What are the YTD numbers for 3DS?

Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Nintendo has shipped 2.68m for the whole year.

Chartz has it at around 6m sold.

OT: A shame that the 3DS won't sell half of what the GBA did on NA.

Congrats 3DS well deserved. Will end up being my favorite handheld of all time if they keep up the games.

3DS should slow down massively in 2015 in Japan as it closes down 20m. I would think it shuld manage it by January 2016 maybe even middle 2016.

If another Pokemon Gen comes, it will outsell the PSP by the end of 2016-beginning of 2017 (I'm expecting the next Pokemon to come in 2 years). Maybe before if YW keeps its popularity, but it seems Level-5 will milk it to hell.

Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.
