@theonestarr: This gen NSMB, Animal Crossing Wild World, Nintendogs, Brain Training, More Brain Training, Mario Kart DS all sold on par with Pokemon D/P, meaning that Pokemon is no longer what keeps the handhelds afloat. There's been other 6 titles that had the same effect, and all of them have a console counterpart (save for Nintendogs).
