GBA would've sold 110-120 million or so if it had not been prematurely replaced.
I've said this before, I travel a lot for work so I'm constantly in airports and I see hundreds if not thousands of kids with their family ... the ratio to tablet/phones to portables is staggering. I see like maybe one 3DS/Vita for every 15-20 kids playing on a tablet/their parent's phone.
I had the funny experience on one of my recent flights where I was sitting across two elementary age girls and their mom, both the girls had their own tablet and they're playing games, and I brought out my 3DS, and the look on their faces was like "what in the hell is *that* thing", lol, I chuckled.
