Won't happen. They've already ramped up 3DS family production with now the New 3DS XL, New 2DS XL, 2DS, New 3DS, 3DS, 3DS XL, it's no surprise they're having problems producing ONE version of Switch, they're cutting themselves thin off the 3DS line!!

WOW! "Several" 3DS games is two- TWO!!!

First, if you actually bothered t do homework, you'd see that unlike Dreamcast, and its 18 months on the market, the 50 month long lifespan of the Wii U turned profitable by the end, Sega lost money on DC. Nintendo relies on 1st party games, it's why they sold 100 million Wii U games, DC isn't even close to that total in software sales. Crap journalists do crap jobs, and articles like this show how crappy they really are.

@gamingdevil800: That's exactly it, because worldwide, Switch is constrained, but PS4 continues to top it outside the US, which by the way isn't exactly losing that much to the US when it comes to overall sales, because it's able to top it worldwide.

@zinten: which has to be using a 3rd party source, Switch and 3DS don't connect to each other, but can connect to the same server, which is likely how the save transfer is going to work.

@Thanatos2k: depends how much 3rd parties want to invest in older technology. If they were still making games for 360 and PS3, you could easily see them just straight port over to Switch like they did early on with Wii U games. What hurt Wii U more than anything was Nintendo themselves. Lack of 1st party content kept from driving the system to Wii sales- it wasn't Carnival games why people wanted Wii's, it was that damn pack in Wii Sports and a fitness craze that drove it like every other fad, and since Nintendo couldn't hold that market, because the fad was over by 2011, the Wii U was only supported by Nintendo faithful- roughly 15 million, which sounds about right as the typical 3DS owner has 4, which would put it at 60 million total.

@KotomineKirei: 3DS was pretty close to PSP in terms of power, so it could handle plenty of games that were still coming out on PSP at the time, similar to Wii U getting 360 and PS3 games early on.

They'll put games on devices where the players are? Is that why Fifa18 is on the 3DS? Wait a minute!....

@Elranzer: doubtful, the New 3DS had those Famicom buttons from the start, all they do when they release a new version is replace the outer shell.
