Again... Apple is NOT competition to Nintendo. People don't buy Iphones JUST to play games. 3DS is purely a game machine, Iphone/Ipad/Ipod are NOT. It's as foolish as claiming the PCs are a threat to home consoles. They are simply different markets, and different products meant for different things. If my toaster starts playing games, will that be another competition to Nintendo's handheld market as well?

People are just trying in desperation to find another way to show that "nintendo is teh doomed!" since they now are leading the console market and have like 70% of the portable market.

Yeah, that article was the best. Apple has over 50% handheld market share! Console gaming is teh DOOMED!

I think you may be missing the point though.  If MOST people already have an iphone, or a device like it, and they are satisfied with the half baked games (not very thorough etc...) then why should that person go and buy another handheld from Nintendo or Sony like they used to?  That is what needs to be answered.
