It's because 3DS is getting old and has saturated the market. There is a lack of new buyers around to buy games.

They may also not be advertising adequately and trying to just coast on the success of previous games. Just a guess though as I obviously know little about advertising in Japan.

Good debut for EOV. Did much better than EOU2(which is a bummer because EOU2 was waaaaaaaaay better than EOU)

Good debut for fusions as well. Long as it has decent legs it should make nice bit of cash(localize pls Bamco)

Puzzle and dragons doing meh. Probably decent compared to its budget because digital sales are doing good as well but nowhere near what Z did.

Pokemon continues to be boosted by GO and minecraft, Splatoon, Kirby refuse to die.

Dynasty warriors flopped pretty bad though. 6K is...ouch.n

Yokai watch 3 probably hitting a million total next week

Whoa puzzles and dragons X did way less than I expected...they better localize it.

Coming west digital only in 2022

@ShadJV

Spring 2017 could be as early as April.

The game might already be done or in the final stages of development. Sometimes games are sat on even if completed for awhile so they can release it at a time they think will seller better or not conflict with other games.

Genuinely disgusted that this garbage got anything more than a 1/10.

How many games does Kemco have to port?

Feels like we get one every other week.

Oooh a roguelike!

@Megumi_Sagano

Yeah I facepalmed pretty hard when I saw that part.

@filterclay

Well aside from the untold games they always has either FM or orchestrated as the standard(1-3 FM 4-5 Orchestrated)

Untold only had both because they were remakes and the FM already existed. They have always made only one new or remastered set of tracks per game,

Capcom better bring this and all the amiiboes over.

Also Amiibo for MH5 please. I want a shelf full of badass monsters.

Ambition of the slimes is being localized actually.

http://nintendoeverything.com/circle-entertainment-will-release-ambition-of-the-slimes-in-the-west/

They will easily hit 5 million. 10 million or more is even possible.

@SH007ME The eshop maintanence has made thai impossible for us east coasters :/

It's already at 18% of its goal withon 24 hours...this might actually happen.

This is PURRfect! Soon all my my enemies will be saying meOW as I will bring CATastrophe to their kingdoms and I will CLAWS the destruction of them all!

FUR there is nothing that can stop me.

@retro_player_22

Hey the IOS Layton really doesn't count. It's a mobile spinoff.

Also I need to get back to the Layton games....I kinda stopped midway through miracle mask...

People going overboard with reactions to this.

The UK is not 7-9% of the global economy and the UK is one of Nintendo's weaker regions anyways.

Where is the shovel knight 64 option?

So basically Nintendo said "The Wii U is dead and we are burying it" but with PR spin acting like its a good thing( which it is actually. Wii u needs to die so we can have a fresh start that might actually get a good non indie game more than three times a year.)

I like my Wii U but let's not kid ourselves. Notable retail games release about as often as a unicorn fart during a blue moon.

SMT IV Apocalypse release date please.

I need that Boo Amiibo.

@TheNomad

Did you forget Camerupt already exists?

You make it sound like 400K is low and that wwe should have expected much more.

@MasterWario

Well if not every single game got exploits Nintendo would obviously not take anything down as it would not be worth it anymore.

And now everyone freaks out and says how incompetent Nintendo is even though several developers have clearly been given access to Dev kits including EA, Sqaure Enix, koei, Namco etc.

Also NDA's exist. For example "we haven't heard any new from Nintendo so we don't have any announcements" doesn't really sound like "Nintendo has told the entire company literally nothing about NX." Could easily just be a dodge.

Dexter can suck it. Rotom pokedex is where it is at.

@Tagong

Your in luck than..probably.

"I'm looking in to ports now and 3DS is something I'm interested in, but I can't make any promises at this point. I do plan to bring it to as many consoles as I can though!

This is the response I got when I asked concernedape about it on Twitter.

@Nintendude789

Sales are low because market saturation and most the heavy hitters are hitting in the second half the of the year. We have had some games like Kirby and dragon quest monsters do a lot but the system sellers and the million sellers all hit in the second half of the year.

Monster Hunter Stories
Dragon Quest XI
Pokemon Sun/Moon
Yokai Watch 3
Puzzles and Dragons X
Etc.

@LegendOfPokemon

Xenoblade
Binding of Issac
Lifespeed
Futuridium EP deluxe
Wind up knight 2.

It would be at least the sixth actually.

