I like how no one is talking about the Nintendo 3DS Price drop

[Alpha Six]

Most 3DS developers are already working on "future games." Any game that isn't out this very day is basically a "future game"-- because it's still in development.

If a developer was really far into their project and Nintendo dropped this device on them (which they probably did; developers hear about things way before the public does), then Nintendo would basically have to convince said developer to redo a huge chunk of their game for this new device, or develop it as-is; which leads to another point the article brought up; a separation between users that have the device and don't have the device, and the games developed for it.
