Jap developers will prefer Nintendo
handheld, look at Dragon Quest sales on the 3ds, and the original DS... look at monster hunter sales on the 3ds... every
game you seen for the 3ds will now have newer
versions with newer hd graphics so now when jap developers make a ps4
game they do not have to think about how they will downgrade it to fit on the NX... with the NX being more powerful than the Vita, and Wii U.... if it use the Tegra 2 chip it will be right next to ps4 1.8 teraflops or higher, but most likely if they use that, Nintendo might underclock it to increase battery power, but lets say they lock it to ps4 1.8 teraflops... every
game for ps4 will be on the NX... and this is where the fear comes from... the 3ds have many exclusives, only thing that hold it back was graphics, now that wont be the issue
in the NX... look how they announce Dragon quest 11 for NX already... Square Enix is thinking about money... and which console sold most
of their
games... the 3ds... so do not be surprised every big
game from Square Enix and other Japanese developers come to the NX... and if they are anything like CAPCOM they will rather save money and make their
game for one console aka the NX like they do with Monster Hunter... me personally I can not wait to see all my favorite
games on the 3ds
in better graphics... i am a RPG lover and the 3ds have some classics that I love... only thing Nintendo have to worry about is how Western and European side
of the world will feel about the new
handheld... Japan will love it,
handheld sell the most, so it wont take long for NX to pass ps4 sales... but if they can get the attention
of western and european... then Sony have reasons to worry and their fans
