No casual games on the 3DS?

Alpolio · Jan 30, 2012

During a recent investor Q&A, the observation was brought up to Nintendo President Satoru Iwata that the 3DS has seen significant growth in popularity among those who classify themselves as "hardcore" gamers. The system's adoption among the casual audience, however, has been much slower, largely due to the relative lack of software that would appeal to that kind of player.

As for why such software hasn't yet been made a priority, Iwata cites the company's intention to first placate its hardcore fans before attempting to expand the market. "For the Nintendo 3DS, we have to first maintain the situation in which the current owners of the Nintendo 3DS will be satisfied," he said. "We cannot put too much priority on expanding the entire user demographic at present. It is important to maintain a good sense of balance here."

The real problem that the 3DS is facing is that standalone handhelds are a dying breed. Everyone games on their smartphones these days.
