It's the best the hardware can do. To even release Xenoblade in its butchered mobile form they had to create a ramped up 3DS specifically for that game.

3DS doesn't have enough processing power to make better models so it uses low quality chibi shit.

Also chibi is the worst style.
>>
Because 240p makes them think they should do chibi to make it more easily visible, even though you can do non-chibi and have it be visible fine on the screen if you actually have good art direction

I like chibi if done well but a lot of games that use it don't do it well and it just feels shoehorned

Chibi can be done OK but usually when you take a previously 3D game or series and make the next entry chibi, it's going to look awful in comparison. The only chibi I'm really okay with are in DQ games(if you can call Toriyama's midgets chibi) and Etrian Mystery Dungeon. Those styles lend itself to chibi very well.

Not too trilled about 3ds versions games. Xenoblade seriously looked like shit on the 3ds and NOT like the bullshots that they advertised. I'm sure any other ports it gets will also look like shit.

Because it's easier to make Chibi/low-polygon models look nice when you're pushing with the weaker hardware, because you can more easily sustain your framerate with simplistic models and textures.

When you have stronger hardware, your competitors make your graphics look like shit if you go chibi, so people will simply not buy your product. No game on the 3DS looks quite as good as SMT or Monster Hunter, so it's honestly not too bad to go Chibi with it. However if you tried this on the Nogaems Vita, it'd look embarrassing, so it simply wouldn't sell.

That's not a excuse to not animate them. It can still be a tabletop rpg but with all moves animated in HD. It would be glorious if it wasn't stuck in a really low spec console.

Less polygons makes it easier to make the models look at least somewhat decent. Even with the New 3DS, Xenoblade and other such games look jagged as fuck. It just the best they can do with what they have, but also, most developers know there's money in the 3DS since Nintendo effectively has a monopoly on the handheld gaming market, with things like Vita and mobile gaming barely putting up a fight.
>>
>>324401708
I don't care about resolution.
Power alone is useless and pointless, specially on a handheld that's supposed to deliver something else over a regular console or PC.
I suppose it's necessary when all you want to do is a ports system like the Vita.

Does anyone else just hope to fucking god the next handheld isn't a gimmick or clamshell and just returns to being gameboys? Nintendo was at its handheld best with the GBA. The sales and library don't lie.

Since the DS and the touch gimmick their handheld titles suffered the same as their mainline consoles. Casualization, intrusive gimmick's being shoehorned (Castlevania DoS comes to mind immediately) and so many shovelware titles I could choke on them. The DS did have its quality titles but it seems to be runoff from the GBA. 3DS is just a weak piece of shit that needed a hardware upgrade it was so underpowered. It's only "ok"as far as library goes.

I just want another gameboy man...no more underpowered handhelds. The next one Nintendo pushes out HAS TO BE at least a little stronger than vita for them not to be called out on bullshit.

Because Nintendo doesn't like to pay royalties on technology, and just like CDs and DVDs, the "reality chip" is a Sony patent. There's a reason why Nintendo entries of otherwise PlayStation centric IPs look the way they do.

Twin Snakes managed to circumvent this by allocating all of the GameCubes resources into the realistic graphics, but had to optimize everything else to be a cartoon.

Nintendo consoles simply cannot do it.

I'm all for dropping the 3d and using the power for the games themselves, but the clamshell and secondary touchscreen are more than just mere gimmicks.
One make the system more portable without extra cost and the other allows for great games that use it properly.
The problem comes from devs that think they have to use it

Yeah its stilla gimmick though. Nintendo uses gimmicks as a centralized reason to NOT have decent hardware, this cant be denied. I know handhelds are honestly not for raw horsepower but it cant even be reasonably denied that they've been fucking us over since the DS/Wii. Nintendo needs to stop being fags, drop the gimmicks and focus entirely on good hardware and games again. It sold the GB, it sold the color, it sold the fucking GBA and it can sell a new handheld. If 3DS's lackluster sales compared to their other handhelds (hell you can even cite the WiiU as proof too) people are fucking tired of weak hardware and gimmicks. Give us a real handheld again.
>>
>>324402763
The exact reason the older handhelds had more quality games is that the graphical standards were lower, so you had more room for exploring new ideas without the graphics inflating the budget

>>
>>324403284
Yea but the standard for graphical horsepower to hardware cost is FAR above 3DS. Nintendo literally tried to rip us off with the hardware. THere's a reason devs struggle with it, there's a reason N3DS had to be released. There's a reason they got caught inflating the price of 3DS and had to drop it. It's severely underpowered even for its day and age of release. There's no excuse for it that can be damage control'd. Even if you dont inflate the cost of graphical development the standard of hardware is far below what devs and thier teams need and expect now. Nintendo is just being greedy and you know it.

