think you are series or in my case, uncertain of wether you are joking or that you really do think that...

Supposedly, the dev team was shocked at the negative reaction, so the wiiu version received an overhaul((this may have also influenced doa 5, which before hand was being touted by the producer to be going in a more "realistic" direction with the female cast)

Also keep in mind; Nintendo is publishing and aiding in development. Many of the changes and fixes are likely Nintendo advised and or funded, such as free cod.

I still find it odd that;

1) Despite yearly ds games NO ds/3ds version was made, especially with the capability to have CoD 3ds w/circle pad pro bundles

2) Despite Sony getting and Exclusive handheld CoD Activision couldn't be bothered to make it themselves, instead only granting the license

It all seems very suspicious to me...

It is actually funny; this isn't some rarity. Western games constantly break onto the charts. CoD, Skyrim and many others have done quite well for themselves in Japan. ^.^;

The support was dropped to make room for 3ds/wiiu development. Because Nintendo actually cares to support its new consoles from the start.

And if I sound mad, I'm a little.frustrated by some of the... less than logical thought processes of some stances((plus, it has been cloudy here for days... wonder if that's getting to me ..@.@;;)
Don't worry about it. ^0^/

Nintendo expects to sell around 5.5 million wiiu by the end of March. Let's pretend they can manage this: If sales maintain, we are talking about 22 million by years end, and 44 million by the end of 2014, when the next ps/xbox will most likely release against a strong selling wiiu with a deep library.

While it may not sell very well(who knows at this point) there are a couple of points to consider; 1), Nintendo is a long lasting company. They Know what they are doing, an...

Which will mean absolutely nothing as wiiu makes up for.those numbers.

Why should anyone care if PS3 crosses the proverbial finish line late? Unlike the ps3-ps2 and soon the ps4-ps3, The wiiu is backwards compatible to the Wii, making buying a Wii unnecessary. So of course the Wii will stop selling and let its successor take over, which it has been doing these past 2 years.

Considering most of them are old costumes that used to be free(from. what I've heard of the selection) I'd have to say no, not really.

You are right, except in one aspect; software support. Devs and publishers at this point will.choose the system with the higher install base and higher monthly sales to make their games for. Less games means fewer sales which means fewer games... in an ongoing cycle.

Then their is the question of wether they are even making money, with the big boss saying the expect the vita to be profitable into 2014 while many deny then taking a loss per system. If they are taking a loss, t...

@Dragon

I agree that the system itself doesn't really need a price cut. But I would like to.point out that the 3ds never sold as poorly in retrospect as its naysayers always like to tout((edit; and it is not a marginal upgrade, or else so is the vita in the same respects.)

The system sold poorly in only 1 way; less than Nintendo predicted. Of course it did; it was over priced and lacked software support, which were quickly remedied despite the media and s...

In my opinion, the ten year life cycle doesn't mean much if your competitor replicates the same effect but with their new systems that sell well from the start instead of poorly at the gate and gradually better through life.

I mean, if the PS3 catches up to the Wii in 3 years... Who cares? The wiiu is(in this theoretical situation) kicking the brand new ps4s ass and making far more money for Nintendo than the ps3/ps4 are combined for Sony.

That, and (if t...

Yeah, this is what I'm thinking.

Though I would say not to expect good title *announcements* until that point, for if games were coming then we would know of a few by now.

Galaxy 2 was a fully different game, not an update.

But then again, I can't really follow this line of discussion because of poor grammar/wording... so maybe you already know that and are trying to say something else...

The producer wanted to change things up from past entries. Which resulted in the game sucking. After receiving the horrible reception, they were stunned((hard to believe, but that's what the producer said)

This is why DoA5 was more like DoA than the team originally claimed it would be, and why the changes are being reversed for the wiiu version(of NG3). Nintendo's involvement was most likely suggested/requested to aid in this process in order to reach a decent level o...

I believe the QTEs have been removed.

It certainly seems to be much improved from what has been said, but I'd wait for a few reviews before deciding.
