Forums - Sales Discussion - With what time it has left, can the 3DS pass the PSP in total million sellers?

 

Can the 3DS do whatever it is the OP is asking it to do for him?

Yes, explain below 21 29.17%
 
No, do not explain below,... 33 45.83%
 
Maybe 12 16.67%

Honestly the handheld market is a one-horse race at the moment. If Nintendo show the 3DS as much love as they've been showing lately, and keep pumping out Pokemon, Animal Crossing, and the like, I don't see why it wouldn't surpass the PSP.

Around the Network

Newly released or upcoming 3DS games that should/will do it:

The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes
Monster Hunter X
Fire Emblem Fates
Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam
Dragon Quest XI
Yo-Kai Watch Busters: Moon Rabbit Team
Yo-Kai Watch 3
Next Pokémon
Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3?
Monster Hunter Stories?
Pokémon Go trolol



Yes, sure.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Of course it will :)
According to vgcharts 3DS has 40M sellers and PSP 56
So for me the games that will reach a million:
41) Fantasy Life
42) Sonic Generations
43)Pilotwing Resort
These three have great legs :)
44)Yokai Watch 3
45)Yokai Watch 3 (the third game)
46)Yokai Watch Busters Moon Rabbit Team
47) Yokai Three Kingdoms
48)Pokemon Z
49)Monster Hunter X
50)Monster Hunter Stories
51)Mario & Luigi Paper Jam Bros
52)Hyrule Warrios Legends
53)Fire Emblem Fates
54)Zelda TriForce Heroes
55)Dragon Quest XI
56)Dragon Quest VII (if it is released worlwide)
57)Dragon Quest VIII (if it is released worlwide)
58)Bravely Second
59)Pokemon Super Mistery Dungeon
60)Mario & Sonic at theRio 2016 Olympic Games
61)Metroid Prime Federation Force

62)Dragon Quest Monsters Joker 3

63)Final Fantasy Explorers

I´m not saying that all of these games will reach the million mark, but all of them has a chance :)



I hope yes. If the 3DS can do that, with a sizeable disadvantage in user base, then we can make a strong case for the Handheld market not dying at all. The smartphones just took the casual crowd,

Which is what i believe and hope, since despite having a samsung galaxy S6, i have still to find a game even remotely as enjoyable as the average handheld game, let alone close to the jewels such as ALBW or FE:Awakening.

Considering that the "NX" platform, IF it's a "Fusion" concept being both their new portable AND home console unit, won't likely be out until 2017, then yes, I think 3DS has that chance.

Nintendo just recently said that they are in no hurry to replace the 3DS. And why would they be? The system itself is still selling well, and the games are selling well.



Yes, it will, and I only have one kydney.



I'm pretty sure that it can do it.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Wow, 3DS isn't dead yet after all. Especially in Japan. Forgot all about Dragon Quest XI and Yo-Kai Watch 3 and DQM3. That'll set Japan on fire.



I think it has a chance.

Off topic: I don't think TriForce Heroes will sell 1 million
