Genuinely upset that most of them I've seen, (and for the wii as well) have like half if not more of the game 2D when its for a console (not handhelds).
Why shouldn't they be 2d just because its a console game?
We're already past the point with the 3DS and Vita where there is a serious technological barrier preventing 3D games on handhelds, or being impressed just because a console game is in 3d.
Honestly, it probably has to do with it being significantly easier/cheaper to make a good 2D game, whereas unless you have some seriously good ideas, your 3D game will be at best mediocre.
