In Japan, most video game series spin off cell phone side games. Usually they're tie-ins with console releases, and not years-old games, so if you're really lucky it actually heralds an upcoming announcement, but that's unlikely.
Most likely the franchise is just on the back burner, and this is as much a marketing effort to keep it in the public mind (without spending millions of dollars) in between actual releases, and perhaps used to gauge public desire for a real sequel. If it fails, the series is finished; if it sells wildly, a new game will follow. (If it's just lukewarm, who knows.) Given that this will have no bearing on a future console PE release, unless it does extremely well or badly, why the intense hatred? Just petulant that the market realities of one nation are so different from yours? You can hold on until you get your PE TRIPLE on your PS TRIPLE.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
