Mobile games just make more money now than console games. It only makes sense to aim for casual gamers on the Apple Arcade or Android Play store.

It's a problem in that it somewhat alienates the hardcore console players. But the console market is shrinking. That's true for all fanbases, not just PuyoPuyo.

The only stuff that gets money in the console market are super mega AAA games that reach millions, like FFVII remake. But these mega-games cost so much that there's no risk or creativity anymore. (I like PuyoPuyo Tetris's style, it was a risk and a bit different. We need game makers to take risks like that)
