@axt113: DS sales starting to decline? Definitely not; 2009 was not only the DS's biggest year yet, it was the biggest selling system in a single year ever, handheld or console. As far as waiting until Move and Natal establish themselves, that's exactly what Nintendo should NOT do. Doesn't mean they won't, but they shouldn't rest on their laurels; that's what got them in trouble against the Playstation.

Except, 2010 is down yoy from 2009, so there is a decline, and with the lineup of DS this year, the decline was apparent even before the 3DS was announced
Nope, what got them in trouble against the Playstation was the lack of games to appeal to the wider audience, instead they launched with games like Mario 64, instead of a Super Mario, and repeated that mistake with GCN, they tried making me too consoles which fail, kind of like what MS and Sony are doing with their motion controllers, this is what got Nintendo into trouble, its also why the Wii is a huge success, because they changed their ways, now MS and Sony are trying the Me-too route, and that will be even worse for them.
Move and NATAL won't establish themselves, so Nintendo can wait for them to flop, check my sig, MOVE is already an assured failure and NATAL is little better