@Malakai Its probably developed with Unity. Which technically can run on 3DS but Unity themselves strongly recommends only using it with New 3DS.

It's almost certainly a development engine issue not a power issue. Switching to a different engine would increase dev time and costs.

This looks really cool.

Localize it. If you localized freakin extreme butoden and had some success with it than this can do even better,

Mighty Cringe.

I hate how loosely used weaboo and Otaku are used.

Liking anime or Japanese video games does not make one a weaaboo. Being obsessed with anime, and Japan in general to a absurd degree is what makes one a weaaboo. With how loosely people use the term you might as well call some who wants to go on a vacation to Paris a " Franceaboo" or some who wants to dive in the barrier reefs a "reefeaboo"

Anyways the game only did disappointingly if you had unrealistic expectations. It did 185K in the US between November and December 2015(we know this due to the usual NPD leaks on Neogaf) and debuted at #1 in France. Those are solid results for a new IP and the only reason some people proclaimed it as a flop was because every had this silly idea that it was the new Pokemon and would sell like it even outside Japan.

Hopefully we get Puzzles and dragons X as well...

UK stop having garbage taste and buy more Nintendo games geez...

Rowlett.

Which is unusual. I usually go with water or fire,

Gen 1. Pikachu.
Gen 2. Thyphlosion
Gen 3 Swarmpert
Gen 4 infernape
Gen 5 Samurott
Gen 6 Greninja

This is my first time starting a gen with a grass starter.

RCMADIAX...please stop. Just stop making a new piece of garbage ever month or two.

"Metoroid"

Autocorrect wasn't even a thing back than Nintendo SMH.

How the **** do they not have the Vita and 3DS versions ready by now?

You think a two year or whatever delay would let them make it a concurrent launch.

At the least give us a rough release estimate and some gameplay footage. You make it feel like those versions don't even exist and that is insulting to your backers who gave money to hit that stretch goal.

2016 is 2013 2.0 for 3DS.

RCMADIX needs to stop polluting the eshop with garbage. Pretty much every game of his I see I immediately think "this looks like no effort generic piece of garbage"

He clearly does not have the money, talent or drive to make quality products. The best he can achieve is "passable for a bargain bin price" and often times completely misses the mark.

If the gameplay was stellar I could easily forgive the shortcomings in graphics and somewhat in music.

I feel like he either doesn't care about quality or simply doesn't have the talent and drive to do anything above "cheap iPhone app" level of quality, He should find a new career that suits him better.

To add to this I feel like the extreme quantity of games he puts out destroys any chance of his games being good. This is what the twentieth game he has put on eshop with his one man team? How can such a fast output with a single person produce any sort of thoughtful, polished content?

His business model disgusts me and I feel bad for anyone who buys his games. If you see this RCMAXDIX please rethink your business model or choice of career.

Animal crossing is pretty much the best choice for mobile.

It's a Huge series. Last two handheld games sold 10 million+. A spinoff sold over 3 million in under a year and got people to buy 25 million Amiibo cards. Both AC and mobile are huge in Japan. It's gonna make a lot of money.

Only 800K for Wii U? Well that pretty much tells us that we are getting basically nothing for it this year <_<

A 350% drop won't happen if you have some killer apps to prop it up Like Smash, Mario Kart, and Splatoon have done.

Extra inventory space is great.

A game that is all about the loot having super limited inventory was one of my main complaints. Great game but that was just a " what were they thinking?" Kinda thing ya know?

I have seen sets with waaaaaaaaaaay more to them for a lower price.

Also Lego mine craft feels like such a pointless thing. Why on earth buy a toy set that costs 240$ Based on a game that you can make structures hundreds of times larger and more complex in?

So much for late spring...that is more than halfway through summer XD

Heist was great.

Really only issue I had was it needed a tad more variety.

@Utena-mobile So many people never even play the games they buy on steam let alone finish them....

All those sales cause people to have stupid huge backlogs.

This game looks sooooooo good! The Mechas are a much better gimmick than then hyper vacuum thing especially as they actually mix with your copy abilities. Plus is cool having some more modern/urban levels in Kirby. Usually it's either straight up fantasy/nature type levels with a few space/ship levels.

Aside from the base game we get Meta Knightmare, 3D rumble and team Kirby clash!

Plus the new Kirby Amiibo is awesome(and UFO is my favorite copy ability)

I am super hyped!
