That's a worrying low Vita number, but we've come to expect that. It's sad, but it's too far gone at this point.

The 3DS number is perhaps more concerning, though. The system should be growing or at least remaining flat, however, it's heavily down. Concerning times lie ahead, maybe?


Not really, we kno in todays market HH arent going to be as big. 3DS #s might be low but it aint as bad as some might think, especially coming off of 2013 amazing library yet it sold as much as it did (with XY/LoZ/etc) is proof enough that market has shrunk alot. 

It would be fine if the 3DS was a secondary platform for Nintendo that they could just shrug off the handheld business shrinking to pre-1998 (Pokemon/GBC launch) levels ... but 3DS is supposed to be their lead product, all that much moreso now that Wii U is an all out flop. 

It's pretty bad, dude. No wonder Nintendo is rushing to make their senior citizen/soccer mom box. They badly need new revenue streams. 

They're almost certainly now looking at another fiscal year of losses, 3DS sales will be lower this year (hugely down in Japan) and Wii U is likely never going to drive much of any profit, they need another price cut at least.
