The 3DS should end up passing 80 Million even with the lowest projected yearly sales. Let's say the 3DS does 10 Million this year and in 2015 (which it should do more, especially if there are big releases.) That's around 62 Million. Then we can drop it down to 8 Million for 2016 (accounting for a minor drop) and then you have 70 Million.
After that it should continue to drop, but by the time it's life is over it'll already be north of 80 Million. Maybe even 90 Million, if we are, again, taking into consideration big software releases.
Really rough prediction, but then again I'm not sure how Nintendo is planning on the 3DS' life to go past this year.
