It doesn't have the innovative hook that drew people en masse to the Nintendo DS, and is going to be affected (at least in a very small way) by smartphone/tablet gaming.

I'm guessing 113.8m

Will eclipse GBA, so I'll say 91 mil for 3DS.

160m

120 million

We still wait your prediction !

lol, the funny thing is i always do my prediction before everybody else! ok my next post will be my answer with details check back here again in 5mins!

120m sounds realistic to me.

My Prediction

2011⇒ 12.5mil (around)
2012⇒ 13.8mil (around)
2013⇒ 20.0mil [5.6mil currently(33.3mil). I'll go with my prediction that i said since jan!]
2014⇒ 16.5mil
2015⇒ 14.0mil
2016⇒ 13.5mil
2017⇒ 12.0mil
2018⇒ 11.0mil
2019⇒ 6.0mil (3DS Successor comes out!)
2020⇒ 2.5mil (Fades out)

Lifetime around = 121mil! I think this gen will last longer, Minimum i see is 100mil /// maximum 140mil!

2014 will still sell good with 2ds, hopefully one more 2ds model, doesn't necessarily have to be an XL! With SSB+ Monolith secret title i think good numbers

2015 will have pokemon Z!!! I think it'll still do well but decline

2016 will have ruby/sappire remakes!
