Reggie on 3DS problems: third party support, more

Reggie Fils-Aime recently commented on current problems the Nintendo 3DS is facing.

 

"I think the big third party content is still there and is still coming. The Resident Evil: Mercenaries title that just launched was high quality, and the Resident Evil: Revelations title coming in 2012 is going to be an even more significant step forward," Fils-Aime said. "Very positive support coming from Capcom. We have support from Ubisoft, Sega and more. So the games are there. Having said that, I think the launch of 3DS affirmed that it is the role of Nintendo first party content to drive the install base. Those the roles that Ocarina of Time, Star Fox, the Mario games, Kid Icarus and Luigi's Mansion 2 will play. Those are the titles that will drive the install base. We hoped that third party titles at launch would drive that base, and that didn't happen to the degree that we needed."

 

Another possible problem the 3DS may be facing is its naming. Does the general public realize that this is a completely new product and not a revised DS? Fils-Aime responded: "All of the consumer data we have – and we have a lot – indicates that the consumer understands what the 3DS is, and they understand that it is different than the DS family of handhelds."

 

"I do believe we differentiated the product. Having said that, what I don't think we did was make sure key [demonstrations] of key features were available to take home. Meaning... where was that key first party title that really showed off the capabilities of the system graphically – and not just from a 3D perspective, but overall graphically – as Ocarina of Time does today? That wasn't there soon enough in the launch window. Where were the digital offerings that rewarded you for taking the device on-the-go, connecting to SpotPass hot spots that we've negotiated? That wasn't available until June. So these were things that consumers knew about, but we weren't paying them off with functionality until months after the product had launched."

 

A brand new 3DS color is coming to North America next month.

If you think 3D on your 3DS sucks big time why did you buy one? If you wanted Zelda that badly there are a myriad of workarounds that didn't require you wasting all that money.

You do realise the new color is a new option for new buyers. Sure, someone could rebuy the device for the new color, but that's their decision.

So far out of all the game on the market, Zelda has the best 3D effects of them all. So....you're about to be pretty disappointed. You might as well glue your 3D switch to off.
