>>36779924The problems with the 3DS games were lack of content not hardware power.
With the file size of Gen 6, if they were careful they probably could have put all of the regions and everything in them in (not that I want an all regions game, I'm just saying there was more than enough space for all of their content) and they STILL used less than half the possible space for a 3DS card with Gen 7.
The 8 GB game cards being more expensive to produce isn't an argument.
A.) People would have paid an extra five bucks for way more content and B.) they wouldn't have even had to charge that extra money because they can buy in much greater bulk for this series.
Companies are only leery to do that when they don't know how much they will sell. Everyone knows how Pokémon sells.
