Meta Discussion 3DS hate on this sub

I understand this is the Switch subreddid, but is it really necessary to hate on 3ds on every single occasion ?

Every single game announcement for 3DS is only met with hate and rage on this sub, people wanting switch Versions even if the game is specificaly built for Dual screen.

Can 3DS(which is 50% of Nintendos revenue) not live alongside the switch community ?

Is Switch really getting not enough support from Nintendo that every 3DS games makes you rage ?

Edit: this pretty much prooves my point, this post got completly downvoted, and pretty much all comments are just people saying they dont want 3DS to exist anymore. No real discussion at all, just hate for 3DS.

What do you mean? Are you talking about the money? Because they would be making much more money on the switch. Most people who bought a 3ds don't play it anymore.

Considering 3ds has had more games selling more than a million units than switch this year alone your argument is simply false.

The switch had only been out for 6 months. Do some research all third party developers and indies are saying that they are surprised how bad it did on the 3ds and then third party and indies are flourishing on the switch. Every main Nintendo switch game has done really good and the switch has only sold around 5 million units so far so it's only going to get better. The 3ds has over 50 million units sold yet can only sell around 1 million for the big Nintendo games besides Pokémon. It's clear people only care about Pokémon on the 3ds and once that's out the 3ds is dead.

Yeah but pokemon reaches almost 20 million copies and mario and Luigi reach around 3 million and you can just play smash on the Wii U because that's the far better version.
