EA Games has stopped making games on the 3DS

CEO Peter Moore from EA Games had the following to say:

“We were supportive of both of those platforms, but then you’ve got finite resources and you’ve got teams that say, ‘We really think that two or three years from now, these are the platforms that people are going to be consuming games on.’ And you look at the quality of what you can do on phones and tablets… Sometimes strategy is not about what you do but what you don’t do, and you have to make some hard calls when you’ve got only so many people. To my point, we’ve got to be planning for FY 17 and 18. Do you think the Vita and 3DS are going to be around in some shape or fashion by then on a scale level?”

Considering the 3DS was one of the best selling consoles just last year, do you think it’s wise for EA to stop making software for the popular portable system? Leave you’re thoughts and comments below.
