Please tell me you're being facetious. Apple's iphone is a massive success and it's app market rakes in crap loads of cash. This wouldn't be the case if all those wonderful flash games were available for free. Which is the exact reason behind Nintendo's exclusion of flash on their system.Jonci said:Bad move, Nintendo. Don't this companies ever pay attention the failures of others (ie Apple's iPhone).
idk why they would buy a 3DS. I would think that the reason would be to keep up with Nintendo's side of the handheld market but that's absurd, they obviously bought it for 3D and flash!GreatTeacherCAW said:I don't think my first question would be "Why doesn't the 3DS have flash support?" I think it would be "Why the hell did you buy a 3DS?"
EXACTLY! I don't want to play some crappy internet game, all I want to do is watch Youtube on the go!JoJoDeathunter said:Honestly I don't care that much, I'm getting a 3DS for the proper retail games, not for the internet flash games.
Am I the only one that thinks the whole "Drowning in cheap games" thing comes off as a little hypocritical? Sure its hard to find a quality game on any platform sometimes, but none so difficult as a Nintendo console! Look at the mountainous, obscene mass of shovelware that reaches store shelves for the Wii! Yet they continue to put up the facade of a "quality" gaming platform.Andy Chalk said:No Flash Support For Nintendo 3DS Browser
In March, president Satoru Iwata said the game industry is "drowning" in cheap, crappy games churned out and playable on multiple platforms, including handhelds. "These platforms have no motivation to maintain the value of the game," he told his audience at the 2011 Game Developers Conference. "Quantity is how they profit. The value of software does not matter to them."
Never would have noticed if you didn't tell me. Getting a game system for an internet browser is a terrible idea as always. The DS browser sucked. The PSP browser sucked. The 3DS browser will suck, and I'll never use it just like the DS and PSP browsers. And it's a game platform, not a smartphone or tablet, so I don't care that the browser sucks.Andy Chalk said:What say you, 3DS owners? Are you outraged by this inexcusable omission, or would you never have noticed it if someone hadn't brought it to your attention?
Yes, there is a mountain of shovelware for Wii. But none of it is made by Nintendo (it's mostly Ubisoft's shit). Hence, no hypocrisy.Rontothehills said:Am I the only one that thinks the whole "Drowning in cheap games" thing comes off as a little hypocritical?

Um... I think you need Flash to be able to watch YouTube... Or will this thing support HTML5?Greenie3 said:EXACTLY!

But see, the diffrence is that they do it right. Somehow. All those crapy games for the Wii are diffrent because they are a real company. Someway.Rontothehills said:Am I the only one that thinks the whole "Drowning in cheap games" thing comes off as a little hypocritical?
