If Sony only makes a more Powerful PSP2, or tries to just piggy back off of Nintendo's ideas (again) The handheld will be an utter failure.

Sony's so threatened by the 3DS, that Yoshida guy had to ask Nintendo to lay off the 3D glasses bashing.

Nintendo's had handheld dominance for over 20yrs. That's not changing anytime soon.

Your last sentence means very little: it is not because Nintendo dominated for 20 years that will dominate with the 3DS (probably), it is the opposite, Nintendo will dominate for another gen (5-6-7 years) because of the 3DS.

Still, the past means a lot, but the present means more: Sony will have to chose it's main enemy, Nintendo or Apple. And both are giants. Plus this time the supports for 3DS is massive, with the bigger brands all there, and with hardware capable of things the GC (or even the Wii) couldn't. This are the main reasons why it is likely that the 3DS will be extremely succesful.

I disagree. Context is indeed important. True, any thing can happen, but due to Nintendo's historic dominance in this arena, it is unlikely..rather I'd not bet against them or bet that Sony has an ace up its sleeve to 'kill' the 3DS.

I wholeheartedly agree with the rest of your post though.