I'd be fine with just better graphical capabilities with the two screens. Nintendo has caused me to legitimately enjoy having two screens for games instead of just one, especially when menus are just always right fucking there without interrupting the flow of the game.
Being able to switch things on the fly or sometimes just do things on the lower screen is fucking great.

That's completely unrelated to the gimmicks and purely because of smartphones.

Lets be real, if Nintendo focused on a single screen again you'd get more bang out of your hardware rather than the handheld struggling to power 2 screens killing the battery life and graphical ability because it has to display across 2 screens.

Not only that but you got the 3D gimmick with the 3DS killing its abilities further its just a fucking joke. This is the main reason I just want another damn gameboy. DS and Wii were one time gimmick sellers, gimmicks are done and they need to focus on hardware and software again.

>>324403853
Because Nintendo is trying to sell their platforms based on gimmicks with weak hardware. If it's not selling anymore then the gimmick has failed. Standardization in a medium means it's become the norm (like D-pads, rumble, analog) yet the touch gimmick is failing and falling off in gaming. Its standardized for smartphones and ipads and the like but for gaming no one really cares anymore. People want a standard way of controlling games, they dont want gimmicks anymore and thats why the touch gimmick is as such.

PSP sold 80mil, it's not as successful as Nintendo's handhelds, but that certainly wasn't a disaster.
And better games are subjective, when VNs are all DS players talk about and things like Fire Emblem and Bravely Default clutter "best" 3DS lists, I'm not so sure either is a good device with a good library.
>>
>>324404148
The PSP sold 80million units or so, I'd hardly call that a failure unless you're a retarded moron. As far as Vita Sony dropped the ball with marketing and localization and proprietary hardware like the memory card, they got caught being greedy. You also must consider that its still Nintendo in the handheld market they're going against, so they were already doomed.

Next deflection?

Clearly it does when it's not selling units. You clearly lack reading comprehension or are ignoring reality like most retards. So I'll say it again, standardization makes something not a gimmick, if the gimmick fails to stay standardized then it goes back to being as such. WiiU failed with its touch pad, 3DS failed to sell as much as DS or even GBA, vita failed to even match 3DS. It's a failed gimmick, isn't selling consoles, its done and no one really wants it.

As far as the clamshell it's just a battery and resource drain and a pain for devs to have to give a fuck about. This is why a single screen is better.

Because it's CHEAPER. And it worked so well the last hundred of times they did it so they kept doing it.

Except it backfired on them for the Wii U.
>>
I also hope they ditch the dual-screen shit. It only adds cost to the thing. Developers are not innovating with it anymore and it's not being used in a way that adds any significant benefits to the player.

But the most important thing should be that they make the thing comfortable to use, with decent buttons instead of the slimy cheap shit on the 3DS, and a fucking HD screen already. The 3DS is an unacceptably shitty product by itself for its time (and price).
>>
>>324404125

Nohr + Hoshido + Revelations is as big as Awakening, and that's not even that big.

Their gamecube discs could only hold 1.5gb of data compared to everyone else using full size discs which holds 4.7gbs. Basically nintendo cheaped out on hardware again as well as being cheaper to make mini dvds instead of full size ones.

No it's not. It's not a significant benefit. It's marginalat best. I can play RPGs perfectly fine without the dual screen. The only difference in RPGs is a few button presses. MonHun and Kid Icarus could work just fine with a second analog stick, which those retards at Nintendo refuse to make a decent version of. Yes, more of the screen might be covered, but with a dual screen you end up with a smaller main screen anyway, so who cares?
