Any reason why the DS is practically dead in Japan with consumers moving to the fast growing 3DS, but not in US/Europe?

I mean I know the Japanese get the best deal with the 3DS at the moment but it is such a significant difference, 3DS is x35~40 the DS sales in JP but in the US it wasn't even x2 the DS sales.

What gives?

apple.

I don't know what you see in the UK but i've gone from seeing every kid with a gaming system in public playing a DS to now a ~60/40 split in favor of iTouch/IPad.

yep.

and kids want an ipod touch or an ipad fro christmas not a handheld... xmas 2012 will be even more massive for ipads.

you know it.  i know it.  ~3 others on this site know it.  but it will take the complete bankrupcy of sony for and a massive GenOverGen contraction for nintendo before anyone else accepts the trends.  oh the power of wishful thinking...  i might be a fanboy but that doesn't make me stupid.
