Because it has the graphical horsepower of an iPhone 4s
The technical reasons including but not limited to "Nintendo told us to go fuck ourselves."

  But they do because they control their developer ecosystem.
  
  I agree that consoles should allow competing stores, but that's not the current reality.
It does seem like it would be an amount of work.
